Scottsville racecourse hosts a decent card today, with the first race going off at 10:40am (UK Time). To help you try and find a few winners, here are Magic Tips' South African Horse Racing selections.

Scottsville Tips - Wednesday 8th July

Race 2 - CHRISTMAS ROSE (3)

ROYAL KINGDOM won a good race over 1300m on the polytrack last time. He showed a good turn of foot and won going away. The tongue-tie has done the trick on the son of William Longsword. He should be ideally suited to the extra 100m on offer and can follow up with another victory.

Race 4 - REDOUBT EXPRESS (5)

REDOUBT EXPRESS produced a promising debut effort when third over this distance on the polytrack. He took time to find his feet but the manner in which he finished off his race was encouraging. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The son of Rafeef would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, he may find himself in the winner’s enclosure.

Race 6 - SAXON DYNASTY (6)

SAXON DYNASTY is much better than his last start in the Listed Lonsdale Stirrup Cup. He won his penultimate outing over 1900m at Hollywoodbets Greyville. The son of Querari gets the services of 4kgs claiming Apprentice Anaas Mosaheb which will assist his cause. If switching off early, he can notch up his fourth-career victory.

Race 7 - TUNGUSKA (4)

TUNGUSKA won a good race over 1950m at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth last time. He moved up well and found extra where it matters most. He received a three-pound penalty for that victory. The son of Var is in a good space and can follow up.

Race 8 - DANCING ON A CLOUD (10)

DANCING ON A CLOUD was an impressive winner in his comeback run over this distance on the polytrack. He received a three-pound penalty for that victory. The son of Lancaster Bomber would have come on from the outing. He is likely to be settled near the rear of the field once again and will be mowing down the frontrunners.

Verdict

Redoubt Express (Race 4) is Magic Tips' best bet of the day at Scottsville on Wednesday.
