Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 5: BLACK THORN (3)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: S Tarry
BLACK THORN was ultra-impressive when winning his last start over this C&D. The manner in which he quickened up and drew away from the opposition was eye-catching. The son of Pomodoro clearly has some class about him and can notch up his fourth career victory.
Race 6: WAR OF ATHENA (2)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: P Matchett
WAR OF ATHENA ran a fair race in the Grade 1 Summer Cup last time. She finished 0.05 lengths behind JOHNNY HERO that day and is 0.5kgs better off at the weights. The daughter of Act Of War is unbeaten from two starts over this C&D. She is having her peak run today and should notch up her eleventh career victory.
Top Bet For Today
Race 7: BUREAU DES LEGENDE (1)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: M de Kock
BUREAU DES LEGENDE was an impressive winner of her last start over 1600m on the Inside course. She set the pace that day and found extra where it matters most to hold all challengers at bay. She won her previous two races well under Muzi Yeni. The daughter of Legislate should have no issues with the drop to 1400m and she can notch up her fourth career victory.
Race 8: FUNKY MUSIC (1)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: A Fortune
FUNKY MUSIC has good consistent form lines to his credit. He set the pace over this distance at the Vaal last time, but was outrun late. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. He takes a drop in class this afternoon and may be rewarded for consistency
Value Bet For Today
Race 9: INTO THE FUTURE (1)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: B Botes/Y Vosloo
INTO THE FUTURE’S last start can be ignored as the jockey reported something to be amiss. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. His two previous outings were encouraging. The 5yo gelding takes a drop in class and if suited to the Turffontein Straight course, he should return to winning ways
