Magic Tips Best Bets

TOP BET
Race 1: KILLALA(4)
Jockey: Juan-Paul VAN DER MERVE – Trainer: Gavin SMITH 

KILLALA has posted some useful form and she has a few of today’s rivals beat on the Silva Key run over this c & d on 06/05. She finished a creditable 3rd against winners recently and has strong claims in maiden company today.

Race 2: FLIGHT CAPTAIN(10)
Jockey: Lyle HEWITSON – Trainer: Yvette BREMNER 

The juvenile FLIGHT CAPTAIN was unfancied when he made his debut in a high-quality field of winners over this c & d, two weeks ago. He showed real pace before weakening into a creditable 6th and would have come on appreciably from the experience. The well-related son of Captain Al now faces maiden rivals for the first time and he should make huge improvement. He could take a power of beating despite facing older rivals.

Race 3: ARMORIAL(7)
Jockey: Karl ZECHNER – Trainer: Dorrie SHAM 

ARMORIAL was rewarded for consistency when he recorded an impressive going away victory over a similar field over this c & d in late May. The win earned him a hefty six-pound penalty but the Kahal gelding enjoys this c & d and he should produce another honest performance.

Race 9: CAPTAIN QUICK(4)

Jockey: Richard FOURIE – Trainer: Justin SNAITH 

There should be a cracking pace in this final handicap of the day and that will suit the Snaith inmate CAPTAIN QUICK. The three-year-old gelding clearly needed his comeback run last month and he had two eye-catching wins on this course since the turn of the year. He is well drawn and has definite claims with Richard Fourie in the irons.

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:

Race 7: GRANDISSIMO(4)
Jockey: Stallone NAIDOO – Trainer: Yvette BREMNER 


GRANDISSIMO is improving smartly with experience and he is unbeaten from two c & d efforts. The son of Biarritz has the nasty tendency to jump slowly but he makes up for it with an impressive finishing burst. He did just that when catching TURBO close to home over this c & d, four weeks ago and should continue to progress. The bay gelding should handle this rise in class and he merits healthy respect in this field.
