Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: MARADIVA (9)
Jockey: Kennedy W – Trainer: Peter P
MARADIVA hails from the visiting Paul Peter stable. He has finished second in his last two starts at the Vaal over this distance. It must be noted that multiple horses from his last form line have come out and won since. The son of Twice Over has been gelded, which may have done the trick. If all went well with his travels, he can shed his maiden tag.

Race 4: STAR ACT (2)
Jockey: De Gouveia D – Trainer: Humby S
STAR ACT showed good speed when winning her comeback run over this distance at Hollywoodbets Greyville. She was reported to be cut into on her right hind leg that day. The daughter of Jay Peg won her only attempt over this C&D. She will strip a much fitter horse this afternoon and with Diego De Gouveia retaining the ride, she should notch up her fourth career victory.
Race 7: ASTRIX (1)
Jockey: Kennedy W – Trainer: Peter P
ASTRIX stayed on strongly when finishing third behind Second Base in the Grade 3 London News Stakes last time. He was unlucky in the Grade 1 WSB Gauteng Summer Cup in his penultimate start as he had to check badly at the 1800m mark. The son of Vercingetorix is having his first run on this course and if suited to the track, he should find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 8: MVULAZANA(6)
Jockey: De Gouveia D – Trainer: Whitehead W
MVULAZANA followed up her maiden win with a good second-place finish over this distance at Hollywoodbets Greyville. She moved up like a winner that day, but found one too good in the form of Purple Merchant. The daughter of Soft Falling Rain has plenty of scope and she is the horse to beat.

Race 5: JOSHUA HOTSNAKE (1)
Jockey: De Gouveia D – Trainer: W Whitehead
JOSHUA HOTSNAKE was given a peach of a ride when winning his maiden over this distance at Hollywoodbets Greyville. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. He finished second in his only attempt over this C&D. The son of Noble Tune takes a rise in class today, but he has plenty of scope and should be up to the task at hand.
