Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 3: BATTLEOFBARBERTO (3)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: M G/A A Azzie
BATTLEOFBARBERTON was given a peach of a ride when winning his last start over this distance on the Vaal Classic course. He would have come on from the run and should strip fitter. Piere Strydom retains the ride and the pair can follow up with another victory.
Top Bet For Today
Race 4: RAISEAHALLELUJAH (2)
Jockey: S Moodley – Trainer: C Dawson
RAISEAHALLELUJAH won a game race in his last start over this C&D. He raced from a handy position and kept finding all the way to the line. He meets a similar line-up this afternoon and should notch up his ninth-career victory.
Race 5: MIA MOO (3)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: S Tarry
MIA MOO found one too good in the form of Double Grand Slam in the Grade 3 Umzimkhulu Stakes last time. She returns from a 27-week break which would have done her the world of good. The daughter of Vercingetorix will enjoy the drop to 1200m and if keeping on a straight line, she should be too good for this field.
Race 9: KARANGETANG (5)
Jockey: R A Venniker – Trainer: J A Janse v?Vuuren
KARANGETANG finished 2 lengths behind SMITH AND WESSON last time. He is 3.5kgs better off at the weights today which is enough for the tables to be turned. He is likely to race on the speed and may be hard to peg back.
Value Bet For Today
Race 6: WHITE PEARL (6)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: M De Kock
WHITE PEARL is much better than her last start in the Grade 1 SA Fillies Sprint. She returns from an 18-week break and is having her first run for the season. The daughter of Danon Platina has won once and finished second twice from as many starts over this C&D. On best form shown, it would not be a shock to see her in the winner’s enclosure.
