Published on 27/01/2012 10:34

Big Buck’s will be hard to beat in the World Hurdle – but Wikis point to a value bet...
Published on 26/01/2012 21:42
It’s almost inconceivable that Big Buck’s will be toppled when he goes to post for the Ladbrokes World Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival on March 13. At the time of writing, he is no bigger than around the 8-13 mark to win the race formerly known as the Stayers’ Hurdle for an unprecedented fourth time, and his odds will doubtless contract even further if he wins the Cleeve Hurdle, his intended prep run for the Festival on January 28.
From a value perspective, …

Superbowl XLVI – Patriots slight favourites over the Giants
Published on 24/01/2012 11:57
New York Giants will meet the New England Patriots in Superbowl XLVI after clinching a dramatic late victory against the San Francisco 49ers in overtime on Sunday evening.

Irish Independent Arkle - Cue Card best of the wiki positives
Published on 23/01/2012 23:57
The Irish Independent Arkle Trophy looks right up to standard this year with some really decent novice chasers set to line-up. Looking to the past trends for pointers; the winner is likely to be aged between five and eight, although given this is a top class novice chase, that is hardly surprising and one has to go back to 1988 to find a winner outside of this age bracket. The last ten winners all had no more than five races over fences coming into this; slightly more relevant…
