Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: CORDILLERA (3)
Jockey: R Danielson - Trainer: S Tarry
The Sean Tarry yard holds a strong hand in this opening event on today's program and CORDILLERA may be the pick of them. She is a filly taking on the boys, but she has been running on well in her last two starts over slightly shorter and will enjoy the step-up in trip here.
Race 3: MADAM PATRICE (3)
Jockey: C Zackey - Trainer: C Spies
MADAME PATRICE is a speedy filly who showed her natural pace last time out over 1160M and is sure to enjoy the drop back to the minimum distance.
Race 4: TOUCH OF FATE (3)
Jockey: S Khumalo - Trainer: C Binda
TOUCH OF FATE is a speedy sort who was only just collared in the shadow of the post in his last start over this trip. He seems to be over this habit of giving away start at the jump and looks to be the one to side with here.
TOP BET
Race 6: PELICAN BAY (13)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: P Peter
PELICAN BAY has consistent recent formlines to his credit. He was running on well in his last start over 1450M, as he was in his previous outing over this distance. He looks to be the one to be with, but he is carded to run on 23 November and his performance in that event will need to be checked.
VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:
Race 7: PILLAROFTHEEARTH (10)
Jockey: M Khan - Trainer: R Magner
PILLAROFTHEEARTH ran on well in his last start over the c&d and it is encouraging that Mark Khan has retained the ride. He did finish 0.25L behind ARISTACHUS in that outing, but is 0.5kgs to the good at today's weights. The latter showed plenty of speed that day and there should not be too much to choose between the pair in the dash down to the finishing post.
