Win

In decent nick as she makes her debut for her new yard. A very decent third over C&D last time out. Any improvement on that may be enough, with her main market rivals not certain to act on the surface.

20:00 Arsenal v Liverpool

Arsenal & Yes (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

50 WIN

@3.40

Open

Arsenal can go 17 points clear of Liverpool with a win which would all but eliminate the Anfield club from the title race. Slots men will know that too of course and are likely to make a game of it but minus Salah, Isak and perhaps Ekitike as well I dont see Liverpool leaving with anything.

He was 5th in a better race over C&D last time out and has a very decent overall record at this track (twice a winner). Looks a solid each-way option here.

Hit a purple patch this time last year, and having blown the cobwebs away at Cork last month, he should be ready to resume progress here.

The holders Ivory Coast have looked anything but formidable so far and despite being as good as eliminated already Gabon can keep things respectable here.

-50

Not a vintage Cameroon side, but they are well organised and can ensure qualification with a point. That result would also give Mozambique a fighting chance of qualifying as one of the best third-placed teams.

16:00 Equatorial Guinea v Algeria

Equatorial Guinea cannot qualify but do have a decent record against Algeria. Algeria will probably be satisfied with the point they require to guarantee top spot in the group.

Burkina Faso have the bigger reputation, but they have actually beaten the Sudanese. I'm taking Sudan to edge an open game and qualify for the knockout phase.

Likeable gelding who won at Worcester on his last hurdles start and on the face of it has an easier task than that here. Been off since September but if he is fit and firing he has a great chance.

Ran in snatches on bumper debut but still managed to finish fourth. Bred to be better and should have learned a good deal for that experience so given an each way squeak in an open looking finale.

This is a better race than the one he won over C&D last month but he is entitled to come on for that and is taken to complete a hat-rick here.

Decent efforts in two bumpers and not a bad debut over hurdles last time out. The drop in trip here should suit. Definite player given even modest improvement on that hurdles debut.

Has shown some promise but tends to mess about and get side-tracked all too easily. The booking of a vastly experienced jockey may help in that regard today. Each way chance if his mind is kept on the job.

Quite unlucky in running last time we saw him at this track on penultimate start. Going against him last time out on turf but definite place prospects at least back on this surface given a bit more luck in running.

Drop in trip perhaps not ideal but battled very well to get his head in front when making his debut for Johnny Murtagh last month and this looks a weaker contest so an obvious chance.

Out of sorts lately on the flat and over hurdles but best form is as good as anything else in the race and is a certain stayer. Perhaps Billy Lee can cajole a better effort out of him this evening.

1000 Guineas entry looks a bit fanciful after two poor efforts so far but for all that she is very nicely bred and perhaps will be seen to better effect over this shorter trip.

Kodiac colt who ran on well when making debut over 5f here. Extra furlong should suit and will be better for that first look at a racetrack. Solid ew bet from a decent draw.

Hamrun Spartans & Yes (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

50 WIN

@9.00

Lose

-50

Having won one game (v Lincoln Red Imps) the Spartans have a small chance of progressing whereas Shamrock do not. The Maltese gave a decent account against second in the table Ukraine giants Shakthar Donetsk last time out (lost 0-2) and boast an experienced line up included Croatian international play maker Ante Coric. They look a bit long to win this one.

20:00 Sparta Prague v Aberdeen

Draw & Yes (Result + BTTS)

50 WIN

@8.00

-50

Despite drawing Cypriot and Armenian opposition Aberdeen have somehow contrived to find themselves knocked out of the competition with a game to spare. On paper this is their toughest assignment in the Conference League but Sparta only need a point to make the play offs and the Dons are good enough to make sure that is all they get.

Well related French bred gelding who has been allowed to saunter round in a bumper and three qualifying hurdles and now makes his handicap debut off a very low mark.

Decent summer on the flat. Faded at the death on re-appearence over hurdles at Wincanton last time out but this is a weaker race and he seemed to get on well with todays pilot when they paired up at Worcester last season. Given an each way chance in an open looking contest.

The improvement United have shown has hardly been startling but it is real and whilst I would expect Bournemouth to test them here I think this United side are resiliant enough to edge what should be an entertaining tie.

Derby have enjoyed a few good away days this season and backed by a large support they can snaffle another three points on the road against their beleagured hosts.

Well bred gelding with a good yard and a top pilot booked for debut. Probably wont have to be anything above the average to get involved and on paper at least he looks better than that so worth a small each way interest.

@3.40

120

Well the gap at the top is seven points and Real Madrid need to close it with a win at Alaves. It won't be easy, the home side have won two on the bounce whilst Real have been suffering at home and in Europe of late but they should have enough quality to edge this one and keep the title race interesting.

The last top flight game in France of 2025 is the 'derby' between Marseilles and Monaco. The home side are five places and six points better off but Monaco will on a high after beating both PSG and Galatasary recently and they can snaffle a share of the spoils this evening. Score draw.

A much bigger day for St Mirren than Celtic and the Buddies have nothing to lose. Celtic are still trying to fathom quite what it is the new manager wants and haven't looked remotely as if the 'eureka' moment is upon us. A famous day for The Buddies perhaps.

Can be exceptional at this level when the mood takes but that isn't all that often. Still his last run was decent and the favourite besides his rivals are also in and out of form. Dropped in trip and with under foot conditions fine he has each way prospects today.

Hasn't done much of note since joining this yard from Andrew Slattery but some of her Irish form is noteworthy and she has her ground here. Should be race fit after a dawdle around Ayr last month. Solid each way prospect in a poor race.

Not even the most ardent Black Cats fans would have had their favourites on 23 points and above Newcastle at this stage Im sure. Their form is holding well enough, though, perhaps for the first time all season, they were easily beaten last time out. Newcastle are in better form however and have more potential match winners. Im taking the Magpies to edge this one.
