Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: WYZEACT (16)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: C Spies
WYZEACT should have won on debut over 1400m on this course as he hung in the final 300m. The son of Act Of War should have no issues with the drop to 1200m. He would have gained from the experience and with S’manga Khumalo retaining the ride, he should find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 5: PURPLE PITCHER (11)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: R Klaasen
PURPLE PITCHER ran a fair race in the Non-Black Type Highveld Winter Juvenile Stakes last time. It must be noted that Main Defender has come out and won again since. The son of New Predator has changed stables since that outing. He returns to Maiden Company and with Gavin Lerena in the saddle, he can shed his maiden tag.
Top Bet For Today
Race 8: IVY LEAGUE (2)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: B Botes
IVY LEAGUE was super-impressive when winning her last start over 1400m on this course. She had to be switched for running room at the 300m mark that day and the manner in which she finished off her race was eye-catching. The daughter of What A Winter looks to have class about her and against similar company, she should take a power of beating.
Race 7: STRATOSPHERIC (2)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: T Peter
STRATOSPHERIC was an easy winner of his last start over 1450m on the Turffontein Inside course. The manner in which he quickened up and drew clear of the opposition was eye-catching. He has won once, finished second once and third once from four starts over this distance. The son of What A Winter is in a good space and can follow up.
Value Bet For Today
Race 6: MINI COOP (7)
Jockey: D De Gouveia – Trainer: C Dawson
MINI COOP finished 5 lengths behind CAPTAIN DIZZY last time. He is 5.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. He returns from an 11-week break which may have done him the world of good. The son of Coup De Grace races well fresh and he may be the one to beat.
