Winning Form Best Bets
Race 1: CHARGE D' AFFAIRES(1)
Race 2: FITZWILLIAM(5)
Race 3: IMPERIAL ROYAL(9)
Race 10: UNBELIEVABLE LAD(13)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: PALACE ROSE(8)
Jockey: M Byleveld Trainer: V Marshall
The speedy PALACE ROSE had an excusable last effort on the grass and in any case, she does seem to prefer racing on this surface. Of course she was nabbed late over an extra furlong on this track in her penultimate outing and should enjoy this drop in distance. She could give the likely short-priced favourite CHARGE D' AFFAIRES plenty of cheek.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 2: FITZWILLIAM(5)
Jockey: K De Melo - Trainer: D Kannemeyer
The well-bred FITZWILLIAM was quietly fancied on his promising debut 2nd on the grass at Scottsville over this trip three weeks ago and he should make natural improvement. His trainer's horses usually perform well on this surface.
Race 4: TWO STROKE(1)
Jockey: K De Melo - Trainer: M Dixon
TWO STROKE is improving quickly and he finished his recent c & d effort strongly despite racing wide. The lightly raced Mogok colt should continue to progress on his peak showing and he merits healthy respect despite another wide barrier.
Race 7: VIVA LE BLEU(6)
Jockey: A Domeyer - Trainer: C Bass-Robinson
The grey filly VIVA LE BLEU is a track specialist who had legitimate excuses for her poor last showing on the grass and she should bounce straight back. The best drawn daughter of Warm White Night is her stable's solitary entrant on the card.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 8: ROY'S ZARA(2)
Jockey: C Zackey - Trainer: D Howells
The imported ROY'S ZARA suffered a few setbacks after showing earlier promise but she had a creditable comeback run despite racing wide over a similar trip on this course two weeks ago and she will strip fitter now. Trainer Howells' charge is weighted to reduce the 3.45 lengths deficit with BURNBURRY on that performance and she can bounce back to form.
