Cricket Betting Tips: Pacey Archer can arrow in on Pakistan’s frail top-order June 2, 2019 IT HAS been a long time since England have had a bowler who has the pace to genuinely unsettle opposition batsmen. However, in Jofra Archer’s short international career, he has already shown that he has that ability. The Barbadian-born seamer showed in both the IPL and Big Bash what he could bring to this England [...]
Cricket Betting Tips: In-form England batsmen to cash in at Trent Bridge against Pakistan June 2, 2019 I AM not sure either Eoin Morgan or coach Trevor Bayliss could have hoped for a much better start to England’s World Cup campaign. In what looked like a potentially tricky opener on paper, the pre-tournament favourites brushed aside South Africa with consummate ease, confirming that they are the side to beat in the tournament. [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Lake Volta can keep punters afloat in the lucky last May 31, 2019 EPSOM Downs will be littered with losing betslips come the final race of the two-day Investec Derby Festival, and hopefully we can lighten the load of Sunday’s clean-up operation by putting up a winner in the last. You may not need to look any further down the racecard than top-weight LAKE VOLTA, who you may [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Back Sextant to get the measure of handicap rivals May 31, 2019 IT WON’T take an expert to pick out SEXTANT as the most likely winner of the penultimate race today. Sir Michael Stoute’s fast-improving four-year-old is getting better with every gallop, and though he may not be the biggest price winner you’ll ever back, he looks a very solid bet at 9/4. So many of Sir [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Sir Dragonet has come a long way since Tipperary win May 31, 2019 WITH no less than seven runners in Saturday afternoon’s Investec Derby (4.30pm), Aidan O’Brien has a very strong chance of securing a record equalling seventh win in the world’s most famous Flat race. O’Brien’s runners have been popular in the betting since the end of last summer and ante-post punters may have already invested in [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Eeh Bah Gum and Muthmir set to Dash to success May 31, 2019 FASTEN your seatbelts and get ready for the Investec Dash, one of the fastest races you will ever see. Epsom’s downhill five furlong track is like no other in the world and back in 2012 Stone Of Folca set a new world record when winning this race in 53.69 seconds, the quickest since electronic timing [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Bye Bye Hong Kong, Hello Epsom Downs May 31, 2019 ANDREW Balding and Silvestre de Sousa have some very big fish to fry for King Power Racing this weekend, notably Bangkok in the Derby, but I expect them to be celebrating after BYE BYE HONG KONG wins the Investec Diomed Stakes. The Kingsclere-based handler has won this prize a joint record three times with Tullius, [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Nerium will send punters into delirium in Princess Elizabeth May 31, 2019 THERE was a sense of what might have been for those punters who backed ANNA NERIUM in last year’s Princess Elizabeth Stakes. Richard Hannon’s four-year-old was drawn wide and forced to sit out the back for the majority of the race, only really getting going when the eventual winner Wilamina was away and gone. She [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Politicise can get things off to a flyer for the in-form Haggas May 31, 2019 THERE hasn’t been a winning favourite of the Investec Private Banking Handicap in the last decade and I expect that to continue this afternoon. The Andrew Balding-trained Le Don De Vie and Mark Johnston’s Nayef Road are the two currently vying for favouritism and you can see why they will have their supporters. The latter [...]
