John Higgins

Win Match

50 WIN

@-136

Win

These two have had some battles over the years, and the honours are close, with John being 10-9 up. Both players have had similar records of late, but as John won their last match 10-7 and their only meeting in the Masters 6-1, he is the tip to win.

If John makes those mistakes that he has kept in his game of late, he could end up losing the match. I think both players have started letting mistakes into their games, but John usually finds a way back. He is picked to win with the -1.5 handicap.

Win Match

-50

Despite Kyren being 7-2 up on Si Jiahui overall, his form has been mixed in normal competition of late. Jiahui has a good record of playing well in the bigger competitions and is more than capable of beating Kyren, so he is tipped for the upset win.

Si Jiahui has shown more than capable of winning matches against top players in the past and can never be discounted. Kyren is 7-2 up overall, so Si will have his work cut out. But even if losing, I don't think that he will be well beaten, and the -1.5 in the handicap looks a good bet.

I think that this match could go all the way and go down to the last one or two frames, as their last three matches show. I don't think that Si will be totally beaten if he loses, but I have backed him to win 6-4.

Trap 6 is fastest out but could lose out from scratch, so the vote goes to Trap 4, who should hold his position early and quickly close on the leaders. As fastest overall, the 4m start could be crucial to his chances, but he still looks the one to beat.

With traps 4 and 6 faster out trap 5 could get a good run to the bend and barring a bump should remain competitive from start to finish hopefully getting up on the line.

Trap 2 could be hard to beat with a similar run to last time. She was 2nd there and had traps 1, 3, 4, and 6 all behind. With another good start she should go one better.

When starting better, trap 2 has won 5 times, all in D4. He ran better when dropped to this grade last time, finishing 2nd after a faster start. Another good start could see him lead the inside runners and go on to win.

Although I have bet Zhao to win this match, it could go either way. Zhao looks to be a bit more consistent and, despite being 4-3 down overall, is tipped with the -2.5 handicap mark.

Both.players have mixed form of late in the Championship League with Zhao winning their last match 3-2. Gary is 4-3 up overall winning their first 4 meetings from 2016 to 2020 by no less than 2 clear frames but Zhao won 5-1 at the end of 2020. As Gary has proved inconsistent for a long time I think that Zhao to win 6-2 is a fair bet.

This one is a four-time winner from 20.5f to 23f on good to heavy going. She was still leading when jumping right and fell at the 13th on her seasonal return. At 16/1, she could be worth another each-way chance over what looks like her best trip.

Stable are in good order and this one seems to be attracting some support against the favourites. She improved to win a bumper on her third attempt and was 6th over 20f on her hurdle debut after 11 months off. She could improve for the run and is shortlisted to go well.

With the form of this race not looking the strongest, it could pay to side with this one on debut. The stable are going well, and this one is related to several winners from 5f to 7f. If ready to go, it could be hard to beat from a good draw.

This one is a seven-time winner from 19f to 25.7f on ground from good to heavy. He returned to form off his low mark of 80 over 25f last time. Despite going up 7 lb, he has won off 93 in the past, so is still well in and worth the nap to follow up under the same jockey and same trip.

This one's early form here was mixed but overall good. Her last 2 wins were over C/D in Sep and Dec the latest under this jockey on only her 2nd run on her. She was a staying on 3rd off this mark last time and could go well off the same mark on this jockeys return.

Trap 1 can start fast and has recorded fast times when leading. As Trap 4 won in the fastest time last time, a 2-grade hike could spoil her chances. Traps 2 and 4 both weaken late, so Trap 1 could stay best for the win.

The early pace looks to come from traps 5 and 6, but trap 1 has the split time to follow them around. She has been recording some fast times, and any bumping out wide could see her lead by the second bend and go on to win.

Trap 1 is slow out but can show good early pace to the bend. Trap 2 is faster overall but erratic at the traps. I have gone for Trap 1 to win narrowly late on.

Trap 6 is fastest out and has recorded some fast times, so could lead all the way. The one that stands out on times is the slow-out Trap 1, who is a multiple A5 winner, recording times under 27 sec regularly. If missing a bump at the start, Trap 1 could take this race on the line.

This one hasn't won since Oct 24 but is a three-time turf winner at Brighton, with his other win coming over C/D off 53. He has been running well of late and is only 1 lb higher than his win here, so he has to enter the shortlist.

This one won at Plumpton in April 2024 over 25.7f but unseated rider there over 27f when going into third. He hasn't been the same since but is running off bottom weight, only 1 lb higher than that last win. He needs to improve but has no issues on the trip or going, so worth the each-way at 28/1.

There should be little between the principals in this, but the pick goes to this one. He won an Irish point, and after finishing 2nd on his bumper debut, he won on his hurdle debut up in trip to 20f. He drops 1f in trip but could still be hard to beat.

This one won by a short head on his second time of asking over hurdles under this jockey, but it was 10 lengths and a distance back to the rest. He was disqualified and placed 2nd but was a 23-length winner next time up to 25f despite jumping left and could win on chase debut dropped back in trip. Stable and jockey are struggling for winners is the negative.

Trap 4 could be hard to beat with a good start, but he doesn't always start well. He is fastest overall, but the vote goes to Trap 6, who is regularly fast out and has improved her times. She had a good trial on return from a break and could lead all the way.

Both dogs 5 and 4 are from the same kennel and look to be the ones to beat. Trap 6 has the fastest split time but can miss the break; it still shows good early pace. Trap 5 is a regular fast starter and a frequent winner, so it is the pick to lead early and hold off trap 6 for a narrow win.

Trap 5 looks the likely leader out wide. As the other split times suggest crowding, she could go clear as the fastest overall. I have gone for Trap 1 to possibly miss any trouble inside and follow Trap 5 around, taking over late on, having had her behind twice recently, confirming that form.

The early pace looks to be between traps 4 and 6, with trap 6 fastest overall. Despite that, trap 1 has a good make-up with trap 2 vacant and should make the bend in third place. Only trap 6 is faster, so any crowding out wide could see trap 1 in the mix late on.

Trap 1 and 3 can be fast out but are erratic at the traps, and a slow start could see them struggle. The more solid contender is Trap 2, who is not as fast out but stays best and is more consistent on the clock. A good start could see Trap 2 take the opener.
