29th March 2026
10:30 Quetta Gladiators vs Hyderabad Kingsmen T20
Quetta Gladiators
Win Match
50 WIN
Gladiators don't look like one of the stronger teams, but they might have enough to win this. They have some decent bowlers, but their batters didn't impress in their opening defeat to Kings. They play another team that should struggle, the Kingsmen. Hyderabad Kingsmen were well beaten by Qalanders in their opener. Admittedly Qalanders look a quality team, but the way the Kingsmen batters folded was alarming.
11:43 11:43 Sunderland
Liffeyside Oak
Daily Races
50 WIN
Liffeyside Oak was bumped back to 5th at Bend One last time but ran on to claim second. Despite the bump, it still ran a faster time than any of today's rivals' last efforts. It clearly looks like it can win at A6 and has a great chance today.
12:51 12:51 Sunderland
Sleepy Bale
Daily Races
50 WIN
Sleepy Bale has been keeping better company than today, so has a good chance in this one. In its last four races it has been bumped or crowded but has a better chance of a clear run today against these. When last getting a clear run, it won in an impressive time.
13:45 Meath v Cork
Cork
FT Result
50 WIN
When the sides met in round 4, Cork edged it by 2 points in a very close game. This should be another close affair, so I'm surprised the odds are that far apart. Meath do have a habit of scoring goals, but if Cork can defend well against that, an unchanged side can grind out the win.
15:00 Hull FC v Catalan Dragons
Catalan Dragons
To Win
50 WIN
Two sides that are very capable on their day but way too inconsistent. Hull had an impressive fightback to beat the Rhinos last time but are far from certain to replicate that today. Prior to that win they had looked very ordinary, losing three on the trot. The Dragons come into this with back-to-back wins, including an impressive win over KR last time. At the odds they look the pick.
Over 38.50
Total Points
50 WIN
Neither side has really racked up the points so far, but both looked more impressive last week. Catalans scored 26 against KR and Hull 24 against Rhinos. I see this being a close encounter, with at least one of them making it into the mid to high 20s, which should take this over.
15:00 Lahore Qalandars vs Karachi Kings T20
Lahore Qalandars
Win Match
50 WIN
I think Qalandars are the strongest side in the competition and impressed in their opening win. Kings look like a well-drilled side and won't be a pushover, but I have to give Qalandars the edge.
15:00 Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders T20
Mumbai Indians
Win Match
50 WIN
KKR struggled for consistent bowling last year, but the capture of Seifert and Allen should certainly help. It's the bowling that might be the issue in this one, though, as Harshit Rana, Matheesha Pathirana, and Akash Deep will miss out with injury. Indians are arguably the strongest side in the competition. They look the business on paper, and with such squad depth, the selected starting 11 know they will have to perform.
16:00 Kerry v Donegal
Donegal 2.50
Handicap
50 WIN
With the Championship on the horizon, it's often questionable just how much the sides want this league final. As the underdogs, I think Donegal may be the hungrier team, and I'd expect them to name a strong squad. They don't have the flair of Kerry, but they are a well-drilled side that will hang in there and look capable of keeping within two.
17:30 Leeds Rhinos v Warrington Wolves
Warrington Wolves
To Win
50 WIN
Rhinos impressed in blitzing KR in the US and beating Castleford and York. However, the way they capitulated last week against Hull suggests they aren't infallible. Warrington are having a much stronger season and have won all four games. They have inflicted defeats on top-four sides Wakefield and St Helens and were absolutely dominant when beating Castleford 72-6 last time. They barely made a handling error and look a force going forward. Despite the odds, I think they have the quality to win this.
Warrington Wolves 6.50
Handicap (2-way)
50 WIN
I think Warrington will win this, but a safer bet would be with the 6.5 start. They've won all four games, beating quality sides Wakefield and St Helens, and thrashing Castleford 72-6 last time. Rhinos have impressed at times, but last week against Hull they looked fragile when Hull attacked. A quality Warrington side should at least hang in there.
18:40 PIT Pirates @ NY Mets
NY Mets
Money Line
50 WIN
Mets have won both games, scoring an impressive 15 runs combined. I see them hitting well again against Mlodzinski, who looks like a pretty ordinary pitcher. McLean takes the mound for the Mets. He impressed last season with a 2.06 ERA over 8 starts. Mets have the advantage in this one.
19:10 CHI White Sox @ MIL Brewers
MIL Brewers
Money Line
50 WIN
White Sox have been uncompetitive in the two games so far, losing 14-2 and 6-1. I don't see things getting any better today. May takes the mound for them; he did well in Japan but has come up short in the MLB. In his time there he regularly posted figures north of a 5.00 ERA. Sproat isn't exactly an elite pitcher for the Brewers, but with the Brewers hitting far better than the Sox, I see them winning cosily.
19:15 TB Rays @ STL Cardinals
Over 8.00
Game Totals
50 WIN
Both games have gone over so far, with the Cardinals winning 9-7 and 6-5. I can see a similar total today. Matz is on the mound for the Rays, who, although capable on his day, can struggle against the better teams. With the Cardinals striking the ball well, I see him struggling to contain them. May for the Cardinals doesn't impress, so I see the Rays also adding a decent tally.
23:30 Victoria vs South Australia Sheffield Shield
Victoria
Draw No Bet
50 WIN
Victoria have been the more consistent side. They have a quality top order and a more potent bowling attack. I think their superior bowling tips it in their favour.
23:45 Houston Open
Chandler Blanchet
25 EW
I'm persisting with Blanchett this weekend, with form that defies his odds. At the Puerto Rico Open he produced three impressive rounds of 64, 67, and 67, but a poor 74 cost him the win by one stroke. He again impressed last week when he was joint leader at one point, but a poor weekend dropped him to 18th. The talent is clearly there, and sooner or later he will win at a huge price.
Chris Gotterup
25 EW
Gotterup was overheard moaning to his caddy at the Players that he couldn't wait to play at the Houston Open instead. It's not hard to see why, as its generous fairways suited his big-hitting, aggressive style. I see him returning to his winning ways from earlier this year when he won back-to-back tournaments. He thrives under pressure and can prevail against a not very strong field.
Marco Penge
50 WIN
Penge was a fine 4th last week and this course may be a better fit for him. He is one of the best for driving distance, and his long approach shots have been up there with the best. I think he goes really well this weekend.
Pontus Nyholm
25 EW
It's a tough ask to feature at 500-1, but this course should be right up Nyholm's street. The course is ideal for people who can hit it far off the tee but also accurately. Nyholm hits it far and is accurate enough to keep it out of the trees. He was 16th at the recent Puerto Rico Open and 13th at the Cognizant Classic. If his putting goes well, he can perform a lot better than expected.
10th May 2026
14:00 Pakistan Super League 2026
Lahore Qalandars
Outright Winner
25 EW
It's a chaotic PSL this season with no crowds, just two venues, and substandard players due to them bizarrely scheduling it against the IPL. Qalandars won last season and have won three of the last four. They retain a strong squad. They possibly have the best selection of bowlers, and although the batting could be said to be a bit too heavy, there is quality there. I expect a strong performance from them.
27th May 2026
14:00 Indian Premier League 2026
Gujarat Titans
Outright Winner
25 EW
According to the bookies, Gujarat Titans are the second-worst side in the competition, but I don't see it. Jos Buttler is a concern after a poor T20 World Cup campaign, but he is too good a player to keep playing that badly. I see him enjoying the fresh start. Even if he underperforms, there are enough quality batters in the side to step up. I also like their mix of bowlers and can see them going deep.
Mumbai Indians
Outright Winner
50 WIN
Mumbai Indians look the strongest side on paper and should go well. They had the best net run rate last season but just missed out on the play-offs by one point. They have a wealth of batting talent to choose from, although perhaps they are over-reliant on Bumrah in the bowling department. That may not matter, as I see them posting consistently high scores.
14:00 Indian Premier League 2026 Mumbai Indians
JJ Bumrah
Top Team Bowler
50 WIN
I'm just not convinced by Boult at the moment and think Bumrah is a much more reliable option. You can guarantee he will play his full quota of overs each match and simply looks the best, most consistent wicket-taker.
9th September 2026
11:00 County Championship Division 2 2026
Lancashire
Outright Winner
50 WIN
Lancashire underperformed, finishing 5th despite having a strong squad. They've really impressed with signings over the winter, enrolling quality players at this level, so I see them doing a lot better than 5th.
15th September 2026
11:00 County Championship Division 1 2026
Warwickshire
Outright Winner
25 EW
Warwickshire finished down in 5th last season but were hampered by drawing nine games, the most in the league. They've strengthened their squad and look capable of a better performance this season.
6th December 2026
13:00 Formula 1 Drivers Championship 2026
Max Verstappen
50 WIN
Verstappen kept himself in the title race last season despite clearly not having the best car. That speaks volumes about his skill, which should see him once again go well this season. Despite him slamming the new regulation, it should be to his benefit as he has the skills to master the new designs. The Red Bull has looked very promising in practice, so I rate him as the most likely winner.
