Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 4: PRETTY BALLERINA(3)

Jockey: W Kennedy   - Trainer:  P Peter 

PRETTY BALLERINA has consistent formline to her name and won her only start over this c&d. She was beaten 1.75L by TEHUANO in their last clash over a furlong further, but is 2.5kgs better off at the weights. There should not be too much between the two this afternoon.

TOP BET

Race 6: PINK(2)

Jockey: C Zackey  - Trainer: N Houdalakis

PINK has to be switched at a critical time in her last start and as a result should have finished a lot closer than she eventually did. With better luck in running, she should just about win this. 

Race 7: CONDOR GULCH(2)

Jockey: G Lerena   - Trainer: M De Kock 

CONDOR GULCH has the blinkers removed for todays outing. She starts from a good draw and has Gavin Lerena doing duty. If he is able to reproduce his penultimate run over this trip, he looks to be the one that they will all have to beat.

Race 8: FLORIDA QUAYS(1)

Jockey: W Kennedy    - Trainer: P Peter 

FLORIDA QUAYS is a filly taking on the boys, but she has consistent form and should give another good account of herself today. She has her second start for her new stable and could go one better today and record her third career win.

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:

Race 9: FICTICIOUS(3)

Jockey:  S Khumalo    - Trainer : C Jonker 

FICTICIOUS is the only runner on the day from the Chris Jonker stable. Her last six runs have been solid and with S'mango Khumalo retaining the ride, she looks to be the one to side with here.
