Turffontein racecourse hosts a good card today, with the first race set to go off at 11:30am (UK Time). To help you try and find a few winners, here are Magic Tips' South African Horse Racing selections for today.

Turffontein Tips - Saturday 12th September

Race 3 - SANDS OF VALHALLA (3)

SANDS OF VALHALLA was not disgraced in the Grade 2 World Pool Bet With The Best Umkhomazi Stakes last time. He raced green, but stayed on at the finish. The son of Erik The Red should love the rise to 1600m. He is the best-weighted runner and on his seasonal debut, he may be the one to beat.

Race 4 - PRESSONREGARDLESS (1)

PRESSONREGARDLESS produced good form before given a 14-week break. He finished third in the Grade 3 TAB Jubilee Stakes last time. The son of Lancaster Bomber has won once, finished second once and third twice from as many starts over this C&D. If not in need of the run, he should be too good for this field.

Race 5 - GIMME A FIREBALL (3)

GIMME A FIREBALL made the expected natural improvement when victorious over this distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville last time. He showed good speed, found another kick and won with a ton in hand. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The son of Gimmethegreenlight looks to have class about him and can follow up with another victory.

Race 7 - THE LAST DUKE (3)

THE LAST DUKE is better than his last start in the Listed Betway Spring Spree Stakes as he raced wide around the turn without cover. He has won once and finished second once from three starts over this C&D. The son of Duke Of Marmalade has ability and on best form shown, he can notch up his fourth- career victory.

Race 8 - HOT CHOICE (5)

HOT CHOICE made the expected natural improvement when winning her maiden over 1400m on the Standside course. She moved up well and drew clear in the closing stages. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The daughter of Futura takes on stronger, but she has plenty of scope and should be up to the task at hand.

Verdict

Sands Of Valhalla (Race 3) is Magic Tips' best bet of the day at Turffontein on Saturday.
