Race 5: WINTER WAVES (6)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 3: BLUE HORIZON (1)
Jockey: W Marwing – Trainer: W Marwing
BLUE HORIZON showed massive improvement in her last start over 1600m on this course. The manner in which she finished off her race that day suggests that she will love the rise to 1900m. The blinkers seem to have done the trick and she may be the one to side with.
Race 5: RODRIGUEZ (7)
Jockey: C Maujean – Trainer: L Goosen
RODRIGUEZ stayed on when fourth over 1700m on this course last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. Two of his five career victories have come over this distance. If not too far out of his ground turning for home, he can return to winning ways.
Top Bet For Today
Race 7: BOWIE (1)
Jockey: D Dillon – Trainer: P Muscutt
TJOKLIT has finished third in his last three starts over 1400m on the turf. It must be noted that the horse that finished second in his last start has come out and won since. The son of Querari has a wide draw to overcome, but he is likely to use his early gate speed to get across without using up too much energy.
Race 8: PHAKA IMALI (11)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: G Rich
PHAKA IMALI raced from a handy position over 1200m on the turf last time and stayed on to finish fourth. He has won twice, finished second twice and third once from ten starts over this C&D. He does have a wide draw to overcome, but Richard Fourie knows him well and he should give him all the necessary assistance from the saddle.
Value Bet For Today
Race 4: CATCH THE TUNE (8)
Jockey: S Moodley – Trainer: F Robinson
CATCH THE TUNE ran on from last when fourth in his last start over 2000m on the turf. He has won once, finished second four times and third three times from fourteen starts on this course. He is having his peak run today and will be cherry-ripe. If not too far out of his ground turning for home, he can return to winning ways.
