Busy busy busy in the World of racing, and the first thing I need to do is congratulate Silvestre De Sousa for his new job with Godolphin which was announced yesterday, dampening the other rumours that he would replace Richard Hills who is about to retire from his job with Hamdan Al Maktoum – musical saddles in the world of jockeys then. My good friend Gareth Owen is Silvestre’s agent, and has certainly helped to oversee his rise to the top of the jockey tree and deserves all the plaudits we can throw at him, and we can but hope…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-thursday-23-february-huntingdon-and-lingfield/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/morecambe-to-craw-ley-back-home/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/morecambe-to-craw-ley-back-home/#comments Wed, 22 Feb 2012 09:32:12 +0000 Phil Heald http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8547

Crawley Town took league Two by storm and were flying high in their first season in league football, but have slipped down out of the promotion places and now find themselves needing a victory over Morecambe tonight to get within a point of 3rd place Southend. Steve Evan’s men have blown opponents away this season with some quality attacking football but need to step it up again, if it is to be a season to remember for the Red Devils. Just 2 wins in 8 isn’t promotion form, but now the distraction of the FA Cup is over, I feel…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/morecambe-to-craw-ley-back-home/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-wednesday-22-february-lingfield-and-doncaster/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-wednesday-22-february-lingfield-and-doncaster/#comments Tue, 21 Feb 2012 21:41:42 +0000 Sean http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8545

Yet another winner for us yesterday (the bubble has to burst some time but please, not just yet eh?), and a long drive down to the David Pipe yard yesterday to talk to the trainer about his Cheltenham Festival, but then why would I give that information way so cheaply when I can save it for nearer the day and save myself a whole heap of work lol? I will tell you, but on a drip fed basis because that way you keep reading – and I keep my job, which seems like a good deal for both of us!…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-wednesday-22-february-lingfield-and-doncaster/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/tuesday-21st-february-well-related/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/tuesday-21st-february-well-related/#comments Tue, 21 Feb 2012 09:40:10 +0000 Neil Coster http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8534

According To Pete shown winning the Peter Marsh at Haydock recently has developed in to a very useful chaser for trainer Malcom Jefferson. The trainer will be hoping that The Magic Bishop, According To Pete’s younger half-brother, can build on his initial chase success at Hexham back in October. The Magic Bishop won a competitive race that day and the form looked good with the second and third both running well in future races.  Jefferson’s horse then somewhat let the form down in subsequent runs and certainly didn’t look himself when well beaten last time out at Fakenham in December. …]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/tuesday-21st-february-well-related/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/bursting-bubbles/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/bursting-bubbles/#comments Mon, 20 Feb 2012 15:23:21 +0000 Phil Heald http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8528

Massive game at Bloomfield Road sees 5th taking on 2nd as West Ham United travel to Blackpool. Both teams are in good form and instantly we see a draw as a good bet. Even though The Hammers have only one win in their last six away games, they remain in the promotion places and are still a big threat to anyone in the league. Big Sam has them playing some good football and a win against their promotion rivals would cement their position, bu it isn’t going to be easy. Ian Holloway has a way of getting the up most…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/bursting-bubbles/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/weekend-update/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/weekend-update/#comments Mon, 20 Feb 2012 08:56:14 +0000 Phil Heald http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8526

Well. If you followed the main tips, not a good weekend, but if you followed the weekend pointers then they outweigh any loss we incurred. If Torquay had obliged as predicted and had made it an 8th straight victory then we would have been raising our glasses on a 19.4 accumulator. as it is, 3 out of the 4 won with the best odds being 3.8 on Chesterfield’s heroics over Sheffield Wed. Cheltenham thumped Dagenham & Redbridge 5-0 and the overs came in on the Sheff Utd game. All in all we made a profit, but just think if  Torquay…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/weekend-update/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-monday-20-february-carlisle-and-wolverhampton/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-monday-20-february-carlisle-and-wolverhampton/#comments Sun, 19 Feb 2012 20:20:27 +0000 Sean http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8522

After a positive and very profitable weekend, the racing this afternoon is a little more mundane, so why don’t we start with the latest news from the United Arab Emirates? Top jockey Richard Hills, son of retired trainer Barry Hills, brother of current trainer Charlie Hills and twin brother of jockey Michael Hills, will hang up his boots at the end of Dubai World Cup night after many years riding as number one retained jockey for Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum for the last fifteen years.  Although not always popular with punters he was, in my opinion, best when dictating the…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-monday-20-february-carlisle-and-wolverhampton/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/sunday-19th-february-trainers-in-form/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/sunday-19th-february-trainers-in-form/#comments Sun, 19 Feb 2012 11:39:07 +0000 Neil Coster http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8512

Nicky Henderson continued his good run yesterday and I hope a few of you got on Riverside Theatre at 3.25, before the big gamble started. Elsewhere Neptune Collonges ran a great race for us but just found one too good in the Grand National Trial. However, probably the training fete of the day was Colin Tizzard, who after eight of his 15 runners had run must have been pulling what is left of his hair out!  Then from his last seven runners of the day, he proceeded to have five winners and two seconds, incredibly the seconds being in the…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/sunday-19th-february-trainers-in-form/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-saturday-18-february-ascot-and-haydock/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-saturday-18-february-ascot-and-haydock/#comments Sat, 18 Feb 2012 08:15:46 +0000 Sean http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8509

Cracking racing yesterday has left me all excited and even more wound up about the Cheltenham prospects of Sprinter Sacre whose praises I have been singing since his hurdling days but then I was told by Nicky Henderson they thought he would be even better over fences and that looks likely to prove the understatement of the decade after he broke the course record on good to soft ground, and quite frankly without even coming out of a hack canter. While others look for reasons to knock him or his form, I just love seeing something special and connections must…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/horse-racing-tips-saturday-18-february-ascot-and-haydock/feed/ 0 http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/weekend-pointers/ http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/weekend-pointers/#comments Fri, 17 Feb 2012 17:16:02 +0000 Phil Heald http://www.onebooker.com/en/?p=8505

looking at the fixtures this weekend, the top teams can consolidate their dominance in league 1 with the top teams taking on the weaker sides in the division, but just keep an eye on Chesterfield. They can put a spanner in the works of promotion hopefuls Sheffield Wednesday. Just 2 wins in 9 in all competitions isn’t promotion form from The Owls and with the Spirites on a decent run at the moment, John Sheridan’s men could upset the odds.. A tasty 3.8 is available at Bet Victor. Sheffield United should dispose of Preston North End at Bramall Lane. It’s…]]> http://www.onebooker.com/en/2012/02/weekend-pointers/feed/ 0
