Friday, 7.45pm, Live on Sky Sports 1 ALTHOUGH Steve Bruce’s Hull were beaten 1-0 at struggling Wolves on Tuesday, Watford’s defeat at Millwall meant they actually inched towards the promised land. A win at home to rock-bottom City here will ensure only defeats in their last two games could deny them promotion. The Tigers have won 13 times at home […]

A POTENTIAL £500k jackpot at Cheltenham has necessitated a change of approach and today I am trying to plunder the loot. 2pm – Nicky Henderson appears to hold a strong hand in this opening contest, saddling Ma Filleule and the unexposed Springinherstep. While the latter is obviously open to plenty of improvement, it is Ma Filleule, an impressive Grade 2 […]

ANDY MURRAY’S comfortable victory over Edouard Roger-Vasselin was enough for a nice odds-against success with the Scot covering the minus 6.5 game handicap in a 6-16-4 victory. It was a good start to the claycourt swing for Murray but he may have to step it up today against Stan Wawrinka The real talking point yesterday came during the match that […]

CARL PETTERSON ran away with the title last year, winning by five shots without ever looking in danger. The Swede is not in quite the same form this time around but made the cut at Augusta and must be backed at an enormous price to beat esteemed playing partners Brandt Snedeker and Jim Furyk. It was this time last year […]

THE obvious starting point is with the winner of the English equivalent, namely Auroras Encore, who attempts to become only the second horse (Red Rum was the other in 1974) to win both races in the same year. Can he do it? I’m not so sure and that opinion is not formed purely on the back of various stats and […]

ALL the players love going to The O2 in Dublin because the atmosphere is so different to many of the other venues on the Premier League circuit. It’s an auditorium-style stadium that holds up to 12,000 people and between 7000 and 8000 people to be there on Thursday night. Here Rodney Trotter looks at the matches. A bit like Bournemouth […]

RESULTS were a bit Creepy on Tuesday with Milesey’s Outsider of the Day rewarding each-way backers at prices of around 19.0. Here are Milesey’s tips for Wednesday and his featured race is the 3.30 at Newmarket. NEWMARKET 3.30 Captain Ramius was better than ever in 2012, winning Ayr Gold Cup in September and 7f Doncaster minor event in October. Back […]

FULHAM shrugged of their last-gasp defeat at St James’ Park by getting a hard-fought point at Aston Villa on Saturday. That result means it’s now just one defeat in seven for Martin Jol’s side and they will be hopeful of extending that good record back on home soil. Craven Cottage has been a tough place to go in recent years […]

2.10 – It’s to be hoped today’s the day Puffin Billy proves these six rivals barely deserve to be on the same racecourse as him. Take away his last two starts, both of which are readily excusable, and he’d be nearer 1.3 for today’s race. The new trip of an extended two and a half miles won’t be a problem […]

LAZIO lay in wait for the winners of this Coppa Italia semi-final clash between Inter Milan and Roma tonight. Injury-ravaged Inter could struggle to create chances and with the goalscoring potential of Lamela, Totti and Destro, the Romans will be hopeful for a record 17th Coppa Italia final appearance Here is Milesey’s match preview. Inter (2) v Roma (1) (7.45) […]

TODAY at the Monte Carlo Country Club sees Andy Murray, Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic scheduled to make their tournament bows and the Scot has a comfortable-looking opener against Edouard Roger-Vasselin. The pair have met on one previous occasion, which was at the Australian Open last season when Murray was a comfortable winner, and it’s hard to see anything other […]

THIS will be the 45th staging of the RBC Heritage and this year, as it did in the years 1983-2010, immediately follows the US Masters. Venue: Harbour Town Golf Links, Hilton Head, South Carolina. Course Details: Par 71, 7101 yards. Hilton Head has been the event’s sole venue so there’s plenty of course form to go on. The fairways aren’t […]

I’LL put up my thoughts on Man City v Wigan, Fulham v Chelsea and West Ham v Man Utd later but here are Milesey’s predictions. Man City v Wigan It’s a cliche-ridden accident waiting to happen. Just count the amount of times you hear the words “dress rehearsal” in the coming days. But perhaps it is a good way to […]

IT’S that time of year when the form book tends to take a back seat to that lifeblood of early-season punting. Step forward, the power of gossip. Unfortunately, rumour tends to be the bookmakers’ friend more often than not. So as a general rule punters should bet with their eyes open and their ears closed. If it is possible to […]

FIRST staged in 1912, the Open de Espana is one of the oldest tournaments in the world and kicked off the brand new European Tour, way back in 1972. Venue: Parador de El Saler, Valencia, Spain. Course: Par 72, 6945 yards. Designed in 1968 by Javier Arana, Parador de El Saler was the venue for the Turespana Masters in 1996 […]

IT was a tough Tuesday for most punters and although there are fewer games to look at on Wednesday some big names in action. Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea, Inter Milan and Paris St Germain are all playing and will be the sides most punters focus on. There is an FA Cup Final rehearsal between Man City and Wigan and […]

Woking v Grimsby Town, Tuesday, 7.45pm WOKING won a nine-goal thriller against Macclesfield on Saturday as they enhanced their reputation as one of the Blue Sq Bet Premier’s most entertaining teams. Games involving Garry Hill’s side have averaged an incredible 3.41 goals per game, only a fraction second to struggling Southport’s on 3.42. That’s more than half a goal higher […]

WHEN you read my top tips you’ll see I’m on Bolton at a biggest 11-4 with bet365 away to Leicester – so I’m pleased Milesey agrees with my verdict. Bolton have won three in a row to edge into a play-off spot and on current form should finish fourth above Crystal Palace and Brighton. Leicester have gone off the boil […]

IT’S a big night for Cardiff and Partick Thistle with both teams needing a point to secure promotion to the top flights in England and Scotland respectively. I know Milesey’s laying Cardiff but I can see them clinching a place in the Premier League for the first time in fine style. The pressure’s off after last weekend’s superb 3-0 defeat […]

IT did seem only a matter of time before Arsenal clawed back a place in the top four. While Arsene Wenger’s men have quietly set about piecing back together a peviously dismal campaign, Spurs and Chelsea have both been at their charitable best. The Gunners are now a point ahead of both in third place, though Chelsea have a game […]

WHEN the snooker world gathers at The Crucible Theatre for the Betfair World Championship on Saturday there will be one particularly notable absentee. For the first time in over a quarter of a century, the event will take place without the most successful player in the sport’s history. The now retired seven-times champion Stephen Hendry will be sorely missed but […]

IT was one finish to the US Masters last night but what we learned for next year? Adam Scott, who went off at 30.0, ticked all the boxes both before the event and in-running. At 32 he was bang-on the right age to win his first Green Jacket. He’d made the cut in the previous year’s event, he’d come into […]

WATCHERS of this season’s Champions League would have familiarised themselves with the name Nordsjaelland for possibly the first time. Well, they are the current Danish champions, having arrested a three-year period of domination in edging tonight’s opponents FC Copenhagen to a maiden title last season. As it stands, the away side come into this game on course to prise the […]

WITH three straight losses and Deportivo managing three straight wins, Mallorca have plummeted to the bottom of La Liga, four points away from safety due to their inferior goal difference of minus 24. They were not helped by a 5-0 walloping at the Nou Camp last weekend and desperately need three points today. More concerning for is their home form. […]

LAZIO lie fifth in Serie A and face a less certain future. They one point behind Fiorentina and one point above Inter Milan but have had a poor 2013. They’ve won just just four out of the 13 matches they played and what depresses their fans is the fact they have lost six of these games. Lazio missed an excellent […]
