Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 1: TWICE A POET(9)

Jockey: C MAUJEAN  - Trainer: T LAING

TWICE A POET was totally unfancied on his high quality debut over six furlongs on the grass last month and should make natural improvement today. The well-related son of Twice Over was hopelessly slow into stride but he flew late to finish a close 3rd and was in turn just over four lengths ahead of the next placed entrant GUADALUPO

Race 4: FORT VIVA(7)

Jockey: T GOULD - Trainer: A Greef

FORT VIVA has continued his decent form in the province and he posted a creditable last c & d effort despite racing wide at a slightly lesser level. He shoulders a handy galloping mass and could stake a serious claim from a good draw now

Race 6: LORD MARSHAL(2)

Jockey: L MXOTHWA   - Trainer: G PADDOCK

LORD MARSHAL prefers this surface nowadays but quite surprisingly returned to form with a smart last performance over a mile on the grass a fortnight ago. Interestingly, he had Leadman a short head behind him that day so it could pay to monitor the progress of the latter in the prior event. This son of Horse Chestnut clearly escaped without a penalty and can go one better from the best draw today

TOP BET

Race 7: ALDO(1)

Jockey: G Cheyne - Trainer: A Greef

ALDO's record speaks for itself and the smart son of Redoute's Promise has huge claims of completing a quick hat-trick today. He was expectedly given the maximum eight pound penalty for his facile triumph of Strawberry Girl (creditable subsequent feature effort) over this track & trip on the final day of last season but the Greeff inmate clearly appears ahead of the handicappers and should prove that today.

VALUE BET

Race 8: DATA LINK(6)

Jockey: L MXOTHWA   - Trainer:  S KOTZEN

This is a tricky final contest where DATA LINK could make serious improvement on her last run where she only got going late and was easily beaten by MAKING MIRACLES whom she meets on just 1kg better terms for a 4.75 lengths thrashing. That said, the top selection will undoubtedly prefer this extra furlong and can get much closer to her conqueror this time around
