Turffontein racecourse hosts a good card today, with the first race set to go off at 11:20am (UK Time). To help you try and find a few winners, here are Magic Tips' South African Horse Racing selections for today.

Turffontein Tips - Thursday 9th July

Race 1 - MAGIC DECLARATION (11)

MAGIC DECLARATION took time to find his feet on debut over 1200m on this course, but the manner in which he finished off his race caught the eye. The son of Declarationofpeace would have gained from the experience and should love the rise to 1450m. With the natural improvement that is expected, he may be the one to beat.

Race 3 - CORRUPT (2)

CORRUPT won a game race over 2400m on the Standside course last time. He raced from a handy position and kept finding to hold all challengers at bay. He is in a good space and can follow up with another victory.

Race 4 - KISSING MACHINE (6)

KISSING MACHINE was not beaten far in the Grade 3 Lucky Fish Winter Fillies Stakes last time. She has won three times and finished second once from five starts on this course. The daughter of Master Of My Fate is back on the Highveld and with her handy galloping mass of 54kgs, she can upset.

Race 6 - THAT’S MY BABY (1)

THAT’S MY BABY has consistent form to her credit. She was not disgraced when fourth in the Grade 2 HKJC World Pool Tibouchina Stakes last time. The daughter of Master Of My Fate is back on the Highveld and she will be mowing down the frontrunners.

Race 8 - QUIET WINTER (2)

QUIET WINTER ran on strongly when third over 1160m on the Standside course last time. The daughter of What A Winter takes a drop in class and returns to the 1000m. Gavin Lerena retains the ride and she can notch up her second-career victory.

Verdict

Magic Declaration (Race 1) is Magic Tips' best bet of the day at Turffontein on Thursday.
