News Corp’s Editorial Director for Racing and Wagering, Daniel Sankey, assesses the 10-race card at Seymour on Tuesday.

BEST BET

SEA OF LIGHTS (Race 4 No.10 – $2.20): Returned this campaign with a fast closing third at Ballarat. Back to mares grade today and the mile suits.

NEXT BEST

MAGARTEN (Race 7 No.2 – $3.10): Impressive jumpout winner at Mornington on June 12 and has placed two from three first up.

SPICY MARGS (Race 10 No.10 – $4.40): Unlucky second-up when couldn’t find clear galloping room at the 200m. Can make amends.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■

VALUE BET

DAIYA (Race 5 No.11 – $10): Loomed first-up at Ballarat but couldn’t sustain sprint in the final 100m. Fitter now and crying out for 1600m.
