Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 5: STRATA (2)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: A Greeff
STRATA is a winner of both her starts in the Eastern Cape on the turf. She fought hard for her last victory over 1200m. The daughter of Canford Cliffs takes on her own sex today and she jumps from pole position. If taking to the polytrack, she can bring up the hat-trick.
Race 6: DUBAI HILLS (7)
Jockey: X Ndlovu – Trainer: A Greeff
DUBAI HILLS ran on well when winning his last start over this C&D. He received a five-pound penalty for that victory. The son of Flower Alley is in a good space and can follow up with another victory.
Top Bet For Today
Race 7: AS FATE HAS IT (2)
Jockey: L Mxothwa – Trainer: G Smith
AS FATE HAS IT finished 0.75 lengths behind HEART PEAKS in her last start. She is 1.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. She has won twice and finished second once from six starts over this C&D. The daughter of Vercingetorix is back in Handicap Company and she can go one better.
Race 8: FIRE ALARM (2)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: A Greeff
FIRE ALARM is better than her post maiden effort over 1800m on the turf. The daughter of Fire Away won her maiden over this C&D. Richard Fourie steps back into the saddle and from pole position, she may be the one to side with.
Value Bet For Today
Race 4: HOME REEF (5)
Jockey: L Mxothwa – Trainer: SB Kotzen
HOME REEF ran a creditable race when third over 2000m on the turf last time. He finished 0.75 lengths behind SAN QUINTIN that day. He is 2.5kgs better off at the weights and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. He won his only attempt over this C&D. The son of Erupt jumps from a good draw of four and he should take a power of beating.
