20:13 8:13 Romford

New Destiny

Daily Races

50 WIN

@1.44

Lose

-50

New Destiny's races away from Romford have been mixed, but back at Romford the dog is a regular winner. Its last three runs at the track and distance have yielded three wins. The dog is not the fastest from the traps, but its middle pace usually gets it to the lead before the second bend. It has run close to breaking 35 seconds for the distance, and that sort of time should win it this race.
20:00 Castres v Bath

Bath

To Win

50 WIN

@1.35

Win

17

Form for the group gives Bath a decent chance of winning away at Castres. Castres lost to a Gloucester side that had been beaten by a Munster side that Bath thrashed. Complicated, but that form makes Bath a firm pick for me in this match.
20:00 Edinburgh v Gloucester

Edinburgh -19.50

Handicap

50 WIN

@2.00

Lose

-50

With Gloucester in such poor form in all competitions and Edinburgh needing a bonus-point win to have any chance of progressing in the competition, this match should be one of constant attack by Edinburgh. The handicap concession is big, but such is the poor recent form of Gloucester that the home team may just be able to do it.
19:13 7:13 Romford

Zenith Kindy

Daily Races

50 WIN

@1.73

Lose

-50

Zenith Kindy is in prime form right now and has been winning in A1 at the track by wide margins. Its times are the best on offer in this race, and its track experience will be a big plus, as several other dogs in this race have very little experience at the tricky Romford circuit.
19:00 Cameroon v Morocco

Morocco #2-0

50 WIN

@6.50

Win

275

Cameroon pushed their luck against South Africa and were fortunate winners. I cannot see Morocco being as wasteful, and I expect them to win this match. Morocco scored six in qualifying with just one conceded. I fancy they can win this game to nil.
14:57 2:57 Newcastle

Alba Gu Brath

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@1.50

Win

25

Alba Gu Brath bumped into a smart horse last time out and ended up a beaten favorite. It still sets the mark in this race and will hopefully improve a place today in what looks like a softer race.

Him Malaya

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@5.50

Lose

-50

Him Malaya re-opposes American Sniper today with a 4 lb pull for the 2 lengths it was beaten last time out. The horse should have a fair chance of reversing form with that rival and looks solid for a placed run in this race.

23:30 Australia vs England

Australia

Win Match

50 WIN

@1.67

Win

34

A crazy test last time out saw England get a rare win Down Under. That result is unlikely to be repeated if normal cricket returns in this game. Australia have been better in all departments, and I expect them to win this match.

Australia

50 WIN

@1.44

Win

22

Unless the weather intervenes, Australia should be able to get back to the cricket that saw them take a 3-0 lead in the series. The last game between the two sides can be discounted, and Australia have been the better side in all departments so far in this series.
20:15 Burnley v Man Utd

Burnley

50 WIN

@5.60

Lose

-50

With United being manager-less, there may be some confusion about what system they are playing. That may give Burnley a chance to take advantage and nick a goal. If they defend well, they may be able to get a rare win.

Draw #0-0

50 WIN

@13.00

Lose

-50

Burnley average 1 goal per game on average but less in recent games. They may be able to keep United goalless as United are missing a few of their top scorers and have only drawn 3 of their last 5 games.
19:30 Fulham v Chelsea

Draw #1-1

50 WIN

@7.50

Lose

-50

Both sides are in good form.and both have been scoring regularly. Fulham scored 2 against Liverpool but face a Chelsea side that have a better defense than Liverpool. I think that both will score and draw this game .
19:30 Man City v Brighton

Man City

50 WIN

@1.48

Lose

-50

City's momentum has slowed in the last 2 games with 2 draws. They are still creating a lot of chances and will score a few before long. Brighton are not in great form and have only won 1 of their last 6 games.
17:30 5:30 Kempton

Free Your Spirit

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@1.83

Win

41

Connections were expecting a lot from Free Your Spirit on debut, and the horse was sent off at odds-on 1 to 3. It ran fourth of five that day, but the run did the horse a power of good, and it made amends in no uncertain terms on its third run. It looked very progressive that day, and there should be plenty more to come.
06 January 2026
20:00 West Ham v Nottm Forest

Draw #1-1

50 WIN

@7.00

Lose

-50

West Ham scored 2 goals in 2 of their last 3 home games but did not win either game. They should get 1 in this game as Forest conceded around 1.5 goals per game and have lost their last 4. Forest have been scoring, though, and should also get a goal.
19:00 7:00 Southwell

Imola

Daily Racing

50 WINNAPNOTENon runners at 10.0 or more so no R4 deduction

@2.62

Win

81

Imola has been running well without getting its head in front. It is rated to do just that in this race and just needs to time its run better to get up late in this race.
05 January 2026
16:00 Egypt v Benin

Egypt #3-0

50 WIN

@9.00

Lose

-50

Egypt rested a lot of players in their last game when already qualified and produced a poor display. They will have all their first team back for this game. If they play as well as they did in their first two games, they should beat a weak Benin side easily. Benin are very lucky to have got to this game after scoring just one goal over three qualifiers.
04 January 2026
19:00 South Africa v Cameroon

Cameroon #2-1

50 WIN

@10.00

Win

450

Both sides have been in the goals, but Cameroon are unbeaten and have a good record in qualifying matches. They only lost out on top spot on goal difference and should make it through this K.O. match if they get two goals.

50 WIN

@1.50

-50

Born Racer has won its last three races in the grade over track and distance. It gets trap 1 in this race and set its best time when last in the trap. It looks sure to lead, and it has the best end times.
17:43 5:43 Towcester

Slick Sentinel

Daily Races

50 WIN

@1.61

Lose

-50

Slick Sentinel has won its last 2 races in open class and is well boxed for an early lead and another win. It tends to go very wide but usually manages to make up for that with a clear run.
17:30 Man City v Chelsea

Man City

50 WIN

@1.57

Lose

-50

Man City created enough chances to win their last game 3-0. They had scored 22 goals over their previous five matches, and they should score enough to beat a misfiring Chelsea side that have just lost their manager.

Tr Cool in Trap 1 should lead the race, but Fabulous Aria has better end times and should be able to follow the No. 1 dog closely before passing it late on.

Moon Over The Sea

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@6.50

Win

165

Moon Over The Sea was beaten 3½ lengths by Krissy a few weeks ago, but now has a 5 lb pull and the assistance of the talented Gina Mangan in the saddle. The horse has been running well enough to think it will place at least in this race.
16:00 Morocco v Tanzania

Tanzania

50 WIN

@23.00

Lose

-50

Morocco were top of a very weak group, and I am surprised that they are odds-on for this match. Tanzania scored in all three group games, and that included Ivory Coast and Tunisia. I think they will score in this game and hold out for the win.
03 January 2026
19:00 Mali v Tunisia

Tunisia

50 WIN

@3.50

Lose

-50

Mali failed to win any of their group games and scored just 2 goals. Tunisia were not great in their group but did manage 6 goals. Two goals for them in this match should see them win.

Tunisia #2-0

50 WIN

@15.00

Lose

-50

I will take Tunisia to win to nil even though they conceded 5 over 3 group games. Mali only managed 2 goals in their group games and drew all 3 games.

Connacht were hammered by the then-winless Dragons a few weeks ago, and that is poor form to bring to a game against a top side like Leinster. This should be an easy home win for that side.

Northampton are flying right now and look the best side in the Premiership by a margin. They should win this match easily against Harlequins, who sit third-bottom with just two wins from eight played. One of those wins was against the hapless Red Bulls.
16:00 Senegal v Sudan

Senegal #3-0

50 WIN

@5.80

Senegal won 2 of their 3 qualifiers 3-0 and should get at least that many against a Sudan side that scored 1 but conceded 7 in their group games.

Stade Francais

50 WIN

@1.13

6

Stade Français do not look bombproof here after three results that were less than impressive. They had beaten third-placed Toulon easily before that, and I am hopeful that they will be able to get back to near that form and win this match.

15:00 Brighton v Burnley

Brighton

50 WIN

@1.53

Win

26

With Burnley having such great trouble scoring goals, I must go with Brighton to win this match, even though neither side is in good form. Brighton can be forgiven for losing their last two away games, as they were at Arsenal and Liverpool. They showed enough in the Arsenal game to think they will be able to score the one goal that will likely win this game.

Brighton #1-0

50 WIN

@8.00

Lose

-50

Brighton are not in great form, but they should be able to beat a Burnley side that keep conceding goals. Burnley have let in 37 so far, at a rate of 2 conceded for every 1 they score. I cannot see Brighton running away with this game, but I do see them getting their season average of 1 goal per game and winning narrowly.
15:00 Wolverhampton v West Ham

Wolverhampton

50 WIN

@2.50

Win

75

The recent stats suggest that Wolves are close to winning their first game of the season. They have scored in 4 of their last 5 games and only lost by the odd goal away at Arsenal and Liverpool. They got an away point at Man United, and they face a West Ham side in this match that have conceded almost as many as Wolves have. West Ham only average 1 goal per game scored, and I doubt that 1 goal will be enough.

West Ham #1-0

50 WIN

@11.00

Lose

-50

I think that Wolves will win this game after a few matches in which they have shown a lot of improvement. The nagging doubt remains over their inability to score goals. I will hedge on the 0-1 result, as they have just 11 goals from their 19 games so far but have conceded 40. If West Ham get a goal in this game, then they should be good enough to hold out for the win.
13:30 Perpignan v Toulouse

Toulouse

To Win

50 WIN

@1.25

Lose

-50

Top versus bottom here, and 1 to 4 for the top side seems generous. Toulouse have scored 532 points to Perpignan's 191 and conceded 281 to Perpignan's 373. This game should be a win for the away side. Toulouse have won their last 5 games and 10 of their 13 played overall. Perpignan have won just once.

The Reverend won two Class 2 handicaps on the Flat over 12 and 14 furlongs and has joined the top Willie Mullins stable. Connections seem to have found a suitable race for its hurdle debut, and it would only have to jump safely to win this race.
12:30 Aston Villa v Nottm Forest

Aston Villa

50 WIN

@1.83

Win

41

Villa may have lost their last game away at Arsenal, but if they had taken one of two great early chances, the result might well have been different. They look to have plenty of goals in the side, with two in-form strikers converting a few of the many chances they have been creating.

Aston Villa #1-0

50 WIN

@8.50

Lose

-50

Forest have not scored in 3 of their last 5 games and lost 4 of those 5. They face a tough task getting anything from Villa, who have been in great form. Villa have two in-form strikers and have won 11 of their last 12 games. I think that Forest will be on the back foot all day in this match, but they seem better doing that than playing defensively minded teams. With Forest unlikely to score, a Villa win of 1??"0 or 2??"0 is my idea of the result.
02 January 2026
19:45 Cagliari v AC Milan

AC Milan

50 WIN

@1.57

Win

28

Milan have lost just 1 of 16 games and sit 2nd in the table. They score just under 2 goals per game and concede under 1 per game. They should be able to do enough to beat a Cagliari side that score and concede about a goal a game but have lost 7 of their 17 games.

Draw #1-1

Cagliari have drawn a third of their games so far, and that is probably because of their stats of 1 goal per game scored and conceded. With Milan averaging 2 goals per game scored and just under 1 per game conceded, it may be that Cagliari will be able to maintain their season average and draw this match.
19:45 Ulster v Munster

Ulster

To Win

50 WIN

@1.40

Win

20

Munster's recent form just does not look good enough for them to beat Ulster in this match. They lost at home to Leinster and the Stormers and barely beat a Connacht side that had lost to the then-winless Dragons. They also scraped past an Ospreys side that were bottom of the table at that time. Ulster look far too good for them on that form.
19:30 Eibar v Mirandes

Draw

Two sides towards the bottom of the table with similar goals-scored stats and only slightly different concession stats. Eibar did have a fine win last match, but overall this game cries out for a draw to me. Eibar lost at home to two sides around them in their last few games, and Mirandés look good enough to get something from this game.
18:45 Gil Vicente v Sporting

Sporting

Gil Vicente have drawn their last 4 games against weaker sides than Sporting, and their early-season form is fading. I much prefer Sporting for the win here, as they have only lost once so far from 13 games played and scored a division-topping 46 goals but only conceded 8.
17:30 Al Ahli Jeddah v Al Nassr Riyadh

Draw

I fancy the away win here, but such are the defensive stats of both sides that a draw is a distinct possibility. Both only conceded around 1 goal per game at best, and they have only lost 1 game between them from a combined total of 22 games.

Al Nassr Riyadh #1-0

50 WIN

@13.00

Lose

-50

Al Nassr are top of the table and Al Ahli are 4th. Both have tight defenses, but Al Nassr have scored more than twice as many goals as Al Ahli. Al Ahli average 1 goal per game but will find scoring against the mean Al Nassr defense tough. That is why I will take the away side to nick a goal and see it out for the win.

26

Connections must be expecting a big run from Salacres Elunico, as its price has been hammered down to odds-on for this race. Its form over 712 is mixed, but it must be showing lots at home. It did win at the distance in open grade back in March of this year.

A plum draw for a dog in form makes A Bit Of Betsy my selection for this race. The dog remains in A8 despite a fast time for the grade last time up. If it gets its usual quick break and lead, it will take a lot of beating.

Nolas Jackson clocked two fast times in trials after leading from pillar to post. She has not had that luxury in her two proper races the last twice, but still clocked decent times. If she can get out a little closer to the lead, she should improve enough to win this race.

There seems little doubt in my mind that Wilstar is the most likely winner of this race if it runs anywhere near its bumper form. It has all the aids for this run, with a tongue tie and a wind operation. The market is positive, and Sean Bowen is riding at the top of his game.
