Race 8: BLESS MY STARS (1)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: COSMIC STAR (4)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: N Kotzen
LOVING THE VICTORY ran a good race when finishing third over this C&D, four weeks ago. She set the pace that day and stayed on nicely at the finish. She is likely to adopt the same tactics this afternoon and S’manga Khumalo may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her where it matters most.
Race 2: SUPREME DANCE (1)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: B Warren
SUPREME DANCE ran a good race when second in his last start over 1800m on this course. He was unlucky that day as he was carried inwards in the closing stages. He finished third in his only attempt over this C&D. He meets the right field and with Gavin Lerena retaining the ride, he should notch up his fifth career victory.
Race 7: BILLY BOWLEGS (1)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: A Laird
BILLY BOWLEGS was doing his best work at the finish in the Grade 1 WSB SA Classic last time. The manner in which he finishes off his races suggests that he will be at home over the 2450m. The son of The United States has plenty of class and is the horse to beat.
Top Bet For Today
Race 9: SHANGANI (1)
Jockey: K de Melo – Trainer: T Peter
SHANGANI was an easy winner in his season debut over 2400m on this course. He set his own fractions up front, found another kick and drew clear of the opposition. He would have come on from the outing. The son of Soft Falling Rain has no stamina issues and if not affected by the second run after a rest, he should notch up his ninth career victory.

Race 6: TRIP OF FORTUNE (5)
Jockey: A Domeyer – Trainer: C Bass-Robinson
TRIP OF FORTUNE ran a good race when third in the Grade 2 Khaya Stables Diadem Stakes last time. He raced from just off the pace, moved up well but was outrun late. His victory in the Grade 2 WSB Green Point Stakes, three runs ago catches the eye. He makes the trip up to the Highveld and if suited, he has the class to return to winning ways.
