Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 3: BEFORE NOON(5)
Jockey: R Danielson – Trainer: S Tarry

BEFORE NOON shines brighter without blinkers, ready to bounce back with great form. Previously showing promise, this Tarry-trained challenger has a great draw and solid claims to watch.

TOP BET
Race 6: BONDIBLU(2)
Jockey: Weicho Marwing – Trainer: S Ferreira

In an exciting stayers’ mile and a half Middle Stakes, several talented fillies go head-to-head. BONDIBLU is attractively weighted, stepping down in class after strong showings in tougher events. Previously, she dominated the consistent DALLEY over a similar distance, and despite a 2kg weight shift, she remains a real contender. With top jockey Weichong Marwing aboard, she’s set for a compelling run.

BONDIBLU(2)

Race 7: AMSTERDAM(8)
Jockey: P Strydom – Trainer: M Azzie

This race’s highlight is a tough field showcasing talented runners over ten furlongs. The experienced gelding AMSTERDAM boasts a perfect record over this course & distance, winning both attempts. Known to bring his best when ridden by ‘Striker’, trainer Mike Azzie’s charge only faltered late on in his last longer distance feature, making this his ideal race. Expect a strong performance from this duo on the day.

AMSTERDAM(8)

Race 8: SHEET WEAVER(5)
Jockey: R Simons – Trainer: A Laird

SHEET WEAVER continues to impress, showcasing his staying power with a recent strong finish over a long distance in testing conditions. He adapts well to shorter trips as stats confirm. Well handicapped, he’s the one to beat for this in-form team. The top-weight contender and emerging three-year-old CASH TIME also looks promising, fresh off a commanding win over this track. Despite carrying a hefty penalty, his progress and Strydom’s confidence could see him pose a big threat, especially starting from the optimum draw.

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:
Race 4: REGAL GIRL(14)
Jockey: S Brown – Trainer: L Erasmus

The Glamorous Scandal form worked well recently at this track, with the runner-up Pinfanta surpassing the third place Empress Rock. REGAL GIRL showed marked improvement holding on for 4th in that seven furlong race and is set to relish the extra distance. Her conqueror Glamorous Scandal further boosted this form by almost winning her handicap debut, highlighting the strength of this line.
