The Master on Minded

Paul Nicholls has had some bad luck with his jockeys in recent times. Both Ruby Walsh and Noel Fehily are injured which has hindered his plans.  Who can Nicholls find to replace such talent, well as it happens he can only call on the best Jockey probably ever to live! Yes, the one and only AP McCoy will ply his trade on the undoubtedly brilliant Master Minded this Saturday at Cheltenham in the Tingle Creek. He won brilliantly last time out and looked the horse he was 2 years ago. he flopped last time at Cheltenham but seems to have a spring back in his step now. The odds are decent too 1.93 looks excellent considering what he is up against. I cannot see this getting beat and so will have a maximum bet of 10 points on this one with the one and only AP on board.

1st Bet: Cheltenham 1.55 Grp 1 Chase

Master Minded to WIN

10 Points @ 1.93

Boxing now and Amir Khan seems to be doing all he can to build back his reputation since being KO'd by Prescott under the guidance of Freddy Roach. He now fights in Las Vegas against a real puncher in Maidana. This is the biggest test he has faced since Bredis Prescott and will make or break his career in the states. Though not technically the best Maidana can hit hard something Khan will be very wary of. I believe Khan will be to quick and powerful in the end though and should win within the twelve rounds. Betfair give odds of 2.14 for this to happen and I will place a mid-large size bet of 7 points to win.

2nd Bet: Khan Vs Maidana

Khan to win by KO, TKO or tech Decision

7 points @ 2.14

In the multiple section of the blog I am going to go a little left field so to speak. I am going to use  the under/over 2.5 goals markets in 4 games. Using statistics from head to heads between the teams I can use this market to create a 4 fold with very good odds. Here is the bet I have placed

3rd Bet: Under/Over 2.5 Goals 4 fold

Fulham v Sunderland -Under 2.5

Newcastle v Liverpool-Over 2.5

Everton v Wigan- Over 2.5

Tottenham v Chelsea- Over 2.5 

3 Points @ 10.93

Hopefully these will pay for a very expensive night tonight!!
