Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: TIME TOGETHER (11)
Jockey: W Marwing – Trainer: W Marwing
TIME TOGETHER produced a promising debut effort over 1160m, nine weeks ago. He showed good speed, understandably raced green and was outrun late. It must be noted that Melech has come out and won again since. The son of Time Thief would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, he should be the one to beat.

Race 5: BATTLEGROUND (2)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: M Houdalakis
BATTLEGROUND has finished second in his last three starts. He raced from a handy position over this distance on the Vaal Classic course, but found one too good in the form of American Star. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The son of Futura meets the right field this afternoon and should take a power of beating.
Race 7: MORE FOR ME (4)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: B Botes/Y Vosloo
MORE FOR ME showed massive improvement when second in her last start over 1800m on the Vaal Classic course. She raced from a handy position, but found one too good in the form of Pomozelous. The daughter of Global View is a progressive type and if seeing out the 2600m, she is capable of winning a race of this nature.
Race 8: MIGHTY GODDESS (3)
Jockey: R Munger – Trainer: B Ruiters
MIGHTY GODDESS should have finished closer to the winner last time as she hung inwards from the 300m mark. She has finished second in her only attempt over this distance. If keeping on a straight line, she should notch up her first career victory.

Race 3: FREE MOVEMENT (6)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: R Sage
FREE MOVEMENT ran a fair race in his last start over 1400m on the Standside course. He was reported to be distressed that day. 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 will enjoy the drop to 1200m and with Muzi Yeni in the saddle, he is capable of winning a race of this nature.
