Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 3: JACKPOT JEWEL(12)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: E Verdonese

JACKPOT JEWEL attracted longshot betting support and caught the eye with a late finish for 4th on his debut last month. He finished just over one length adrift of SUMMER HOUSE that day but should make natural improvement and can reverse the formline.

 

TOP BET

Race 4: HEAVEN'S REWARD(3)
Jockey: G Lerena  - Trainer: N Houdalakis

HEAVEN'S REWARD showed a welcome return to form when she tired late after showing good speed over seven furlongs on this track in her comeback effort three weeks ago. Of course the first three entrants participated in last Saturday's Guineas. This bay daughter of Philanthropist will strip fitter and she should enjoy reverting to sprinting today. That said, she isn't favourably weight with the best weighted entrant OURO albeit the latter is at her best over slightly shorter. The consistent four-year old speedster holds a promising c & d record though.

 
Race 8: JENNY MCGEE(7)
Jockey: M V.Rensburg- Trainer: J Van Eck  

JENNY MCGEE had excuses for her most disappointing last run behind subsequent winner and quality sort Tamarina. She showed smart ability prior to that and after triumphing in the maiden ranks over this c & d, the bay daughter of Jay Peg stayed on for a creditable 4th in a smart field

 
Race 9: FIRE AND RESCUE(3)
Jockey: R Danielson  - Trainer: A Laird

FIRE AND RESCUE hit his top stride late when runner-up in his first venture around over this trip recently and he should continue to progress. His good draw gives him the slight edge of HUMOUR ME who also had an eye-catching last run over the mile. The Woodruff inmate has obvious scope for further improvement.

 

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:

Race 7: TOPMAST(2)
Jockey: K Zechner- Trainer: D Sham

An intriguing assessment contest where the three-year olds should dominate the betting market and the final outcome. TOPMAST seemed to just be in need of his comeback run over this c & d at a similar level recently but will strip much fitter today.
