Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 2: SUN UP(8)

Jockey: R Fourie - Trainer: Alan Greeff

The ex-Highveld resident SUN UP proved costly to follow for her former conditioner but she certainly showed enough to warrant huge consideration on her local debut and she has joined a top outfit. The Bremner yard has the main dangers to the top selection with the strong preference for ZALIKA who has continued her good run of form albeit she was 2nd best behind the rampant Cape visitor Vomandla over this c & d in her comeback run six weeks ago.

TOP BET

Race 3: ROCHESTER(2)

Jockey: M Byleveld - Trainer: V Marshall

The Cape visitor ROCHESTER is easily the form choice and the bay colt should take a power of beating if handling the local conditions, including the right hand turn. He is drawn best of all in this small field.

Race 7: COYOTE CREEK(4)

Jockey: L Hewitson - Trainer: Y Bremner

The Bremner yard could have an easy game plan in this contest and their out of sorts galloper TOMBODI should ensure a hot tempo for his more fancied stable elect, COYOTE CREEK. The top selection is in good form and he easily won a similar contest on the polytrack last month.

VALUE BET

Race 6: STREAK OF SILVER(6)

Jockey: T Gould  - Trainer: A Greeff 

The day's headliner is a highly competitive seven furlong Pinnacle Stakes affair that could result in an exciting finish. The consistent STREAK OF SILVER is expectedly out at the weights on official ratings but he beat many of these rivals on the polytrack in a minor feature in the spring.
