Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 3: TWICE A DANCER(6)
Jockey: Smanga KHUMALO – Trainer: Joey RAMSDEN
TWICE A DANCER appears a smart type in the making and he relished the step-up to the mile to win his maiden going away on the Highveld five weeks ago. The Twice Over colt had some traffic issues that day but his recovery was super-impressive and gave every indication that he will continue to improve with experience. The Tarry inmate rises sharply in class but should enjoy this extra ground and could prove equal to the task at hand.
Race 4: SPRING BREEZE(10)
Jockey: Piere STRYDOM – Trainer: Michael AZZIE
This slight drop in distance should be ideal for the Azzie inmate SPRING BREEZE who tired late over seven furlongs on ‘July Day’ four weeks ago. The daughter of Querari was returning from a 13 week rest so may have also just needed the outing and she will be fitter now. She should be highly competitive from her midfield berth.
Race 5: MERYL(11)
Jockey: Anthony DELPECH – Trainer: Dean KANNEMEYER
A top class field of juvenile fillies line-up for this Grade 1 contest where a couple of unbeaten records are on the line. That isn’t the case for the top selection MERYL though, but the Kannemeyer inmate is searching for a hat-trick of victories after her two impressive back-to-back wins on either surface at this venue. She was particularly eye-catching when she produced a powerful late burst to beat some useful rivals in a minor feature over seven furlongs last time out & would have strengthened during the short break. The mile will suit her perfectly and she races from off the speed so her poor draw isn’t a major concern.
Race 6: MONKS HOOD(9)
Jockey: Anthony DELPECH – Trainer: Alistair GORDON
MONKS HOOD is potentially a top sort in the making and though he lost his unbeaten record recently, he produced an eye-catching performance over seven furlongs on this course despite the circumstances. His wily old conditioner’s move to skip the ‘July Day’ feature could prove a masterstroke as the Querari colt would have strengthened and should love every bit of this step-up to the mile. He has a strong finish and can pull this off despite his poor barrier position.

Race 9: WARFARER(5)
Jockey: Alec FORBES – Trainer: Lezeanne FORBES
There should be a hot gallop in this highly competitive handicap on the polytrack where the three-year olds could have a decent say. The local WARFARER has had an excellent first season particularly on this track and he is weighted to finish much closer to recent conquerors SUN ON AFRICA and NEW FORT. He will enjoy the likely solid speed and represents decent each/way value
