20:00 Brentford v Tottenham
Tottenham
50 WIN

Spurs look well placed to take this. Their attacking quality and pace should create plenty of chances, especially if the game opens up early. When Tottenham get into rhythm, they can overwhelm teams very quickly.

This matchup has goals written all over it. Tottenham play with pace and constantly attack. Brentford are strong at home, direct, and very capable of scoring. So with both sides that can create chances and both comfortable playing end to end, the game flow should suit a very open, high-scoring match here.
Yes (BTTS)

Brentford attack well at home and create chances consistently. Tottenham have the firepower up front and often score even when conceding. Looking for an open-ended game here with goals at both ends.
Tottenham & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@6.00

Tottenham have the edge on quality and attacking depth here and should lead by full time. Brentford can find the net with their set pieces, so I expect BTTS and Spurs for the win here.
20:00 Sunderland v Man City
Man City
50 WIN
@1.53
Open
0
City should be in a confident, front-foot mood here. Their control of possession and ability to create waves of chances usually suffocates teams like Sunderland. Sunderland can show fight, particularly early on, but City's squad depth, composure, and clinical finishing will come through as the game wears on.

Manchester City usually control games through lots of possession. Even if Sunderland defend deep, City’s sustained pressure, depth of attacks, and the ability to score multiple goals on their own make over 2.5 the more realistic chance here, I reckon.
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.83

Sunderland are resilient at home and can find the net against top sides. Man City’s attacking quality is relentless, so even if Sunderland score first, City will respond. I expect goals from both sides here.
Man City & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@3.10
Open

This is my value play here. Man City’s firepower should see them take control, but Sunderland at home and their counterattacks could yield a goal or two. I expect early City dominance with Sunderland replying at some point today.
18:30 Beitar Jerusalem v Hapoel Tel Aviv
Beitar Jerusalem
50 WIN
@1.90
Win
45
Beitar Jerusalem look the stronger option at home, bringing sharper attacking and better recent scoring. Hapoel Tel Aviv can compete, but Beitar’s energy and greater goals scored should give them a clear edge to secure the win.
17:30 Crystal Palace v Fulham
Draw
50 WIN
@3.50
Win

This one looks nicely balanced. Palace are solid at home and usually competitive, while Fulham are organized and hard to break down when away. Neither side stands out strongly enough to fully dominate, so I feel a draw is the most likely.

This derby looks set to be very tight and tactical. Both sides are well organised defensively and prioritise structure over risking it all in these matchups. Palace tend to be controlled at home, while Fulham are comfortable slowing games down. Chances may come, but sustained end-to-end pressure feels unlikely here, so a narrow scoreline or a 1-1 type of game, I think.
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.80
Win

Both teams are likely to score here. Palace are solid at home but are prone to conceding on counter-attacks. Fulham have some decent scorers and are good at counter attacks and tend to find the net even when they are away. I expect goals at both ends today.
Crystal Palace & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@4.33

Crystal Palace should start strongly at home and will likely take the lead early. Fulham are capable of scoring on the counter, so both teams finding the net is very realistic today.
17:30 Liverpool v Leeds
Liverpool
50 WIN
@1.50

Liverpool should win. They have the quality edge and home advantage. They will be more reliable over 90 minutes. Leeds can compete, but Liverpool should dominate by full time.

Liverpool’s high-tempo style of attack at Anfield usually generates plenty of chances. Leeds are known for their open, attacking approach under pressure. I expect end-to-end play, with both sides likely to concede at least once. A 3-1 or 3-2 scoreline is realistic here.
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN

Liverpool should take control at Anfield. Their high pressing, attacking depth, and home advantage make them strong favourites here. Leeds can cause problems on the break, but Liverpool’s quality should stick even if they concede a goal.
Liverpool & Yes (Result + BTTS)

I think that the most likely outcome here is Liverpool to win and Leeds to score. Liverpool are strong at home, controlling games early, and Leeds may struggle to breach their defence more than once today.

Yellow Lemons is a filly who keeps showing up and occasionally flashes some ability without ever quite getting in front. She loves Newcastle and her best effort was a solid 2nd here over 6f in October off 45, beaten just 1 length. She's run well in the last four starts, including a good 4th, so she knows where the winning post is. Trip and conditions are ideal here, as she handles 6f perfectly on the AW, and cheekpieces keep her focused.

Novak is a horse who rarely runs a bad race here. This looks like another good spot where he can nick some place money if things fall right. He is a course specialist with 10 wins overall and is very much a “horses for courses” type, with multiple frequent placings over 6f to 7f around here.

Character Testing has ability but has been frustratingly patchy since his wind op. He’s now dropping back to 2m on potentially quicker ground, which could spark a revival from a very workable mark. He showed some solid early promise when winning a Class 4 handicap over 2m4f last winter off 95, and has placed off higher marks, so the chance is here today.

Wearelongterm is a decent stayer who can go well fresh but has been prone to jumping errors lately. This return to hurdles at Musselburgh after a break could suit if he gets his mojo back. Recent chase efforts were a good 2nd and 3rd, before the fall and poor run, but his hurdle mark looks workable to me. Back to hurdles should help, as he has a better record over timber, placed multiple times including here, and is dropping an extra 5 lb with Charlie Maggs on board.

Malystic is an old pro who absolutely loves these fast 2m chases. The engine is still there at his best form, and he can bounce back here. Not that long ago he was winning and placing in Class 2 handicaps off marks in the mid-140s, so this mark of 128 seriously underrates his peak ability, I reckon.

Western Sydney Wanderers

Western Sydney look primed to take control at home with their aggressive pressing and attacking. Macarthur have quality forwards, but the Wanderers’ ability to dominate key moments should see them claim a home win here.

Loro White is an unraced 4yo filly making her Rules debut. Olly Murphy's bumper strike rate at Uttoxeter is 23%, and Sean Bowen is also 23% here.

Cafe Con Leche is a old pro who can outrun his price if things drop right. A repeat of his Cork win two starts back would put him in the mix. He showed me plenty of fighting spirit to get up right on the line in a competitive 2m4f handicap, landing the race by a nose off a 6 lb lower mark. That proves he’s still got a winning attitude, so fingers crossed today.

Jolie Baie is a consistent mare who has come back from wind surgery with two decent efforts. She ticks enough boxes to be an each-way shout here after a solid effort when running a cracking third over 2m7f on heavy ground three weeks back, beaten 13 lengths in a Class 4, but she ran like she'd love this step up to 3m1f.

Sophie Power is a progressive 4-yo who has found her level in this sort of race and looks a fair each-way bet here. She did well to get her head in front at Leicester and comes here with the right conditions, trip, and jockey all in her favour again. Recent win in this grade, she took a Class 5 handicap hurdle at Leicester over a similar trip off 95, to win by a nose. That shows she battles on well and that this mark of 98 is not out of reach today.

Koenigsstern bounced back with a solid third at Fontwell after a layoff, showing he's still got his mojo for the chase game at this level. He made an eye-catching return when third over 2m3f off 103, battling on gamely late, and he has placed on this left-handed track before.

Happy And Fine is a seasoned chaser with a strong record, and he's got the class to place if he turns up on a going day. He is a proven heavy-ground specialist, a dual chase winner last winter over 2m5f, and the cheekpieces have a 26% strike rate. He has also won off higher than 119 before and placed multiple times at this level, so the top weight isn't a bad thing in this small field if he jumps cleanly today.

Captain Kinsella was talented and has strong 5f AW form from last winter, with two wins and a close third off higher marks. But since wind surgery he’s been a bit meh. So why am I positive? Well, he has proven 5f AW ability, being a dual winner on the sand and a solid third off the 79 mark at Southwell earlier in the year. There is definitely a well-handicapped horse lurking off 61 here with the first-time visor fitted. If it helps him settle, he should track the pace rather than keep fighting Keenan and he can travel a lot better into the race this time round. Also, trainer Gallagher has a very healthy level-stakes profit when sending just one runner to a flat meeting, which tells me this isn’t a “chuck him in and see” job today.

Love Your Work still looks a solid win or place here and is very much still in the game despite the 4 lb rise. He’s a Wolverhampton specialist with 2 wins from 3 over this C&D and 2 from 5 at the track, including a short-head success here eight days ago off 68, where he rallied extremely well late. Still well treated on old form (has scored from higher marks on AW) and is thriving for Darryll Holland, who has the yard in good nick and regularly targets these 8 to 9 f Class 5s.

Unexpected Girl has been plugging away consistently this year, and that recent 8th at Pornichet over 2400m shows she's still grinding it out in decent company, which is a positive sign she handles a good test. This Shalaa filly with War Command's stamina should appreciate dropping back in trip today. Fresh off 11 days' rest, she's worth a small each-way at likely big odds, being as we are at SP right now. Fingers crossed for a better run this time round!

Reforme looks like an each-way in this handicap chase with solid form off 92, and that tongue-tie could be the key to unlocking more. A recent fourth shows he's still competitive, and his Fakenham victory two back proves he stays well at 3m. Gretton and Dunne team up well with a 25% strike rate together, and a first-time tongue-tie with an official rating of 109, but he is effective much lower and drops back to a mark he's placed off before.

Oliver Stammers has a good chance for him to bounce back, as the cheekpieces have been firing consistent efforts and his recent form has been franked.

Cooperation arrives with solid course credentials, including a prior placing here over the trip. However, recent poor efforts, like that well-beaten run, were a bit meh, whats going on here in my mind as this was not normal so a bounce back maybe around the corner here. This Mehmas gelding consistently places on the all-weather with the hood fitted and he is effective on any going, and his class record is solid here.

Stirrup Cup should be a reliable each-way in this sprint with proven course-and-distance form, including a solid third here recently, beaten just 2 lengths off 1 lb higher. This gelding thrives at 5 to 6f on the all-weather, with prior CD placings. The tongue strap and blinkers keep giving him consistent places also. A mark of 70 is fair off his steady place and win efforts, and his recent Southwell and Hamilton form confirms he still retains the ability in this class.

Rightsotom brings solid recent chase form after a staying-on fourth, beaten 4 lengths LTO, where he battled gamely up front before fading late. This Maxios gelding is effective around 2½ miles with prior wins on this going. His recent Doncaster effort ran to his mark of 128, and Tizzard does target these races. Tongue strap and cheekpieces retained today. So with his consistent profile, and handicap placings off higher marks, this shouts competitiveness in a very open race.

Percy Willis stands out as a course-and-distance specialist with three prior wins here over the trip and a solid recent fourth, beaten 4 lengths at Southwell, off only a 1 lb higher. From the Sir Percy pedigree, this gelding thrives on the all-weather and he loves the 10 to 12f range, where he's placed consistently. Hollie Doyle is booked with an 18% strike at this track, and Jedd O'Keeffe targets these races, so the mark of 62 is very fair here.

He is an Ultra gelding and is progressive, with a Cork novice win and two solid Punchestown efforts (4th and 8th) confirming his stamina for 2½ miles. A 5 lb claimer from Niall Moore onboard offsets his bottom weight. He handles these conditions and can be competitive upped in grade today.

A bit of a wildcard here. Hillview is returning from a 2-year absence, with his last effort disappointing. So why am I backing him? Well, he does have some strengths. He is a proven stayer with a 3m win and multiple places at the distance on this surface. Plus he has a solid record in Class 3 (1 place from 3 runs) off marks around the 122, same as today. Joe Anderson claims 3 lb and the pedigree from Fruits Of Love often revives after long breaks. We do maybe have some upside here with small stakes and large odds.

Beckistine returns to Limerick, where he posted his career-best effort, and could revive from here if dropping back to this course sparks his mojo. This Jet Away gelding has shown me real promise in maidens so my upside angle is that his best run came here when second last time, looking set to beat Bowensonfire but just failed. As you may know, Bowensonfire is a good horse, so with King aboard and this class drop to novice hurdles, his mark of 112 is very doable here off prior form.

Blues Singer is a very interesting one here and looks a proper win/place player dropping out of Grade 2 company. He’s a danger, as he improved well on his bumper form when fourth in the Dovecote Novices’, staying on from the rear in a deep Grade 2. His bumper recor, one win and a Listed second at Ascot over 2m, already showed me that he has a smart engine at this trip. Newbury’s more galloping track should suit him better here.

Lagertha should step forward from that Stratford comeback. She is a useful bumper mare who bolted up in a 2m Chepstow novice, then was out of her depth in a Cheltenham Grade 2 before getting a quiet, fitness-building ride when fourth at Stratford last time. Now back in a Class 3 handicap off 113 on a stiffer track that will play to her strong-staying style over 2m, with Gavin Sheehan keeping the ride, and I reckon there is still upside off this mark.
