Classy Jimmy Walker seized his chance at US PGA and has an old-fashioned swing built to last

August 1, 2016

Jimmy Walker, chasing his first Major title at the age of 37, could quite easily have been affected by having to play his last 36 holes of the of the US PGA Championship in one day on Sunday.

Revealed: How West Ham owners are free to cash in on Olympic Stadium deal

July 31, 2016

West Ham United’s complex deal for the Olympic Stadium, the full details of which are laid bare for the first time today, could make the football club’s wealthy owners even richer than previously thought – at the expense of the taxpayer. As the Hammers prepare to play their first match at the largely public-funded £700m [...]
Jamie Vardy: Snubbing Arsenal move was easy and Riyad Mahrez should do the same

July 31, 2016

Leicester and England striker Jamie Vardy has revealed he had no difficulty turning down a summer transfer to Arsenal and has urged team-mate Riyad Mahrez to do the same. Vardy opted to sign a new contract with the Premier League champions rather than move to north London after the Gunners activated a release clause in his [...]
Goodwood betting: Dancing Star all set to give punters a magical memory

July 28, 2016

Just a quick glance at Saturday's Qatar Stewards’ Cup (3.45pm) field is enough to understand why many compare it to a cavalry charge. With 28 going to post, the six furlong handicap is one of the highlights of the final day and I fancy DANCING STAR to continue her unbelievable progress this season. Andrew Balding’s [...]
Goodwood betting: Mamillius looks ready to strike for in-form Baker

July 28, 2016

Minding is the star of the show at Goodwood on Saturday in the Qatar Nassau Stakes (3.10pm). She’s in a different league to her rivals and it’s completely understandable that she’s 2/7 with Coral. We’re not going to get rich backing her at that price, though. The race I’m most interested in on the undercard is [...]
Goodwood betting: Take emotion out of it and back Stoute’s Thikriyaat

July 28, 2016

Godolphin have had a resurgent year so far with a regular stream of Group race winners for their now wider range of trainers. However, at the start of the year, their big hope would have been Charlie Appleby’s Emotionless. The Shamardal colt was a hugely impressive winner of the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster last September [...]
Goodwood betting: Angel can fly in the King George Stakes

July 28, 2016

Watching back a replay of last year’s Qatar King George Stakes, it’s impossible not to be impressed by William Haggas’s Muthmir. The son of Invincible Spirit carried a penalty to victory that day and won with a little bit more in hand than the eventual winning margin of just a head implies. He lines up unpenalised [...]
Horse racing betting: Cross looks the intelligent play in Richmond Stakes

July 27, 2016

Coolmore have invested heavily in the stock of US sire War Front in recent years and it has certainly paid dividends, especially with their juveniles. On Tuesday, War Decree landed the Vintage Stakes, which followed up Roly Poly’s Cherry Hinton win at Newmarket earlier this month. The big race for two-year-olds on Thursday is the Group [...]
Horse racing betting: Charlton is on a Quest For More Goodwood winners

July 27, 2016

Racegoers will descend on the Sussex Downs in their droves for Ladies’ Day on Thursday – and they could all be on to a winner if they keep QUEST FOR MORE onside in the Goodwood Cup (3.10pm). Roger Charlton’s charge was a good second in this race 12 months ago and put in a great effort [...]
Goodwood betting: Cash in on The Cashel Man in Goodwood’s marathon

July 26, 2016

An abundance of stamina is required to successfully conquer Wednesday's 2m5f Goodwood Stakes (2.00pm) and, although he’s yet to be asked the question, I think THE CASHEL MAN will relish the trip. After blowing away the cobwebs at Ascot on his seasonal reappearance, David Simcock’s four-year-old ran well over two miles at York to finish [...]
