Race 3: MISTER NIBBLES (3)
Race 6: DOUBLE GRAND SLAM (5)
Race 7: SANDRINGHAM SUMMIT (2)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: KOLA TONIC (9)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: G van Zyl
KOLA TONIC showed good improvement when third in his last start with the tongue-tie fitted. He raced from just off the pace and stayed on at the finish. The son of What A Winter would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. With a bit of luck from the widest draw, he should be the one to beat.
Race 2: PILOT FLAME (1)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: H Crawford/M Rix
PILOT FLAME is lightly raced with good form lines to her credit. She should have finished closer to the winner last time as she hung outwards from the 300m mark. The daughter of Master Of My Fate is a progressive type and if suited to the polytrack, she can go one better.
Top Bet For Today
Race 6: DOUBLE GRAND SLAM (5)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: J Snaith
DOUBLE GRAND SLAM has been ultra-impressive in her last two victories. She took the lead at the 250m mark in the Grade 3 Umzimkhulu Stakes last time, quickened up well and drew clear of the opposition. The daughter of Vercingetorix is the form horse in this contest and she should notch up the hat-trick.
Race 7: SANDRINGHAM SUMMIT (2)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: D Nieuwenhuizen
SANDRINGHAM SUMMIT produced a strong finish when winning the Grade 2 Hawaii Stakes last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. The son of Gimmethegreenlight is unbeaten from two starts on this course. He jumps from a good draw of two and should be the one to beat.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: PREEMPTIVE STRIKE (5)
Jockey: S Veale – Trainer: S Ferrie
PREEMPTIVE STRIKE was running on when second over 1400m on this course. He has won three times, finished second once and third twice from ten starts over this C&D. The Stuart Ferrie stable are in form and the 6yo gelding can return to winning ways.
