Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: MANHATTAN (11)
Jockey: Hewitson L – Trainer: Tarry S
MANHATTAN is a filly taking on the males. She produced an eye-catching debut effort over 1200m on this course. She was slow into stride that day, but the manner in which she finished off her race was impressive. The daughter of Captain Of All would have gained from the experience and will enjoy the extra distance on offer. With the natural improvement that is expected, she should take a power of beating.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 3: SHANGANI (1)
Jockey: Kennedy W – Trainer: Snaith J
SHANGANI should have finished closer in his first run out the maidens, as he hung from the 400m mark. The manner in which he won on debut was ultra-impressive. The son of Soft Falling Rain tries the 2200m for the first time and on breeding, he should have no issues with the extra distance on offer. If keeping on a straight line, he should be the one to beat.
Race 6: UNDER YOUR SPELL (4)
Jockey: Hewitson L – Trainer: Tarry S
UNDER YOUR SPELL was super-impressive when winning her last start over this C&D. Despite jumping outwards at the start, she raced from a handy position and cruised clear of the opposition. The daughter of Capetown Noir has plenty of class about her and she should be the one they all have to beat.
Race 7: GOT THE GREENLIG (1)
Jockey: Zackey C – Trainer: Soma J
GOT THE GREENLIGHT stayed on when finishing fourth in the Grade 1 Champions Cup last time. He is making his seasonal debut and has bigger plans for the season, but is suited to this type of distance. He is the class horse in the race and from his mid-field draw, will be the one to beat.
Value Bet
Race 8: SEA WAYS (2)
Jockey: V.Rensburg M – Trainer: Pettigrew S
SEA WAYS’ last start can be ignored as he was reported to be not striding out. The manner in which he won his three previous outings was impressive. The son of Ashaawes should strip a much fitter horse this afternoon and if jumping on terms, he should find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
