Naas preview: Cadmium can repeat last year’s success on Sunday
Horse Racing
Sunday’s card at Naas kicks off with the 2m Grade 3 WhatOddsPaddy Chase (14:10). Cadmium landed the spoils 12 months ago so, now down in trip and grade, can repeat the dose. Trained by Willie Mullins, this eight-year-old has won six of his 16 outings over fences. After bolting up in a Grade B handicap at the 2018 Punchestown Festival, Cadmium scored further success in the Buck House N...

Horse Racing
Powerful owners Gigginstown House Stud have had the second in each of the last three renewals of the 3m 1f Grade 3 Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse. Last year’s runner-up Alpha Des Obeaux represents them on Saturday (16:02) and has race terms in his favour. Trained by Gordon Ellliott, this 10-year-old has run a string of fine races in defeat since landing the Listed 2m 6f Boomerang Chase a...

Rugby
We have reached the middle weekend of the Six Nations championship, and at this stage there are two teams with 100% records, another two who’ve won and lost a match each, and two who are yet to get off the mark win-wise. It’s a weekend with potentially huge implications for the destination of the trophy, and where we’ll find out a little more about each of the top four teams. Are France as ...
Read moreBet of the Day: Fulham and Derby to play out exciting draw in Championship
Bet of the day
At the start of the season, any straw poll for the teams winning promotion from the Championship would have seen a lot of action for the two sides contesting tonight’s match. Now, as we enter the closing stretch with just over a quarter of the season to go, they’re both still in the mix - but with varying levels of realism as to their chances. Hosts Derby sit in 13th place and are nine poin...
Read moreWinter Derby preview: Dubai Warrior worth a wager at Lingfield
Horse Racing
Trainer John Gosden and Frankie Dettori won the 1m 2f Group 3 Winter Derby last year with Wissahickon, so could repeat with Dubai Warrior in the feature all-weather contest at Lingfield on Saturday (15:15). This four-year-old Dansili colt is four from five on an artificial surface and landed on the trials for this race last time out. Greater experience in this sphere may give him an e...

Horse Racing
Having fallen in the weights, Adrien Du Pont looks the one to be on in the 3m Grade 3 Betway Handicap Chase at Kempton on Saturday (15:35). This eight-year-old, who hails from the in-form yard of Paul Nicholls, has won once and been placed once in two starts over this course and distance. In the last of those successes back in December 2018, the Johnny De La Hey owned gelding came fro...
Read moreEider Chase preview: Calipso Collonges the Newcastle choice
Horse Racing
The feature race at Newcastle on Saturday is the Eider Chase, a Grand National trial and historic handicap run over a stamina sapping 4m 1f (14:45). Calipso Collonges ran very well when runner-up last time out, so looks worth a punt at 7/1 with Betway to go one better and land the spoils. That came in the Tommy Whittle Chase at Haydock where the Olly Murphy trained eight-year-old stay...
Read moreWhere could Adam Lallana go next after Liverpool?
Football
Plenty of Adam Lallana next club speculation has begun following the announcement that he will leave runaway Premier League leaders Liverpool at the end of the season. He has spent six years at Anfield which are all but certain to culminate in a title winner’s medal. Lallana has been unlucky with injuries in recent times and found it hard to get back into the Reds midfield which has d...
Read moreKempton preview: Reserve Tank taken to gun down Pendil rivals
Horse Racing
Reserve Tank failed to live up to expectations when runner-up last time out but, now dropped back in trip following a break, looks worth siding with to resume winning ways in the 2m 4f Grade 2 Pendil Novices' Chase at Kempton on Saturday (13:15). This Colin Tizzard trained six-year-old has won five of his nine starts under Rules and developed into a top class hurdler last season when win...
Read moreBet of the Day: Front View fancied at Thurles
Bet of the day
Front View looks well worth a wager to take the step up in trip and into Grade 3 company in the extended 2m 4f novice hurdle at Thurles this Thursday (15:25). One of three in the race for trainer Joseph O’Brien, this five-year-old won the last of his bumper starts at the Punchestown Festival. He beat Jungle Junction by a length, and the runner-up has since come out and landed a Navan ...

Boxing
There’s nothing quite like a massive heavyweight title fight such as Wilder Fury 2. Their original encounter in the Staples Center in Las Angeles must surely go down in the annals of boxing as one of the most dramatic fights to ever take place inside the squared circle. Deontay Wilder knocked Tyson Fury down to the canvas twice, yet the Gypsy King got back up again to claim a memorabl...
Read moreBet of the Day: Shah An Shah each-way value at Doncaster
Horse Racing
Having posted an improved and eye-catching effort last time out, Shah An Shah looks decent each-way value in the 3m handicap hurdle at Doncaster on Wednesday (14:50). This Charlie Longsdon trained six-year-old is a lightly-raced and unexposed sort who has had just five outings under Rules. He shaped with promise his sole bumper start when a 9 1/4 lengths third to Montego Grey at Marke...
Read morePunchestown preview: Elfile appeals in Quevega Mares Hurdle
Horse Racing
The feature race at Punchestown on Wednesday is the 2m 4f Grade 3 Quevega Mares Hurdle (13:40). From a field of five, top weight Elfile appeals most. This six-year-old is trained by Willie Mullins and five from 11 under Rules. Elfile is a course and distance winner at Listed level on better ground, but proved she handled a softer surface when scoring on reappearance at Thurles. After ...

Bet of the day
Monday night’s Serie A action takes things to Milan, where Stefano Pioli’s home side need all three points if they are to keep up with the sides chasing Europa League football next season. The greater prize of the Champions League is, even at this comparatively early stage, probably a pipe dream - but the Rossoneri must be focusing on getting back into European competition after a season on...
