Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 2: CURVED LIGHT(1)

Jockey: F Herholdt - Trainer: D McKenzie

The lightly raced CURVED LIGHT has smart c & d credentials and she should be a huge contender in this line-up. She finished one length in front of LOVE TALK last time out and there should again be little to choose between the pair.

TOP BET

Race 4: GREEN FIELD(7)

Jockey: L Hewitson  - Trainer: Y Bremner

GREEN FIELD produced the run of his short career when he stayed on for 3rd behind two Cape visitors Hotel Cipriani (runner-up since) and subsequent winner Saltoro Ridge over a mile on this course six weeks ago. He was returning from an eleven week absence so will strip much fitter and the son of Marchfield clearly has more to offer. The likely stronger gallop over this seven furlongs will suit him and he can pull this off despite a wide draw.

Race 6: BEATABOUTTHEBUSH(2)

Jockey: G Cheyne - Trainer: A Greeff

The tempo should be decent once again and BEATABOUTTHEBUSH's swift turn of foot will stand her in good stead. The four-year old daughter of Gimmethegreenlight sprinted well behind STAR BURST GALAXY at this level recently but the 2kg favourable weight reversal, coupled with the extra furlong sways things to the former's side.

Race 9: LEO ZODIAC(7)

Jockey: R Danielson  - Trainer: D Sham

The lightly raced five-year old LEO ZODIAC is plagued with issues but he could be a 'perfect fit' for this province. He proved that when producing an eye-catching c & d effort at novice level last Friday and of course he escaped without a penalty due to the technicality. The imported chestnut should take some beating if reproducing that performance at this lower-level.

VALUE BET

Race 1: BACKSLASH(2)

Jockey: M Thackeray - Trainer: D Sham

BACKSLASH is versatile and she brings some reasonable polytrack form into this contest. That said, her career best effort came over this c & d against winners in April and the bay filly should be a major threat from her favourable draw.
