In terms of looking at these two teams and asking who will win, the answer would be "Real Madrid" rightly so, if looking at the head to head between these two teams there is a one sided look about it, 38 games have been played sine 1993 and Real Madrid have won 27 and there has been nine draws and Atletico have won just two.... more

Four handicaps of good fields at Doncaster today, with plenty of runners and form to get stuck into. Racing on good ground for once after all the bad weather we were having.

HEAD TO HEAD OVERTURN V SIMONSIG PRICED UP AT 5/2 AND 4/6. We all presume this race is a match between these two talented horses, we and the bookmakers have despatched the other ten runners as also ran, even though they have the potential to mix things up in at the finish. Only want one of these two or both put bad jumps in, and then we have shock on our hands.... more

Twenty four runners come into line for this Listed race over 2 miles and 110yards, with possible indications for a well handicapped horse to do well at Cheltenham, David Pipe father Martin, use to farm this race for the Cheltenham bonus. Last year’s winner Paintball, who is in the line up today, never went to Cheltenham but went to Aintree and was well beaten, not everyone goes to the festival for the bonus.... more

Good ground for the Scottish track and eight runners in this field with at least five have a very good chance of taking a hand in at the finish. IFANDBUTWHYNOT carries top weight and comes from a trainer in very good form. This seven year old raced in the Cheltenham Bumper last season and finished 33 lengths behind Champagne Fever. Ben in good form with two wins to his name.... more

Exeter racecourse has been given the go ahead, after an early morning inspection for the second time due to the heavy rain. Today’s card see’s some useful runners, who could place their mark for a position at the Cheltenham festival, just over a month away now. Many of today’s races have short priced favourites in them and this makes them not a betting proposition, unless betting in accumulators or something equivalent too.... more
