Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: LOBO’S LEGEND(11)
Jockey: A Marcus – Trainer: J A Soma
Jockey: A Marcus – Trainer: J A Soma
LOBO’S LEGEND is a promising contender who was slated to race on 2 December, and his progress there is worth keeping an eye on. Highly valued by his stable, he showed great determination when narrowly beaten by a well-backed newcomer from the formidable Mike de Kock yard five weeks ago. That form has proven strong, and this Trippi colt is expected to keep improving.
Race 2: SOME SONG(13)
Jockey: D Mansour Trainer: Johan Janse van Vuuren
Jockey: D Mansour Trainer: Johan Janse van Vuuren
The rider line-up from the Johan Janse van Vuuren stable clearly points to SOME SONG as the favoured runner. This Oratorio filly debuted in a graduation plate over five furlongs in October, where she faded after a slow start but remains highly rated by her in-form trainer. She is set for a significant class drop today and is sure to come on leaps and bounds from her debut experience.
TOP BET
Race 3: CARMALITA(1)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: S M Ferreira
Race 3: CARMALITA(1)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: S M Ferreira
CARMALITA has maintained her promise, finishing strongly in a competitive field over a similar distance at Turffontein on the recent Summer Cup Day. She now faces a less stiff competition and has excellent chances to clinch a win. LUNAR DANCER showed notable form on this course and distance in mixed company but was also scheduled to race on 2 December.
Race 9: REFUGE(14)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: S W Kenny
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: S W Kenny
REFUGE has dropped significantly in merit ratings and reunites with his most successful jockey. This Toreador gelding is much better than recent results suggest and could benefit greatly from wearing blinkers. He presents fantastic each-way value in this field. Stablemates VULCAN and TOKYO DRIFT are seasoned runners who may have needed their recent comeback runs but showed promising form previously in stronger company. While conceding considerable weight to Refuge, they remain competitive with their top riders.
VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:
Race 6: TWICE A DANCER(7)
Jockey: L Hewitson – Trainer: Sean TARRY
Jockey: L Hewitson – Trainer: Sean TARRY
TWICE A DANCER is much better than his recent form indicates, and barring any traffic troubles, he should have posted a closer finish in his last run over ten furlongs on the classic track. He faces some capable opposition here but received a generous 5-pound rating drop and is expected to capitalise on this advantage. The Twice Over colt may eventually require gelding but is definitely one to watch.
