Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 3: CHIEFTAIN (2)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: J A Janse v/Vuuren
CHIEFTAIN hails from the visiting Johan Janse van Vuuren stable. He produced a promising debut effort over 800m at Turffontein. He was green in running, but the manner in which he stayed on at the finish was encouraging. The son of Vercingetorix would have gained from the experience and should love the rise to 1000m. If all went well with his travels, he should be the one to beat.
Race 5: LIGHTNING GLOW (6)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: J Snaith
LIGHTNING GLOW followed up his maiden win with an equally impressive victory over 1800m at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth. He raced from a handy position last time and found extra where it matters most. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. If settled into KZN, he should notch up the hat-trick.
Top Bet For Today
Race 6: GET IMPRESSED (1)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: J Snaith
GET IMPRESSED has very good consistent form lines to his credit. He should have finished closer to the winner last time as he hung outwards in the closing stages. His penultimate run when fifth in the Grade 3 Schweppes Politician Stakes was encouraging. If suited to the right-hand turn, he should be too good for this field.
Race 7: GIAMBATTISTA (7)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: N Kotzen
GIAMBATTISTA is a winner of his last three starts, the latest of which was over this C&D. He raced from a handy position last time and fought hard to keep all challengers at bay. Richard Fourie retains the ride and the combination can win again.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: SWISS PARADISE (8)
Jockey: M Thackeray – Trainer: A Rivalland
SWISS PARADISE finished 0.3 lengths behind CHELSEA FLOWER last time. She is 1kg better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. The blinkers seem to have done the trick on the daughter of What A Winter. She shows good speed in her races and may be hard to peg back.
