- Go For Broke and One Tiger are tipped to win
Vaal racecourse hosts a decent card today, with the first race set to go off at 11:40am (UK Time). To help you try and find a few winners, here are Magic Tips' South African Horse Racing selections this morning.
Vaal Races Tips - Thursday 3rd September
Race 3 - STEEL PIER (1)
STEEL PIER raced from a handy position over this C&D last time, but found one too good in the form of Special Envoy. The son of The United States runs well for 1.5kgs claiming Apprentice Blaine Marx- Jacobson. He meets the right field and can go one better.
Race 4 - GO FOR BROKE (9)
GO FOR BROKE is the top bet on the programme. She made the expected natural improvement when running on for second over 1200m on the Turffontein Inside course last time. The daughter of Querari steps back up to 1400m and meets the right field. Gavin Lerena steps into the saddle and the combination should find themselves in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 5 - FREE IN SEATTLE (2)
FREE IN SEATTLE hails from the in-form St John Gray stable. She ran a good race when third over 1800m on the Classic course last time. The daughter of Mambo In Seattle returns from a 16-week break, during which time she would have freshened up. She takes a drop in class and if not in need of the outing, she can notch up her fourth-career victory.
Race 7 - GALLIC VICTOR (2)
GALLIC VICTOR was beaten a short-head in his stable debut over 1450m on the Classic course. He challenged strongly but was touched off by Brave Waam who is a progressive individual. The son of Vercingetorix would have come on from the outing. Muzi Yeni steps into the saddle and he may be able to get the best out of him where it matters most.
Race 8 - ONE TIGER (1)
ONE TIGER stayed on when third over 1160m at Turffontein last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. The manner in which he finishes off his races suggests that he should have no issues with the rise to 1400m. The son of One World is racing off a competitive rating and can return to winning ways.
Verdict
Go For Broke (Race 4) is Magic Tips' best bet of the day at Vaal on Thursday.
