British and Irish Lions final test betting odds
June 30, 2009
The 3rd and final test of the British and Irish Lions tour of South Africa takes place on Saturday at Ellis Park, in Johannesburg. The Lions will be hoping for a win this weekend so that their tour against South Africa is not a complete whitewash, they was a great deal of controversy when they were beaten in the 2nd test last weekend and this will be the last chance for Ian Mcgeechan’s side to get a win in the test series.
The Lions had a great run up to the tour in their warm up matches and will be no doubt be disappointed in their test match outcomes, they will also be going into the game without Brian O’Driscoll after he suffered concussion in the 28-25 defeat in the second test, it is likely that New Zealand born Riki Flutey will make his debut as Driscoll’s replacement.

Odds on date of next General Election
June 29, 2009
Its been a tough time for Gordon Brown of late he has had ministers quitting left, right and centre and all thanks to the scandal of the expenses claims which was uncovered by the Daily Telegraph even though all of the political parties have been guilty of putting in claims for moats , massive televisions and duck islands!
However in the UK there is no fixed date like there is in the USA for a national election it has to be in the 4th or 5th year of term and the Government in power is the only force that can set a date for its hopeful re-election so generally they wait till public opinion is in their favour.

Irish Derby Odds
June 26, 2009
All eyes will be on the Curragh come Sunday afternoon when the first Colt in twenty years to win the 2,000 Guienas and Epsom Derby double, Sea the Stars, bids to add to his growing reputation by winning the Irish Derby. His trainer, John Oxx, cast doubt over whether he will run in the race after rain hit the Curragh on Thursday and Friday but is not going to make a decision til nearer the time, allowing the track time to dry out if the weather improves. Therefore, anybody looking to back Sea the Stars is probably best waiting until he is confirmed on Sunday morning, thus ensuring a refund if he doesn’t run. However, the 11/10 currently available with Boylesports may be long gone by then if he does run.
If Sea the Stars does run then it has to be taken that he will win, the decisive manner in which he won the English equivelent was enough to suggest that he is some way ahead of his d rival three year olds. Fame and Glory, who finished runner up at Epsom is a best price 11/4 with Coral to turn the tables and should Sea the Stars not get the runner, that would look a cracking price if you are happy to take that risk early, with none of the other runners looking liek serious dangers.

Northumberland Plate Betting
June 24, 2009
Judgethemoment is heads the betting for Saturday’s Northumberland Plate following last week’s win in the Ascot Stakes at Royal Ascot. The Jane Chapple-Hyam trained runner won the 2 mile 4 four handicap on Day One of the Royal meeting in impressive fashion but must shoulder a 5lb penalty for that victory when he lines up at Newcastle Racecourse’s feature race of the flat season on Saturday. He is clearly a horse on the upgrade having landed a hat trick of wins from his three starts so far this season and is 8/1 in the bookmakers odds to make it four on the bounce when he drops to the two mile test that the Northumberland plate presents, but that won’t be a problem at all, thus he is a leading contender providing the extra weight doesn’t take its toll.

It looks set to be an ultra competitve race, with several of the runners in the betting holding strong claims. Lasy tear’s winner wasArc Bleu from the Tony Martin yard in Ireland and it is another Irish Raider in the form of Jessica Harrington’s Speed Ticket who catches the eye. Very lightly raced for five years of age, this horse has shown signs that he has room for plenty of improvement and could be a big danger.
Wimbledon Odds is a two horse Race Between Federer and Murray
June 22, 2009
Wimbledon 2009 is under way and the bookmakers odds for the Mens singles title looks a two horse race between Roger Federer and Adny Murray after current champion Rafael Nadal had to pull out of the Championships due to injury.
It is Federer who is the clear favourite at odds of 8/11 with Ladbrokes to add a sixth Wimbledon title to his ever growing roll of honour, a win that would move him to just one champiosnhip win behind current Wimbledon record holder Pete Sampras.
However, if he is to continue re-writing the history books, he must over come a player who is also attempting to make history and become the first British player to win Wimbledon for the first time in 73 years! Andy Murray will be carrying the hopes of a nation on to the famous All England Lawn Tennis Club Courts over the next couple of weeks as he bids to emulate what Fred Perry last achieved in 1936. He is is the shorest odds that any British male player has ever been heading in to the tournament at 7/4 in the betting but must win his first Grand Slam if he is to do so.

Bookmakers are already reporting that British public are already queuing to back Murray to win Wimbledon and if the weight of the patriotic pound continues at the current rate, the odds about a Murray victory will contract every day until he hopefully takes to the Centre Court on Sunday July 5th for the final.

Wokingham Stakes Odds
June 19, 2009
The shortest priced runner in Saturday’s race (4:25 on BBC1) is 11/2 and that is the favourite, Jimmy Styles a Clive Cox trainer horse thought to be ahead of the handicapper and providing he can navigate his way through this large field, should have a big chance of justifying the shorest price tag . Another horse thought to be well in at the weights and on an upward curve for trainer William Haggas is High Standing who is bidding for a hat trick of wins this season and is the 7/1 second favourite.
Our tip for this race though is ZIDANE who has an excellent record at Ascot, never disgracing himself on his six runs at the course and has the experience of running in big fields. He ran ran at Royal Ascot last year in the Group One Golden Jubilee Stakes, this year opting for the easier option of handicap company. He has a 50% strike rate of making the places when running over six furlongs, making the 25/1 on offer at Paddy Power a cracking each way bet.
