20:00 Swansea v Wrexham

Draw

50 WIN

@3.30

Lose

-50

Both teams are trying to consolidate their positions in the Championship, and this Welsh derby looks set to produce a shared points affair. Wrexham always look likely to score.

15:35 3:35 Ascot

Bass Hunter

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.75

Win

There looks to be plenty of depth to this listed bumper, but the selection looked a very useful recruit when winning very easily from the front on Rules debut at Newbury. It will be disappointing if he can't follow up after that impressive debut.

@2.25

-50

Won well on chasing debut here early last month and followed that up with an even better performance when second to Wendigo at Newbury with Regent's Stroll behind. Took it up and looked the likely winner three out that day.

13:50 1:50 Ascot

Stencil

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@3.00

Lose

-50

On the back of an OK chase debut at Cheltenham, Stencil can take a big step forward here. Not knocked about in the closing stages at Cheltenham after running quite free early on.

13:15 1:15 Ascot

Dig Deep

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@6.00

Lose

-50

An interesting race and a chance is taken that Dig Deep can come out on top. Ran a great race on UK hurdling debut at Ffos Las when second to the highly touted Starzand, but disappointed a little at Warwick when runner-up again. The Pauling yard continue in decent shape.

18 December 2025

21:00 Michael van Gerwen vs Mitsuhiko Tatsunami

Michael van Gerwen to win 3-0

Leg Betting

50 WIN

@1.22

Lose

-50

Almost classed as an outsider in the betting for this season's competition. It has been a poor season for the former number one and champion, but his class should be way too much for his opponent tonight.

20:00 Dave Chisnall vs Fallon Sherrock

Dave Chisnall to win 3-1

Leg Betting

50 WIN

@3.40

Lose

-50

A clash between two players whose form has somewhat dipped, and this could end up an interesting duel. Chizzy is taken to win, although his averages have hit a low in the 70s, which gives Sherrock hope.

19:00 Jermaine Wattimena vs Dominik Gruellich

Jermaine Wattimena to win 3-0

Leg Betting

50 WIN

@2.40

Lose

-50

Jermaine Wattimena could well be an outsider to watch in this year's competition. He has climbed into the top twenty of the rankings and should have too much for his opponent.

13:05 1:00 Exeter

Hollygrove Cha Cha

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@1.83

Win

That looked a fair first run over fences for the selection when third in a conditions race at Carlisle last month. The drop back into mares' company gives her a great shout.

12:35 12:30 Exeter

Lasko Des Obeaux

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@2.75

Lose

-50

This could end up being fought out by the top two in the betting. With Lasko Des Obeaux having that first hurdle run when a decent second at Chepstow, that experience maybe the difference.

12:30 Callan Rydz vs Patrik Kovacs

Callan Rydz to win 3-0

Leg Betting

50 WIN

@1.91

Win

Can Rydz find the form of last year's event which took him to the last eight? Sadly, that kind of form has mostly deserted him since, but the Pally stage may bring the best out of him again.

Callan Rydz

Most 180s

50 WIN

@1.40

Win

This should be a straightforward task for Rydz, whose 180 hitting is way better than his opponent today. Should be a formality

-50

I like this fella. He made his debut at Stratford, which wasn't going to suit this big horse over an inadequate trip. He was upped in distance on a more suitable track and went in the next time.

13:23 1:23 Newbury

Daydream Nation

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@4.50

Lose

-50

A chance is taken with the Irish raider Daydream Nation, who made the running on his hurdling debut and came into the straight and just went further clear.

16 December 2025

13:30 1:30 Wincanton

Piping Rock

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@2.75

Lose

-50

This could be a battle between the top two in the market, with the penalty for winning last time the difference. Piping Rock ran well on his hurdling debut at Windsor, just losing out to the more experienced rival that day. With that experience gained, he can go one better here.

14 December 2025

Sapphos Word

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@2.00

-50

I felt that Sapphos Word perhaps should have won on rules debut at Uttoxeter, but can go one better today with a professional jockey on top, perhaps making the difference.

14:00 2:00 Southwell

Strong Run

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@2.10

Win

Ran some good races last season in bumpers and started this season off well when third at Newbury. A step up in trip today is just what is needed and should go close.

14:00 Nottm Forest v Tottenham

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@1.75

Lose

-50

Both of these seem attack-minded teams, and the likelihood of good attacking football is encouraging and exciting. So both to score is on the cards.

14:00 Sunderland v Newcastle

Newcastle

50 WIN

@2.25

Lose

-50

This tense local derby could be quite an encounter. Although the home side's record on their own turf is good, I'm going for the class of Newcastle to shine through.

13:10 1:10 Carlisle

Stride On

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.10

Runner-up on hurdling debut to the useful Upon Tweed, who has won again since. The selection has strong claims over this longer trip.

Both of these teams are likely to struggle this season and be in the shake-up for relegation, so a defence-minded approach is likely for both sides.

An impressive winner of a mares' Listed race over course and distance as a novice. Looked somewhat unlucky on reappearance at Wincanton on debut this season.

Created a very favourable impression when winning here in October and can go in again, although there are opponents with some potential in the field.

15:00 Chelsea v Everton

No (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@1.95

Chelsea are in excellent form this season and the visit of Everton shouldn't worry them too much. Keeping a clean sheet looks on the cards.

15:00 Coventry v Bristol City

Coventry

50 WIN

The league leaders have failed to win in their last two games but should have at Preston in the week. They can get back to normality back at the CBS.

Both of these teams were expected to be pushing for a Premiership return. Although the visitors have shown decent form of late, the home side have been a tad in and out. Goals look likely with the attacking flair on show.

Going to go low today at Fratton Park in this game between two teams that are failing to put any sort of run together, so this could turn into a dour affair.

JPR One

@6.00

Lose

-50

This hasn't been the happiest hunting ground for JPR One so far, but he has run in deep company. His latest third at Ascot was a good run, and he may get the strongly run race here that may benefit him.

Tom Symonds' mare is likely to run well at double-figure odds. She improved last season, winning a good race at Ffos Las in April, and ran well on chase debut at Warwick last time.

First went into the notebook when finishing third in a Warwick bumper last season behind No Drama This End and Keops Des Bordes. Shaped well on hurdling debut here, and the drop back to the minimum trip may suit.

There was a lot to like about the selection's win on chase debut up at Carlisle. The nine-pound rise in the handicap may not be enough to stop him going in again.

12:30 Norwich v Southampton

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@1.53

Norwich need the points badly and have to go looking for goals at home. The visitors have really found their form of late and are sure to hit the home side's net.

There was a lot to like about Minella Study's win in the Wensleydale when beating Amess. It will give favourite One Horse Town, who won here last month, plenty to think about.

I'm taking Sheffield United to continue their decent run and take all three points at The Hawthorns. Hamer coming back into the squad is a major plus.

West Brom came from a three-goal deficit at Southampton in the week to nearly grab a draw, so they must take confidence from that attacking-wise. Sheffield United come here on the back of a decent run, so both to score appeals.

She was a decent bumper horse last season and looked a hurdler to follow when winning impressively at Chepstow on debut, beating two horses that have won since: Kripticjim and Modern Man.

20:00 Michael Smith vs Lisa Ashton

Michael Smith to win 3-0

Michael Smith is just going to be too strong for Lisa Ashton in all departments. He is expected to win comfortably in sets, 180s, and 100+ finishes.

Michael Smith

This looks a wide one-way tie in all respects, especially on the 180 front. When Smith gets on a roll, they could come thick and fast.

A fine debut run at Chepstow, and the form of that race has worked out well, with the second, Kripticjim, and third, Modern Man, both winning since. The selection was doing his best work at the end, so the extra two furlongs may well suit.

Leicester are a team full of good players that have seemed to underperform so far this season. A good win at the weekend could send them on a decent run.

Derby's good run came to a halt at the weekend. It could take shoring up at the back to bring their form back to a non-losing one.

19:45 Ipswich v Stoke

Ipswich

50 WIN

@1.65

Ipswich were flattered to beat top-of-the-league Coventry by three goals to nil. That can only spur them on to climb the league towards promotion, beating a Stoke side that conceded four at the weekend.

After winning easily in a Worcester bumper he headed to what turned out to be a very good contest at Warwick that could pay to follow. Cristal D'Estruvql cost a lot of money. The second, Baron Noir, has won since. The third, Bossman Jack, is very well thought of.

Sommaroy will have come on a fair bit after his Ascot hurdling debut. He was making decent headway coming to the last that day when perhaps overjumping at the final obstacle.

Can Coventry beat the dreaded curse of not winning at Preston? Although being top of the league, the home side are performing above expectations, and a share of the points could be a good result for both clubs.

The home side seem to have finally found some form and goal-scoring form. The visitors, as they showed on Saturday, are a big threat going forward but are dodgy at the back.
