Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: SEATTLE LILY(3)
Jockey: L Hewitson – Trainer: Y Bremner
Jockey: L Hewitson – Trainer: Y Bremner
The fillies hold a strong hand in this opening contest and riding engagements from the Bremner yard indicate that SEATTLE LILY is the preference. This bay daughter of Sail From Seattle has a smart c & d record and she just found one too good for her last month. She had the lightly raced improver SEATTLE SPLENDOUR just over one length further adrift and there should be little to choose between the pair.
TOP BET
Race 2: GOLDEN SHAMROCK(2)
Jockey: J V.D.Merwe– Trainer: G Smith
TOP BET
Race 2: GOLDEN SHAMROCK(2)
Jockey: J V.D.Merwe– Trainer: G Smith
GOLDEN SHAMROCK is at his best when dictating terms and he finished runner-up with those tactics in each of his last two showings over further on this course. He is 1kg out at the weights on official ratings but will be suited by this drop in distance and can certainly go one better.
Race 5: SPRING STEEL(2)
Jockey: T Gould – Trainer: A Greeff
SPRING STEEL had an exciting local debut on the grass in a strong field despite needed a ‘hard ride’. The veteran Kahal gelding finished strongly for a close 3rd in that Pinnacle Stakes and of course escaped without a penalty. He will strip fitter today and drops in class on his polytrack debut.
Race 8: BAH(5)
Jockey: J V.D.Merwe- Trainer: G Smith
Jockey: J V.D.Merwe- Trainer: G Smith
The grey gelding BAH was given a smart ride as he raced a little closer than usual before producing his customary late burst. He got the upper hand late to win going away over this c & d and escaped with just the minimum two pound penalty. VARISTAR has produced his best recent performances on this surface and he can bounce back today.
VALUE BET
Race 6: MR JAY(3)
Jockey: L Mxothwa – Trainer: D McKenzie
Jockey: L Mxothwa – Trainer: D McKenzie
MR JAY had an eye-catching last effort on this course over shorter despite racing wide and he will prefer this step-up in distance. He also raced wide when finishing strongly for a close 2nd behind RULE THE WORLD (1kg worse off) over this c & d in his penultimate start and has a good barrier position today.
