Race 4: FEATHER BOA (2)
Race 6: BIG BURN (1)
Race 7: WILLIAM ROBERTSON (8)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: RUN FOR COVER (8)
Jockey: R Munger – Trainer: A Fortune
RUN FOR COVER produced a promising debut effort over 1160m on the Standside course. He understandably raced green, but the manner in which he finished off his race was encouraging. He returns from a 12- week break, during which time he would have strengthened up. With the natural improvement that is expected, he should take a power of beating.
Race 2: GREGARIOUS GAL (6)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: M Azzie
GREGARIOUS GAL showed good speed over 1160m on the Standside course last time, but found one too good in the form of Rockets Red Glare. The daughter of Areion tries the mile for the first time. If not too green around the turn, she should find herself in the winner’s enclosure.
Top Bet For Today
Race 3: MAGICAL FLIGHT (2)
Jockey: C Habib – Trainer: S Tarry
MAGICAL FLIGHT has fair recent form lines to her credit. She has won twice, finished second twice and third once from ten starts over this distance. The daughter of Willow Magic takes a drop in class and may be hard to peg back.
Race 4: FEATHER BOA (2)
Jockey: R Simons – Trainer: S Pettigrew
FEATHER BOA moved up well in her last start over 1200m on this course last time, but found one too good in the form of Orarari Gold. She won a good race in her penultimate run over this distance. The daughter of Flower Alley is the class horse in the race and should notch up her third career victory.
Value Bet For Today
Race 9: LESHAWES (5)
LESHAWES stayed on when fifth over 1700m at the Vaal last time. He won a good race in his penultimate run over 1600m on the Stand side course. The son of Ashaawes has won once and finished second four times from as many starts over this distance. He is likely to be switched off near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners
