GOLF: ARNOLD PALMER INVITATIONAL TIPS

Posted on: 19 Mar 2014

VALSPAR was another high-scoring tournament last week but thankfully Luke Donald helped us out with a tied fourth. We’re still in Florida this week with the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill and tournament favourite Tiger Woods has pulled out with a back injury. It’s a par-72 course and with conditions being almost perfect and temperatures in the 80s it […]

MAR 17: ALBION ROVS v RANGERS TIPS

Posted on: 17 Mar 2014

ANYONE who endured the League Cup Final on Sunday afternoon will be tuning into Scottish football’s latest live offering hoping for some better fare. They could of course be disappointed as Albion Rovers adopt the Inverness CT “spoilers” role and try to deny Rangers a place in the Scottish cup semi-finals. Ally McCoist’s men were slated after scrambling a 1-1 […]

RACING: 29 HIT TOTEJACKPOT

Posted on: 16 Mar 2014

THERE were 29 winning tickets of the totejackpot at the weekend after Knock Beauty won in the last leg at Navan. The final jackpot pool was £1,942,112 which led to a winning dividend of £47,548.20. The totejackpot had not been landed in full since Sandown on March 7 where there were 6.5 winning units which produced a dividend of £28,634.90. […]

MAR 16: PREMIER LEAGUE BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 16 Mar 2014

THERE are two big games today and it’s possible away sides will come out top in both. Certainly Liverpool at Man United and Arsenal at Spurs were given plenty of encouragement to go and grab three vital points after Chelsea’s surprise defeat to Aston Villa. I don’t often agree with Robbie Savage but he’s right to suggest Liverpool should be […]

OVER 2.5 GOALS: WHAT’S YOUR SUNDAY NAP?

Posted on: 15 Mar 2014

I’VE asked for naps recently on Italian, Irish and non-league football and in general more winners than losers are put up. Over the past couple of weeks one of the most popular tips has been over 2.5 goals. I’ve had some success with singles, trebles and last weekend’s fourfolds. Greg and Alex do mostly over 2.5 singles for The Dane’s […]

MAR 16: SCOTTISH LEAGUE CUP FINAL TIPS

Posted on: 15 Mar 2014

ABERDEEN are being backed heavily to win the League Cup Final and are now 5-6 from 11-10 with most firms. The Dons tackle Inverness at Celtic Park (2.30pm) and I expect them to lift their first trophy in 19 years. I know anything can happen in finals but I can’t see past Aberdeen who come into the game in great […]

RACING: TOTESCOOP6 £1.25m JACKPOT

Posted on: 15 Mar 2014

A SINGLE winner of tomorrow’s totescoop6 could collect £1.25 million after both funds rolled over at Sandown last weekend. The win fund is expected to reach £250,000, while the bonus pot should hit the magic £1m mark. Saturday’s bet takes in four races from Uttoxeter’s Betfred Midland Grand National card, with the remaining two legs coming from Kempton. Totepool spokesman […]

MAR 15: BETWAY ENHANCED TOP TREBLE

Posted on: 14 Mar 2014

WOLVES have been a mainstay of the tips in recent weeks and I see no reason not to include them on this weekend’s treble. After a club-record 10 wins in a row they are no bigger than 4-11 to beat Shrewsbury at home but that’s fine for an accumulator. However, for those wanting a better price take Wolves -1 as […]

CHELTENHAM: BOOKIES JUST IN FRONT

Posted on: 14 Mar 2014

BETFRED say bookies have edged ahead in the annual battle between punters and bookmakers at the Cheltenham Festival. The bookies came into day three on the back foot after a disastrous Wednesday but got a result in the opener when Taquin De Seuil turned over the heavily-supported Felix Yonger. Fingal Bay quickly got punters back on track in the Pertemps […]

GOLF: VALSPAR CHAMPIONSHIP/HASSAN TROPHEE TIPS

Posted on: 12 Mar 2014

LAST week wasn’t so good with wind and water blowing away the chances of quite a few players. With only three players managing an under-par score at the WGC-Cadillac we should be grateful for a top-five finish thanks to Dustin Johnston. The PGA Tour now moves on to Innisbrook’s Copperhead Course for the next step in the Florida Swing – […]

CHELTENHAM: DOUBLE MONEY ON QUEVEGA

Posted on: 11 Mar 2014

JOHNB’S one of those tipping Quevega to win the OLBG Mares Hurdle and if it wins by over five lengths Betfred will double the odds. Quevega is the red-hot 4-6 favourite having won the previous five renewals of the Mares’ Hurdle by an average of 6.8 lengths. She is bidding to become the first horse in Festival history to win […]

CONFERENCE PREMIER: WHAT’S YOUR NAP

Posted on: 11 Mar 2014

THE nap experiment continues after a mainly successful night betting on Irish football. St Pat’s -2 was the most popular suggestion and that came up easily as they beat Ballinamallard 5-0. I picked three of the best-backed tips and of the other two Bohemians won but Glentoran lost 2-1 to Glenavon at home despite scoring first. Most of the comments […]

IRISH FOOTBALL: WHAT’S YOUR MONDAY NAP

Posted on: 10 Mar 2014

ON Sunday I tried a nap experiment on Italian football but haven’t had a chance yet to look at the results. However, I like the idea of focusing on country or league each day and asking for experts in that field to contribute. I know a little about Irish football but not enough and with 12 matches north and south […]

SERIE A: WHAT’S YOUR SUNDAY NAP?

Posted on: 08 Mar 2014

NAPS are all the rage. Whether it’s racing, football or even basketball everyone wants to have a nap. If I ever reinvent myself as a tipster I’m going to be called Mr Rip van Winkel. Anyone to get to the point I’ve decided it’s time to now and again focus specifically on one league and see if we can profit […]

CHELTENHAM: CHAMPION HURDLE PREVIEW

Posted on: 08 Mar 2014

JOHNB’S been looking at Tuesday’s Champion Hurdle and here’s his thoughts on why Our Conor looks a great bet at 25-1. That of course is to win by four lengths or more. Our man John says: “I think everyone will know by now how much I fancy this horse. I have heard on here he beat nothing last year in […]

RACING: TOTESCOOP £1MILLION BID

Posted on: 08 Mar 2014

THE totescoop6 could create its next millionaire on Saturday as last weekend’s winning punter sets his sights on the £878,564 bonus fund. The anonymous bonus hunter, a man in his 60s, staked £2 in a Coral betting shop and collected £411,959 after being the only person to pick all six winners in last Saturday’s Scoop6. He will take his haul […]

RACING: BETFRED’S FESTIVAL OPENING OFFER

Posted on: 07 Mar 2014

BETFRED will be paying four places on each-way bets in the Sky Bet Supreme Novices’ Hurdle from 8am on Saturday. They will be the first bookie to commit to an extra place on the Cheltenham Festival opener and are also non-runner, no-bet on the race. The Paul Nicholls-trained Irving heads the betting at 9-4 with Betfred, ahead of Vautour at […]

MAR 8: BETWAY ENHANCED TOP TREBLE

Posted on: 07 Mar 2014

IT’S tough when you scan a coupon and see five odds-on shots in the English leagues. It was the opposite last weekend when my biggest problem was whittling selections down to five. And I was super-confident about a 5-2 Top Treble of Leicester, Wolves and Orient. With home so hard to find I’m standing by joint League One leaders Wolves […]

RACING: BETFRED ADD £100k TO POOL

Posted on: 06 Mar 2014

BETFRED boss Fred Done is offering a £100,000 bonus to any Betfred shop, betfred.com or Betfred mobile customer who picks all six winners on Friday’s Scoop6. With a guaranteed win fund of £25,000 and more than £90,000 sitting in the bonus pool a single winner of the bet could potentially pocket more than £200,000. This week’s bet takes in four […]

GOLF: WGC-CADILLAC/PUERTO RICO OPEN TIPS

Posted on: 05 Mar 2014

FOR 16 holes last Sunday I thought I was on for three wins-in-a-row. Unfortunately Rory McIlroy had other ideas. I should be happy with three wins and two seconds in the past six weeks but must admit I am a bit disappointed he failed to finish it off. But at least we got an each-way. This week we can hopefully […]

BETFRED GOLD CUP: LATEST BETTING

Posted on: 04 Mar 2014

TRIOLO D’ALENE has been well backed for the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup and the sponsors have reacted by shortening him to 16-1 (from 20-1). Punters began nibbling away at the Hennessy winner last week ahead of Sunday’s surprise announcement the seven-year-old is being targeted at jump racing’s Blue Riband. Betfred spokesman Andrew Griffiths said: “Triolo d’Alene has been much the […]

MAR 2: CAPITAL ONE CUP FINAL TIPS

Posted on: 01 Mar 2014

IF games were won on stats they’d hand Gus Poyet the Capital One Cup before Sunday’s Wembley showpiece. Sunderland have lost just one in five meetings with Man City – edging three of them 1-0 – according to the oddschecker app. But as we know there are damned lies and statistics … and on this occasion I’m ignoring what’s gone […]

MAR 2: U.S. AND OTHER SPORTS

Posted on: 01 Mar 2014

I’VE got no idea what’s happening in the world of basketball and baseball although I didn’t notice any NBA games tonight. Anyway I thought I better put up a new thread before there are complaints. And remember it’s not just about hitting bases and throwing hoops, you can put up any sports tips or chat here including boxing – with […]

MAR 1: BETWAY ENHANCED TOP TREBLE

Posted on: 28 Feb 2014

PLENTY of homes stand out this weekened – the likes of Leicester, Reading, Orient, Rotherham, Wolves, Luton, Aberdeen, Brechin and Peterhead. None are big prices but all will feature heavily on many accumulators. After a decent run on the trebles I’ve decided to keep it straightforward and back three sides in flying high and in good form. So start with […]

FEB 28: HIBS v DUNDEE UTD BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 28 Feb 2014

DUNDEE UTD gave me a Super Single win last Friday as over 3.5 goals in their clash with Motherwell came up within an hour. United have followed a winless run of eight by notching three victories in a row and are a biggest 6-4 with William Hill to beat Hibs at Easter Road. It’s not an easy call because they […]
