Winning Form Best Bets
Race 1: ZAFAR (1)
Race 2: GIMMEACHOICE (4)
Race 4: SNOW MOON (8)
Race 7: DYCE (1)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: GIMMEACHOICE (4)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: T Peter
GIMMEACHOICE is lightly raced with some good form lines to his credit. He has been carded to run twice since his last outing but has been scratched after travelling to the racecourse. The son of Gimmethegreenlight drops to 1400m and the blinkers should sharpen him up. If keeping on a straight line, he should be the one to beat.
Race 5: SECRET CHORD (4)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: St J D Gray
SECRET CHORD finished 2.4 lengths behind THE NAVY LARK last time. He is 3kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. He has won twice and finished second twice from as many starts over this distance. The combination of St John Gray and Muzi Yeni are in top form. He can notch up his third-career victory.
Race 6: KYLIE’S ANGEL (1)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: T Peter
KYLIE’S ANGEL stayed on when fourth over 1200m on this course last time. The daughter of Vercingetorix takes a drop in class and despite her big mass of 62kgs, she should take a power of beating.
Top Bet For Today
Race 7: DYCE (1)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: M Houdalakis
DYCE quickened up well when returning to winning ways in his last start over 1000m on the Turffontein Inside course. He has won once and finished second twice from four starts on this course. It is encouraging that Piere Strydom retains the ride. He is the class horse in this race and should take a power of beating.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: SAMOA (8)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: B Stidolph
This is a competitive Merit Rated 66 Handicap and caution is advised. The tentative first selection is SAMOA from the Bridget Stidolph stable. She finished 0.25 lengths behind INAFIX last time. She is 2.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. Gavin Lerena retains the ride and a repeat of her last outing will see her involved at the finish.
