Used to tip professionally in the early 2000's, now doing it just for fun. I enjoy mostly horse racing (fav. horses include Kazzia, Goldikova, Bogart, Sky Lantern), football, tennis and US Sports. I like writing anything from a novel to a couple of poems and songs. Multitasking in writing is the best supplier when you get that inspiration rush!

Open

13:07 1:07 Lingfield

Coronado King

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@3.00

Lose

-50

First-time winner last time out at Wolverhampton under Hollie Doyle. It will be the turn of Luke Morris to saddle this Exceed And Excel four-year-old. Might have more to come under a penalty.

12:07 12:07 Lingfield

Towerlands

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@7.00

Win

300

This Earthlight gelding was a first-time winner on the standard surface of Southwell over the mile last time out after a break. Eaves saddled on that occasion, and it will be Rossa Ryan's turn to steer the gelding to another follow-up success should he handle the Lingfield track, which might get a little rain.

@7.50

Lose

-50

Trained by Michael Stidham. A 2-year-old debutante who's shown some fair workout training, even won one with two runners, so tenacity is shown at least. Competitive maiden, and experience may count from connections.

Miss River Rat

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@SP

Lose

-50

A mare who's been going fairly well at Hawthorne and returns to Fair Grounds under a new yard, though a familiar trainer. She goes up in class to a certain extent, but recent form is the hope. Jose Ortiz aboard for the first time, so experience in the saddle.

21:15 21:15 Fair Grounds

Notion

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@4.33

Lose

-50

Won on sloppy ground at another track last year. Thereabouts and has a squeak under a jockey who won once out of four times at this venue.

16:30 Fulham v Crystal Palace

Draw

50 WIN

@3.30

Lose

-50

Palace have beaten Fulham the last two times, both on the road. Fulham blows hot and cold but could have improved under Silva, with three wins in their last five matches. Fulham remains a side that's tough to play against, so the draw is in play.

14:00 Brighton v West Ham

Brighton

50 WIN

@1.57

Lose

-50

Brighton have a chance to enter the top 5 with a win. Brighton were undefeated at home until Villa played them and beat them. Hammers away have just one win, but in their recent five matches they have lost two and drawn three.

14:00 Tamara Korpatsch vs Kamilla Rakhimova

13:00 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

Oscar Piastri

Win Race

50 WIN

@4.33

Lose

-50

Piastri has got a fighting chance to win it all, but he may want to hold back and move to Ferrari if the race doesn't pan out for him here. Still, he's been leading and winning a few races during the 2025 F1 calendar and won't put it past him to finish strong. He almost won last time out.

Oscar Piastri - Yes

Podium Finish

50 WIN

@1.33

Win

The Australian has a strong car and wouldn't just give up and finish nowhere down the field, so at least a podium would be my inclination.

Oscar Piastri - Yes

Points Finish

50 WIN

@1.07

Win

Piastri has to finish at least in the points to give himself a squeak at the overall Drivers' title. A three-way fight means he'll have to gather enough points to finish strong this season.

Oscar Piastri - Yes

Top 6 Finish

50 WIN

@1.11

Win

A top-6 finish would mean putting up a worthy performance by a man who all year had a chance of winning it all this season. So a top-6 finish also delivers a brave performance, nonetheless.

Trainer shows 2 wins out of 6 at this track. A gelding by More Than Ready who returns after almost a month and a half. Last time he finished second in a big stakes at Keeneland, after winning a race at another track. Won here at this venue in February on fast dirt.

Warlord

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.37

Win

Debutante by Daredevil out of Ward's stable. The trainer's experience counts for plenty, and he's had some wins here. Workouts show just one training, and it was a winning time from six runners in November at Keeneland.

Surfin Bayou

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.20

Lose

-50

Debutante from the Larry Rivelli stable. In fact, the trainer has two in this race. Showed improvement in the workouts up until 27th of November. The track is sloppy, so it won't be a cakewalk. Use caution when treading here, but I thought she has a fair chance at the track.

15:00 Blackburn v Sheff Wed

Blackburn

50 WIN

@1.67

Void

Rovers got sidetracked as they faced better teams in the last couple of games. They also won only once at home, but they seem to have found good form prior to the current spell. This is Wednesday they are playing, so there could be more to come from Blackburn this month as a whole.

Yuki Ohashi

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@6.00

Void

One of the two talented strikers up front for Blackburn. He has four goals for the season and scored an important goal at Bristol City to give Rovers the win there.

15:00 Bournemouth v Chelsea

Chelsea

50 WIN

@2.15

Lose

-50

Chelsea and particularly João Pedro have thrived against the Cherries, having scored in the last two matches when the sides met. The Blues dominated the away fixtures H2H so far.

15:00 Everton v Nottm Forest

Nottm Forest

50 WIN

@3.60

Lose

-50

Everton has mixed results at home. They recently lost to Tottenham and Newcastle. Although Forest aren't playing at that level, they recently won two in a row on the road and are in good nick away. Forest are a team that needs points to get away from the relegation zone.

Igor Jesus

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@8.50

Lose

-50

Igor Jesus scored in the last match for Forest. Now that he's broken his duck in the league, he may well continue to be a dangerous attacker for any team.

15:00 Man City v Sunderland

Draw

50 WIN

@6.25

Lose

-50

City are usually strong at home. Sunderland can blow hot and cold, but they keep a tight scoreline and are a side that has surprised many this season.

15:00 Sheff Utd v Stoke

Draw

50 WIN

@3.40

Lose

-50

Stoke has been playing second fiddle when it comes to the two meetings in the last few years. But this catches United in limbo. Yes, they won their last three, but they could now drop points against a rejuvenated Stoke this season.

14:00 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

Oscar Piastri

Fastest Qualifier

50 WIN

@5.50

Lose

-50

Oscar thought he could dominate Qatar, but here he is again in the last race. He's looking to take pole position again and put others on notice. Team decisions have ruined McLaren drivers' chances this year, especially Piastri's, but he's capable of a bold show.

@8.50

Win

Capable individual. Has won two chase races and has not lost with cheekpieces on in two attempts. Was pulled up under this rider last time out, but did get a 2nd in the past. Possibly could well get into the top 3 here if back on song even with a high mark at the moment, although down 2 at the official mark.

12:30 Aston Villa v Arsenal

Arsenal

50 WIN

@1.91

Lose

-50

Arsenal could put further daylight between them and the chasing pack at the top of the league. Villa did win four in a row, but this fixture throws up a mixed bag of results, and Arsenal have won away here in the past.

12:30 Charlton v Portsmouth

Charlton

50 WIN

@2.20

Void

Charlton won five times at home this season, but in recent games, home or away, they have recorded four losses ??" against stronger teams. This is a chance for them to regain a winning mood versus wobbly Portsmouth.

12:30 Tamara Korpatsch vs Anna Lena Friedsam

Tamara Korpatsch

12:30 Watford v Norwich

Watford

50 WIN

@1.95

Win

Last time Watford won at home vs Norwich was back in 2023. The last two matches were won by Norwich away, but this Norwich side is a bit in disarray and Watford are a solid team. I would back them to return to winning ways at home.

Lolly Poppin

Goes down in level. Somewhat inconsistent results: two in the top 3, but two other runs outside of it. Again, will look to make the most at this lower level.

Noble Court

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@3.25

Lose

-50

A Godolphin runner here with Luán Machado possibly getting us a couple of wins early on at Turfway Park. Finished runner-up last time at another track, but that was the first run on an all-weather surface. If picking up where this 2-year-old left off, he would be fighting to win come the final furlong.

@3.50

Lose

-50

Continues to show good times and placed 2nd in a workout last time at Churchill Downs. Had a bumpy ride and somewhat caused a bump when last raced at Belmont, at the Big A, under Franco. Goes up in distance like a few in this race and could be up there.

17:45 5:45 Newcastle

Teardrops

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@3.75

Win

137

Ran just 9 days ago, one of a couple in this race who've had recent engagements, and won in this class under Wood. That was the gelding's maiden win, so won't be far away again from another low draw. Has failed previously from another, higher draw.

Got close last time out, and a decrease in class may do this mare a lot of good. She has a chance following up the runner-up spot from last time over a mile. This time she will return to 6½ furlongs, a trip she last won over.

19:30 Arsenal v Brentford

Arsenal

50 WIN

@1.35

Win

Arsenal has hardly ever lost to Brentford, especially in recent years. In their quest for the title this season, I don't see them dropping points in this fixture to the Bees.

19:30 Brighton v Aston Villa

Aston Villa

50 WIN

@3.10

Win

105

Historically, in their head-to-head encounters, the road team won more, and Villa did win last year's fixture here at the Amex Stadium. Both teams could blow hot and cold, but it's Villa who are in a good spell at the moment.

19:30 Burnley v Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace

50 WIN

@1.80

Win

Two seasons ago Palace did the double over Burnley. This season Palace continues to be a strong outfit but lost their last two competitive matches. They could go back to winning ways vs lowly Burnley.

19:30 Wolverhampton v Nottm Forest

Nottm Forest

50 WIN

@2.00

Win

Forest are in a good spell right now, whereas Wolves can't buy a win, rooted to the bottom of the table. Head to head, Wolves have had more victories, but a lot of draws have happened in recent years between the sides. Forest did win most games against Wolves on the road.
