Turffontein racecourse stages a strong card on Thursday, with Stilo Novo highlighted as the best bet following a promising debut at TAB Vaal where he finished second to Berry Lancer, a subsequent winner. Market support and expected natural improvement strengthen his claims. Other selections include The Bachelorette in Race 1, Scented Alley in Race 2, Gothetiger in Race 6, and Elusive Red in Race 7, each backed by recent form, good draws, or weight advantages. Stilo Novo stands out as the top pick for the meeting.

Turffontein racecourse hosts a good card today, with the first race set to go off at 10:25am (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 5th November


Race 1 - THE BACHELORETTE (6)


THE BACHELORETTE has finished fourth in her last two starts. She was reported to be not striding out over 1200m last time. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The daughter of William Longsword will enjoy the rise to 1450m and she may be the one to side with.

Race 2 - SCENTED ALLEY (2) 


SCENTED ALLEY received a bump leaving the start over this C&D last time, but finished off her race strongly. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The daughter of Flower Alley is a progressive type and from her good draw of two, she can shed her maiden tag. 

Race 3 - STILO NOVO (8) 


STILO NOVO produced a promising debut effort over 1200m at TAB Vaal. He raced from a prominent position, but found one too good in the form of Berry Lancer who has come out and won again since. The son of Master Of My Fate found betting support which suggests that he was showing good work at home. With the natural improvement that is expected, he should take a power of beating.

Race 6 - GOTTHETIGER (2)


GOTTHETIGER followed up his maiden victory with a good second-place finish over 1600m on this course. He was running on too late at the finish that day. It must be noted that the horse that finished third has come out and won since. He is a horse with ability and if not too far out of his ground turning for home, he can win.

Race 7 - ELUSIVE RED (1) 


ELUSIVE RED finished 0.25 lengths behind DRIVELIKEAMASTER last time. He is 1.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough to turn the form around. He has won once and finished third once from four starts over this C&D. From pole position, he can notch up his third-career victory.

Verdict

 Stilo Novo (Race 3) is Magic Tips' best bet of the day at Turffontein on Thursday.
