Boxing Day Racing Results from Kempton & Wetherby

A simply stunning show from our Horse Racing tipster yesterday - yet it could have been even better but for Might Bite's crashing fall at the last with the race completely at his mercy. Still, there were three winners (6/4, 16/1 and 9/2) and a place (4/1) from just seven selections.

Kempton
1.30: Gold Present 2pts win at 7/2: unplaced SP 11/4
2.05: Might Bite 1pt ew at 8/1: Fell SP 11/2
2.40: Yanworth 2pts win at 6/4: WON, SP 5/4
3.15: Josses Hill 1pt win at 14/1: unplaced SP 8/1

Wetherby 
1.50: Blaklion 2pts ew at 4/1: 3rd SP 2/1
2.25: Agincourt Reef 1pt ew at 12/1: WON, SP 16/1
3.00: Hollywoodien 1pt ew at 9/2: WON, SP 4/1

Total stake = 15pts, Total Return = 38.23pts.

A £1 line trixie at Wetherby would have returned over £130.

NFL Week 16 Results

1pt NO Saints -3.0 (v TB Buccs) at 17/20: WON, FT 31-24
2pts Indy Colts +3.5 (v Raiders) at 10/11: FT 25-33
2pts Ravens +5.5 (v Steelers) at 1/1: WON, FT 27-31

Our NFL guru has maintained his 63% winning strike rate for two full seasons now - and with post season normally his strongest time of the year, there's plenty of reason for optimism heading in to Week 17.

Caspian Caviar Gold Cup

It's back to the home of NH racing this weekend and the feature race is the Caspian Caviar Gold Cup, many contested the BetVictor Gold Cup here in November which provides a solid form line.

Village Vic (7/1)
Won the race last year off 136, much higher in weights now but  fancied to make bold bid from the front.

Buywise (10/1)
Has threatened for long time to win a big one but always seems to run on to late when the winner has flown, solid EW chance but opposable for win.

Aso (9/1)
Arguably could have finished closer when 4th in the BetVictor Gold Cup, best form is on soft ground and unlikely to get that here, opposable unless rain arrives.

Bouvreuil (6/1)
Tricky ride who has high head carriage, well backed this week but others preferred.

Thomas Brown (10/1)
More unexposed than most, won well last time at Ascot and fancied to go well. Slight concern is that didn't run very well over course in March.

Conclusion: - This doesn't look quite as strong as the BetVictor Gold Cup in November, where Village Vic lead everywhere but the line. Although vunerable to a better handicapped unexposed rival, he will make a bold bid from the front and give you solid run for your money.
