Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: GEORGINA(1)
Jockey: Anthony DELPECH – Trainer: Alyson WRIGHT
GEORGINA has the best credentials and this minimum trip could be ideal for her. In fact, she recorded her career best effort when going down narrowly over this c & d in her penultimate outing, the formline of which was boosted when the 5th placed entrant Show Me Your Rosie beat the top selection seven days ago. Top jockey Delpech retains the ride on the bay filly who is drawn well.
Race 3: CHILLI AFFAIR(5)
Jockey: Athandiwe MGUDLWA – Trainer: Alyson WRIGHT
CHILLI AFFAIR possibly found the trip just beyond him last time but he will relish returning to the mile and can make amends this evening. He produced a career-best effort over this c & d in his penultimate outing and has an obvious affinity for this surface.
Race 4: RUSSET ROSES(10)
Jockey: Sean VEALE – Trainer: Dennis DRIER
RUSSET ROSES relished the rise in ground and she showed smart improvement when producing a strong finish on the grass second time out. She went down by a neck at the line in a competitive field and the daughter of Dynasty should certainly have more progress to come. She tries the polytrack for the first time.
TOP BET
Race 5: FIGARO(1)
Jockey: Anthony DELPECH – Trainer: Dean KANNEMEYER
The Cape visitor FIGARO returns for another winter spell in the province and he has plenty going for him tonight. Of course, the well-bred son of Silvano produced an eye-catching debut over six furlongs on this track behind subsequent multiple winners Wavebreaker and Newyorkstateofmind earlier this campaign. He has posted good Cape form in strong fields in recent outings and should take a power of beating. The bay colt is the yard’s only runner on the night.
VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY
Race 6: VELVET WIND(6)
Jockey: Eric S NGWANE – Trainer: Alistair GORDON
This is a highly competitive topliner but with just a solitary natural pacesetter present, things can become tricky in a likely false run affair. The Alistair Gordon yard holds a decent hand with VELVET WIND and MAGGIE MUGGINS, the slight preference being for the former who has campaigned with success in similar company. The daughter of Windrush brings good recent form into this event and she meets the consistent VOGUE IDEA (2kgs worse off) on highly favourable terms for a half a length defeat. The blinkers have sharpened the four-year-old filly who jumps from a good draw and is effective with handy tactics.
