Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 2: NAMAQUALAND (7)
Jockey: R Danielson - Trainer: S Tarry

NAMAQUALAND has only had the one run where he was running on well over six furlongs. He was reported to have made an abnormal respiratory noise that day and did well to finish where he did. He steps up to seven furlongs this afternoon and if suited to the extra, he should be right up there in the mix. He was fancied in the betting market that day.

 
Race 4: MARTHA (3)
Jockey: G Lerena - Trainer: R Sage 

MARTHA showed good improvement when bumped up to nine furlongs last time out. She takes another hike in distance, but the manner in which she finished off her last start would suggest that she should handle the extra. With Gavin Lerena in the irons, she looks to be the one that they all have to beat.

 

TOP BET

Race 5: JACKO BOY (4)
Jockey: S Khumalo - Trainer: B Botes 

JACKO BOY attempts her hat-trick here and the manner in which she has won her last two starts over this distance, suggests this is very much on the cards. She finished strongly to win last time out and with in form S'manga Khumalo taking over the duties, she is very much the one to side with today. 

 
Race 6: FLY AWAY (7)
Jockey:W Kennedy -  Trainer: P Peter

The fillies could dominate the finish to this race, with first choice going to FLY AWAY. She has her peak run here and is, in fact, unbeaten over this distance. She will be looking to complete her trifecta this afternoon. 

 

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:

Race 8: IN CAHOOTS (5)
Jockey: M v. Rensburg - Trainer: M Houdalakis 

The Sean Tarry stable looks to have a strong hand in this race and he could fill three of the top four places. IN CAHOOTS may not be the stable elect, but he is taken for top choice. He was running on well in his last start over a mile and with Warren Kennedy up, the gelding could cause the upset.
