Race 4: LETS PLAY POKER (1)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: OMBUDSMAN (7)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: S Tarry
OMBUDSMAN is better than his last start over 1400m at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. He was squeezed when leaving the start and was reported to be coughing post-race. His debut effort when fifth over 1100m at Turffontein was encouraging. The son of Flower Alley has scope and he may be the one to side with in this field.
Race 4: LETS PLAY POKER (1)
Jockey: K Matsunyane – Trainer: M G/A A Azzie
LETS PLAY POKER was running on when third over 1000m at Turffontein last time. The manner in which he finished off his race that day suggests that he will love the rise to 1400m. He will strip a much fitter horse and should find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 6: CITY LIGHTS (1)
Jockey: D Schwarz – Trainer: F Bronkhorst
CITY LIGHTS is still a maiden after 18 starts but has consistent form lines to her credit. She challenged strongly over 1800m last time, but found one too good in the form of Easy On Me. The daughter of Pomodoro should have no issues with the rise to 2000m and she may be rewarded for consistency.
Top Bet For Today
Race 7: RULERSHIP (1)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: T Peter
Trainer Tony Peter holds a strong hand in this contest and he can saddle the first two past the post. RULERSHIP showed good speed over this distance at Turffontein last time, but was outrun late. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. He won his only attempt over this C&D. The son of William Longsword is the class horse in this contest and he can notch up his seventh-career victory.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: TRIDENT KING (2)
Jockey: P Mxoli – Trainer: A Ndzilana
TRIDENT KING stayed on when fourth over this distance on the Turffontein Inside course. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The son of Pathfork takes a drop in class and on best form shown, he should be involved at the finish. He is carded to race on 18 July 2024 and his progress in that race will need to be monitored.
