Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: MIDNIGHT MESSENGER(3)
Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: S Tarry
MIDNIGHT MESSENGER has shown some useful form on this surface and he drops to sprinting, possibly on the advice of his top class jockey who retains the ride on the son of Kahal who has drawn best of all. The Tarry inmate should be highly competitive in this opening contest.
Race 2: ACCIDENTAL TOURI(4)
Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: D Howells
ACCIDENTAL TOURIST continued her smart form on this course as she stayed on well for 2nd in a minor feature over an extra furlong a fortnight ago. She is no doubt better over this sprint distance though and can quickly return to winning ways with her top jockey retaining the ride
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 4: FIRE SONG(7)
Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: D Howells
FIRE SONG is gradually improving with experience and he ran on again when equipped with blinkers over a mile on the turf earlier this month. The son of Black Minnaloushe gave all the signs that he will relish tonight's extra furlong and hardly surprisingly Marcus keeps the ride. Of course the bay colt tries this surface but he will be aided by pole position and he has further scope for progress.
Race 5: FONTEYN(1)
Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: Y Govender
The long-time maiden FONTEYN has finished runner-up in 3 of her last 4 starts and she can get it right at this low level tonight. Her top jockey retains the ride on the daughter of Traffic Guard who should relish the extra furlong.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 7: CHAMBER MAID(5)
Jockey: S Veale - Trainer: D Drier
CHAMBER MAID has been slightly below-par in recent outings but this inmate from the Drier yard has a definite affinity for this surface. She was pipped in her only defeat on this course from three starts and she should bounce back to best tonight. The chestnut daughter of Western Winter will enjoy the likely cracking gallop.
