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!

26 December 2025

17:30 Wrexham v Sheff Utd

Nathan Broadhead

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@13.00

Lose

-50

Broadhead has been one of the most influential players for Wrexham this season. He scored the first goal on a couple of occasions and is often dangerous both as a creator and as a goalscorer.

@3.75

Lose

-11

Finished 3rd ten days ago here over 2 miles in a hurdle. That was Ades's second visit to this track. He will now try chasing, but he's the only one who had just three runs compared to most of these and can keep progressing.

-50

A winner at Meadowlands in his younger years, he has been somewhat consistent and finished 3rd of 10 last time out over course and distance. A winning performance is approaching.

Formerly with Andrew Balding, a Frankel colt who did well in a race on the Tapeta at Newcastle. Did finish down the order at Chantilly on the standard surface last time, but is a previous winner on turf, so could bounce back.

22 December 2025

20:00 Fulham v Nottm Forest

Nottm Forest

50 WIN

@3.00

Lose

-50

Fulham has dropped a couple of games at home, and Forest are in an uncertain bubble, though they have found a few wins here and there of late. Forest will face Man City after this, so it will be important for them to come to Craven Cottage undefeated.

@5.50

Win

225

Same-place result when upped in distance by 3 furlongs over at Churchill Downs. Today he will be running again over the mile and a bit. This Not This Time colt won't be given too many bites at that first maiden win, as he looks a consistent sort from the Ward stable.

Encino

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.00

Win

Winner two outings ago with Prat on board when odds-on there. Failed last time out at 5/2 in a stakes, though one that's going to push the race to the line. With Prat in winning mode earlier in the night, it should be an interesting run for the Cox stable.

23:00 23:00 Turfway Park

Civetta

@SP

Lose

-50

Civetta is racing under the shadow of the stable's main runner, the favorite. But she had a good win last time out in a high-level allowance, and debuted with a win when jockey Machado rode her to a winning performance back in August of last year.

22:47 22:47 Oaklawn Park

Zaghruta

@5.00

Win

200

Winner under Saez once. A filly who's thereabouts more times than not. Debuted at this venue back in late 2024 over the mile, just out of the places then, but progressed nicely. Won on the penultimate start at another venue. Just out of the places again last time out, but Saez returns.

@4.00

-50

Won last time out at a lower level, but finished runner-up back in June at Churchill Downs in a similar race. Luis Saez is booked to ride the City of Light filly and may make a difference in ultimately trying to conquer this level.

This Omaha Beach gelding has won the last two contests with Arrieta aboard, and now that he's switching over to another stable, he should continue in good nick.

Rattle N Roll

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.00

Win

Has been in higher-level stakes. Last win came last year in November, but raced in Dubai, then a couple of times including last time out at Churchill Downs. Possesses the ability; just a matter of clicking at the right time.

20:00 Everton v Arsenal

Viktor Gyokeres

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@5.75

Win

238

Gyökeres is of Coventry fame. That is where he made his mark by scoring lots of goals. He then joined Sporting Lisbon, where he scored more goals than at Coventry. He's not scored since October, so he's on the brink of returning to that form.

20:00 Real Madrid v Sevilla

Vinicius Jr.

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@5.00

Lose

-50

Vinícius has not scored in LaLiga since September, but the last time he did it was the first goal. He's an intricate part of the team, assisting when he's not on the scoresheet.

19:45 Juventus v Roma

Lois Openda

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@6.50

Lose

-50

The Belgian international Openda is yet to score for Juve since joining them on loan from Leipzig. He's still young and is the lone striker for Juventus.

15:00 Bournemouth v Burnley

Bournemouth

@1.50

-50

Bournemouth have not won in about five matches, but Burnley have lost all five in that span. The home side should have more in their arsenal to deal with the second-from-bottom.

15:00 Brighton v Sunderland

Sunderland

50 WIN

@5.00

Lose

-50

Home team has won most matches in this fixture. The last away victory happened back in 1989. A lot has changed since then, and Sunderland are a good side this season. The visitors would overtake Liverpool with a win and have Meyenda and Isidor on the bench, and a talented Dutchman up front in the starting lineup.

Brian Brobbey

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@10.00

Lose

-50

Joined Sunderland from Ajax. Scored two goals so far for Sunderland, although not the first one. The first one must be fast approaching and could be against Brighton, a team who already conceded a goal from another Dutchman (vs Aston Villa). Brighton could be on target to concede another one.

15:00 Colchester v Newport County

Colchester

50 WIN

@1.57

Win

Colchester were winning three in a row before running into better, higher-seeded teams in the table. Newport are bottom and haven't had the rub of the green in recent matches.

15:00 Harrogate Town v Milton Keynes Dons

Milton Keynes Dons

50 WIN

@1.65

Win

MK Dons have not set the world alight on the road, but they're facing a side which they beat home and away last season, and a Harrogate side which is in the relegation places.

15:00 Ipswich v Sheff Wed

Ipswich

50 WIN

@1.22

Win

Ipswich had a good run until hitting a Leicester brick wall last time out, but may get on a winning track at home vs. Sheffield Wednesday today, a team who can't catch a break.

15:00 Man City v West Ham

Man City

50 WIN

@1.20

Win

Man City should continue their winning wave against an unlucky West Ham team. The Hammers have not won since a month ago and are conceding in each match. City have a chance to be top with a win.

15:00 Swindon v Crawley Town

Swindon

50 WIN

@1.75

Win

Before this match, Swindon will have their eyes on what Bromley do earlier in the day, as that's the club behind the automatic place in the table??"a place Swindon occupies. Crawley beat Swindon last season at home, although each team won at home in the recent four matches between them, so Swindon should have this regardless of the earlier match.

Seems to be going from strength to strength. Jockey won five times when aboard out of nine. Has a place when visiting this track only once, so won't be out of it from the Henderson yard.

Winner in a Class 3 last time out after a break under this regular jockey. Steps up in class, though should remain competitive under the same jockey.

12:30 Blackburn v Millwall

Andri Gudjohnsen

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@7.00

Win

300

Scored on at least three occasions the first goal, the Icelander. The home side is hoping he'll send them on their way again against a tough visiting team.

12:30 Southampton v Coventry

Leo Scienza

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@9.50

Lose

-50

A capable forward attacker from Southampton. Lots of contenders to score first in this encounter. There's goal power from either side, though at home leaning towards a home player to net the first.

@SP

Lose

-50

A Sea the Stars gelding who has been runner-up in the hurdles in a few runs so far. Returns after a long break; now making a seasonal debut and ridden by a jockey who is a claimer, though he has three wins at Hereford. Expect more from the gelding, who looked green last time out.

Stellar Stream

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@5.50

Lose

-50

Stellar is the only one with course and distance win here. In fact, it happened to be his maiden hurdle win nearly three years ago. This is a mediocre bunch, and a third of six last time out is a fair result. The trainer has a 20% strike rate at Hereford.

Interesting runner who should still be progressing after two runs. Finished just about midfield in both. However, this is a step down in grade.

@SP

-50

Yet to win after a break, but so many in this lineup are. Jockey has been aboard a few times and got a couple of places. There may be something to eke out an improvement, and he would be the tentative selection.

It's take two for this runner here at Turfway since having joined the current yard. Same jockey on board as when placing third over a furlong longer last time out. A hotly contested heat, but with an important non-runner now out of the race.

Bolt D'Oro: 3-year-old filly who won once at this track, a maiden almost 12 months ago at a somewhat higher level. Down now into this claimer after recent so-so efforts, with Walter Rodriguez aboard for the first time.

Finished behind Shankar in a recent race, but jockey Xarel Forde is an up-and-coming claimer and he is 2-for-3 here at the venue. If he gets a tune out of the 5-year-old, the gelding could make things interesting.

Shankar

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@4.33

Win

166

Shankar may well have the run of the race, as a course-and-distance winner last time out. He might go on to show a consistent level with the same jockey on board.

The top two in the betting have met previously, and Mom's Palace came out on top. She is generally consistent. Returns to Turfway Park since her debut earlier in the year when she got third place.

This race may have a good pace to aim at, and Sally's Gold, who was a winner about three races ago, did the treble in the summer. She won here back in late winter, more precisely in January, so she is capable now over 6 furlongs as opposed to 5½ furlongs back then.

Another individual on the Turfway Park card who returns to the venue for the first time since last year, when a second, only to win back in January for Michael Maker. That would be my inclination.

Winner at the track back in 2023, but not much top success since. Will have another chance to make an impression again, and a new jockey aboard in the shape of Gabriel Saez, so not out of it on return to the track.

Mahoning Valley Raider, who comes into this fresh off a win there. This should be his distance, not necessarily his level. With others not tempting too much enthusiasm, this one's not out of it with the regular jockey on board.

Derby has beaten better teams this past November but have slipped in a couple of ten encounters or a draw with Millwall recently. Sheffield Wednesday defeated Derby for the past four or five encounters, but this year's Wednesday is not a team playing with confidence.

A 2-year-old grey filly by Havana Grey. Interesting that she is a grey filly living up to the name. Shoemark is tasked with getting her first past the post after a debut in which she was hampered at the start, so it was not the ideal introduction to racing.
