Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: MISS LIA (6)
Jockey: P Mxoli – Trainer: P Matchett
MISS LIA produced a promising debut effort over 1200m at the Vaal. She moved up, challenged strongly but found one too good in the form of Basked In Glory. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The daughter of Talk Of The Town would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she is the horse to beat.
Race 3: JOOST DROOCHSLOO (6)
Jockey: K A Brewer – Trainer: A Laird
JOOST DROOCHSLOOT was running on too late when second over 1450m on the Inside course, on debut. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The son of Master Of My Fate would have gained from the experience and should love the rise to the mile. With the natural improvement that is expected, he should take a power of beating.
Race 4: LADY OF TIBET (4)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: A Ndzilana
LADY OF TIBET rallied late when second over this C&D last time. The daughter of Potala Palace is coming along the right way and from her good draw of two, she can go one better under Gavin Lerena.
Top Bet For Today
Race 6: BAVARIAN BEAUTY (1)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: T Peter
BAVARIAN BEAUTY was not disgraced when fifth in the Grade 1 Ridgemont Garden Province Stakes last time. She raced from a handy position and stayed on at the finish. She won her only attempt over this C&D. The daughter of Querari is the class horse in this race and she can notch up her fourth-career victory.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: MIDNIGHT FUSION (3)
Jockey: T Mayhew – Trainer: S Tarry
MIDNIGHT FUSION’S last two starts have been fair. She was reported to be changing strides in running and still stayed on to finish fourth. The daughter of Rafeef has dropped to a competitive rating and she gets the services of 2.5kgs claiming apprentice Trent Mayhew which will assist her cause. She should give the males a run for their money.
