Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 1: SUGAR GUM (8)

Jockey: M van Rensburg - Trainer: G Smith 

Only three of the eight horses carded to run here have had an outing and is always the case in these events, a close eye should be kept on the betting market to get an indication of what the various stables feel about the chances of their runners. Any betting support for these runners should be respected. Of the raced entrants, the best appears to be SUGAR GUM who showed speed on debut over 800M on this surface before just being collared in the shadow of the post. She would have learnt from the experience and with natural improvement to be expected, she should be right up there when they hit the line. 

TOP BET

RACE 5: WORLD RADAR (3)

Jockey: G CHeyne - Trainer: A Greeff

WORLD RADAR is a filly taking on the boys, but she was considered good enough to be taken down to CT to contest a feature race over seven furlongs last time out. She started favourite that day, but was reported to be not striding out when finishing some way off the winner and that run is best ignored. If over her travels and back to her best, she looks to be the one to side with here.

Race 6: GIACOMO (4)

Jockey: G Cheyne - Trainer: A Greeff

GIACOMO has consistent form to his name and recorded his only win to date over this distance. He ran on well in his last start over this c&d and from his handy draw, he should be right up there in the firing line today. 

Race 7: MADAME SPEAKER (3)

Jockey: G Cheyne - Trainer: A Greeff

MADAME SPEAKER attempts her hat-trick here and the way she has gone about gaining her last two wins, this is very much on the cards. She gets stable jockey Greg Cheyne in the saddle and they start from a handy draw. 

VALUE BET

RACE 8: NO MORE WORDS (2)

Jockey: C Maujean - Trainer: T Laing  

NO MORE WORDS has pulled pole position and was staying on at the finish in her last outing over 1300M. That was her first start for her new stable since relocating from the Highveld. She reverts back to the turf today and should be respected here.
