Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 2: CRIMSON ROYALE(2)
Jockey: C ZACKEY – Trainer: S TARRY

There could be a lack of pace in this small field which is a concern for the promising first selection CRIMSON ROYALE. The Tarry inmate blossomed with each showing last term and she would have strengthened during the ten week absence. Of course she hit her top stride late when a close 3rd behind two useful sorts over this track & trip last time and the runner-up Running Brave managed a creditable 4th in a Grade 2 next time out.

Race 7: FULL OF ATTITUDE(3)

Jockey: K DE MELO – Trainer: J SOMA

FULL OF ATTITUDE represents an in-form yard and the manner in which he ran on again for a close 5th in his last seven furlong contest, indicates that he will enjoy the mile on this galloping circuit today. The four-year old is drawn best of all and his effective handy tactics will stand him in good stead in a likely false run affair.

Race 8: NOCEUR(5)
Jockey: P STRYDOM – Trainer: A LAIRD

Just seven entrants contest this competitive mile handicap for fillies and mares but a decent tempo is expected. The Alec Laird yard is well-represented and their natural dictator PALE LILAC could do her stable companion NOCEUR an almighty favour by pushing the other frontrunner JAMRA hard in the early stages.

TOP BET

Race 9: WILD CURVE(1)

Jockey: D LERENA – Trainer: Fabian HABIB

The smart WILD CURVE had a short rest after his impressive last triumph over stronger opposition and he has more to offer despite the resultant six pound penalty. The lightly raced son of Curved Ball is the stable’s only runner on the day and he will again benefit from a 2.5kgs apprentice allowance.

VALUE BET

Race 4: MILL CREEK(2)
Jockey: M YENI – Trainer: R SAGE

MILL CREEK flopped miserably when she tried ten furlongs recently but the daughter of Pathfork will be an entirely different proposition over today’s trip. The lightly raced chestnut clearly prefers racing without blinkers and she should bounce back to best for this in-form combination.
