Winning Form Best Bets
Race 1: TSITSIKAMMA PEARL (3)
Race 2: FREE MOVEMENT (1)
Race 4: TRUMP MY QUEEN (9)
Race 6: SHOEMAKER (1)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: FREE MOVEMENT (1)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: R Sage
FREE MOVEMENT raced from a handy position over the mile on the Standside course last time, but was caught late by Mo The Man. He finished third in his only attempt over this C&D. In this type of field and from his good draw of two, he can go one better.
Race 3: FOSTINOVO (8)
Jockey: K de Melo – Trainer: J A Janse van Vuuren
FOSTINOVO should have won his last start over this C&D as his pilot dropped his crop at the 100m mark. He is having his peak run today and will be cherry-ripe. Keagan de Melo retains the ride from pole position and he will be looking to make amends.
Top Bet For Today
Race 6: SHOEMAKER (1)
Jockey: K de Melo – Trainer: M de Kock
SHOEMAKER is the best bet on the programme. He showed good signs of a form return in his last start over 1160m on the Standside course. He was slow into stride, but the manner in which he finished off his race that day was encouraging. The son of Gimmethegreenlight will love the return to the mile. He is the best weighted runner in this contest and should take a power of beating.
Race 8: JP TWO THOUSAND (6)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: F Habib
JP TWO THOUSAND showed good signs of a form return in his last start over this distance on the Vaal Classic course. He raced from a handy position, but was outrun late. The son of Elusive Fort has dropped to a competitive rating and with S’manga Khumalo retaining the ride, he can return to winning ways.
Value Bet For Today
Race 4: TRUMP MY QUEEN (9)
Jockey: D Dillon – Trainer: W Whitehead
TRUMP MY QUEEN finished 2.75 lengths behind SPECIAL CHARM last time. She is 5.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. The daughter of Captain Of All finished 1.5 lengths behind IPSO FACTO in her penultimate run. She is 11.5kgs better off at the weights and should turn the form around. She is likely to be switched off near the rear of the field from the widest draw and will be mowing down the frontrunners.
