Best bets and value tips for racing from Kenilworth on Wednesday 20th November with selections provided by Winning Form as well as their back page tipster, Magic Tips.
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: CONGO COMPAQ (4)
Jockey: A Domeyer - Trainer: W Nel
CONGO COMPAQ has just had the three runs, but he was only reeled in late in his latest start over this c&d and from a good draw, he looks to be the one to side with here. His first two runs were at the country course and he has improved with each outing.
Race 4: MISSISIPPI BURNING (8)
Jockey: C Zackey - Trainer: A Marcus
MISSISIPPI BURNING has been ultra-consistent and drew away impressively last time out to put six and a half lengths between herself and the second horse over five furlongs. All five of her starts to date have been over the minimum distance and she steps up to six furlongs for today's contest. If coping with the extra ground, she could be the one that they all have to beat.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 6: SOVEREIGN SPIRIT (2)
Jockey: B Fayd'Herbe - Trainer: C Bass-Robinson
SOVEREIGN SPIRIT returns from a 22-week break. He goes for his hat-trick here after notching up two wins at Hollywoodbets Scottsville during the KZN Winter Season. He has his first run back in CT, but if not in need of the run, he looks a big runner here. Top heavyweight jockey Bernard Fayd'Herbe retains the ride which is encouraging.
Race 7: KELPIE (2)
Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: B Crawford
KELPIE is unbeaten in two starts over this c&d and goes for a rare quartet of wins here. She likes to set the pace in her races and has found more to fend off all challengers in the closing stages. She gets Anton Marcus in the irons who is a master of judging pace and for keeping horses going down to the wire.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 6: BRANDENBURG (4)
Jockey: L Mxothwa - Trainer: P Kruger
BRANDENBURG and SIX DEGREES renew their rivalry here with the slight preference going to the former. He did finish 2L in front of the latter in their last clash over seven furlongs and although he is 0.5kgs worse off at today's weights, he's taken to confirm that result. The latter did finish in front of the former in their penultimate outing, but the former has posted two wins over this distance, whereas the latter has yet to try the trip.
