JUN 5: FRENCH OPEN TIPS

Posted on: 05 Jun 2013

Nadal didn’t have a great first week. The stats show it was his worst at Paris in terms of percentage of points won in any of the last eight years, and maybe that’s why he is still odds against at 2.04 to be the tournament winner and retain the trophy he’s made his own. But it wasn’t bad either, certainly […]

JUN 5: MILESEY’S TOP TIPS

Posted on: 05 Jun 2013

Uruguay v France 20:00 Despite boasting a squad peppered with players plying their trades in Europe’s best leagues, Liverpool’s Luis Suarez among them, La Celeste have been busy writing themselves out of qualifying contention for next year’s World Cup in neighbouring Brazil. Uruguay are enveloped in a cloud at present, only winning twice in their last 13 outings across the […]

DARTS: UK OPEN TIPS

In winning his 16th world title in January Phil Taylor reaffirmed his place at the forefront of what has become his sport. The top dog, the man to beat, the ayatollah of rock and rolla. It’s the only position that Taylor knows. Six months on and he’s having to come to terms with being number two. While The Power’s triumph […]

UNDER 21s EURO CHAMPIONSHIP TIPS

Posted on: 04 Jun 2013

England have every reason to be bubbling with confidence ahead of this summer’s edition of the U21 Euro Championships in Israel. Not only do the Young Lions carry a formidable record from the last three editions of the biennial tournament – consisting of a semi-final and final appearance – their qualifying campaign was near flawless. Nine victories and just one […]

JAPAN V AUSTRALIA ( 11:30 K/O ) Japan are 4-1-1 so far in their World Cup Qualification Group, seven points ahead of Australia at 1-3-1. Those stats put Japan 1st in the Group and Australia third. It must be said the Aussies have one game in hand though. The teams played out a 1-1 draw in Australia. For me Japan […]

JUN 3: MILESEY’S BET OF THE DAY

Posted on: 03 Jun 2013

ESTONIA V BELARUS Estonia have no WC-qualifiers this month so they have selected their best squad for this fixture against Belarus. They’ll however have to do without Klavan (Defender) here. Estonia, although not one of the best nations in football are one of those sides that can give second or third tier teams like Belarus problems unless they have top […]

Monday sees the remaining fourth round matches taking place and I like Stan Wawrinka to continue Richard Gasquet’s appalling record in the fourth round of majors and poor record here at his home grand slam. Gasquet has failed to make it past this stage in his last 18 straight majors since his appearance in the Wimbledon semis in 2007 and […]

MAY 31: FRENCH CUP FINAL TIPS

Posted on: 31 May 2013

Bordeaux v Evian, Friday, 8pm IT’S time for the last game of this French season, with the Coupe de France final. It is an unexpected final between a former big club who is on the wane and a team who has been fighting for its Ligue 1 life pretty much all season. Evian reached the Final after beating huge favourites […]

Belgium Under-20 v Portugal U-20 (Toulon Tournament) BELGIUM go into the game downhearted after kicking off with a narrow defeat to powerhouses Brazil. In a game of two halves they more than matched the Brazilians for 40 minutes but were clear second best for the remainder of the game. Belgium U-20s are a big and powerful side but do possess […]

WATERWAY RUN has arguably failed to build upon her Group 3 win in the 7f Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket last September in three subsequent starts. But this represents an easier assignment than Group 1 starts in the Breeders Cup and a creditable 6th of 20 in the French 1000 Guineas last time. She is worth chancing at odds […]

GOLF: NORDEA MASTERS TIPS

Posted on: 29 May 2013

I’VE had Bernd Wiesberger in mind for this tournament for a long time as he has just the right game for the venue. The 2012 Ballantine’s champion started the year sluggishly but following a fifth-placed finish in Morocco, with a respectable defence in Korea (31st) and a win in Indonesia, where he ranked first for driving distance and greens hit […]

TUESDAY was a much better day as the winning bets accumulated in between the rain showers at a soggy Roland Garros. Dmitry Tursunov got the day off to a fine start by not only taking a set from Alex Dolgopolov but defeating the Ukrainian in straight sets. I said yesterday1.26 was a shocking price on Dolgo and so it proved […]

WHAT will it take to win the Memorial Tournament? Without doubt the key stat is Driving Accuracy. Although the fairways are fairly generous missing them spells disaster and at a ranking of 17th last year, Tiger Woods was the first winner in eight years to rank outside the top 10 for fairways hit. This is again one of those weeks […]

THE rain is set to fall at Roland Garros on Tuesday but we’re hopeful of some play.

First, Rafa Nadal dropped the opening set of his tournament and almost the second to Daniel Brands – a […]
