Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: MOUNTAIN HIGH (5)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: S Tarry
MOUNTAIN HIGH took on a competitive field in the Grade 2 Wilgerbosdrift SA Fillies Nursery last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since. Her debut effort when third over 1200m at the Vaal, catches the eye. The daughter of Rafeef will love the rise to 1450m and from her good draw of three, she should be the one to beat.
Race 4: ERIMITAGE (1)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: M/A Azzie
ERIMITAGE showed good improvement in his last start over 1400m at the Vaal. He was running on nicely at the finish that day. The son of Potala Palace is having his peak run today and may be the one to side with.
Race 5: SNEAK PREVIEW (10)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: M Houdalakis
SNEAK PREVIEW made the expected natural improvement when second in her last start over 1400m at the Vaal. She took the lead at the 200m mark but was caught late by Honorable Member. The daughter of Fire Away is a progressive type and she can go one better.
Top Bet For Today
Race 6: WILLIAM IRON ARM (3)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: T Peter
WILLIAM IRON ARM is lightly raced with good form lines to his credit. He took the lead at the 400m mark in the Grade 1 TAB SA Classic last time, but was outrun late. The son of William Longsword is the best weighted runner in this contest. Calvin Habib retains the ride and he should take a power of beating.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: CIRCUS LIGHTS (7)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: G Maroun
CIRCUS LIGHTS took on stronger company in his last start over this C&D. He finished second in his previous two runs over this C&D. He takes a drop in class and with Piere Strydom in the saddle, he can notch up his third-career victory.
