LAST WEEK'S WINNING PICKS - NY GIANTS, SAN DIEGO & HOUSTON!

PATS 10/1 FOR SUPER BOWL
New England are 10/1 with bet365 after defeating Buffalo on Sunday, a win
which also puts them top of the AFC East (1/8 here at bet365). Pittsburgh
are now clear second favorites at 9/1 after their narrow 20-19 victory
over
Baltimore. Denver (12/1), Carolina (12/1) and the New York Giants (20/1
from 40/1) have all been clipped after advertising their chances at the
weekend.

Philadelphia are the big drifters in the outright market (12/1 from 8/1)
after being given a serious pasting by Denver. The Eagles are in serious
danger of becoming extinct in the NFC East too, as both the Giants and
the
Cowboys were victorious in Week 8. Philly have now lost two of its last
three games, with the defeats coming by a combined 51-points, and bet365
bettors have been quick to oppose them this week, with Sunday's
opponents,
Washington, now favored by 3.5 points (after starting as 1-point
underdogs). Other early Week 9 moves have seen Carolina well-supported
into
1.5-point favorites (from +1.0) against Tampa Bay.

HOME IN ON THE UNDERDOGS
For this week's picks, we're going to play the underdogs. Last week, we
cashed in with the Giants, who made a mockery of the 2.0-point line by
shutting out Washington 36-0. Their favorable schedule makes them almost
a
lock for the postseason, but they remain dicey on the road, and San
Francisco (coming off a surprise win over the Bucs) look worth chancing
getting a 10.5-point start.

Arizona can also be backed getting a 4-point start at home against
Seattle.
The Cardinals beat Seattle 25-17 at Sun Devil Stadium last season, and
their 2005 squad has the talent to win this game too. Seattle is just 1-2
on the road and have trouble stopping the run.

Jacksonville are a hard team to figure out. They run the ball, play solid
defence, and have a knack for pulling off close games. However, they seem
to play to the level of their competition, playing lethargically against
weaker teams. This week they play Houston, who are coming of a win
against
Cleveland (probably their only win of the season!), and the underdogs are
interesting getting a massive 13-point start.

A couple of underdogs I won't be backing this week are the Vikings (a
dreadful 2-5 ATS this season), and the Saints (beaten by Miami in their
first true home game last week). We'll be backing all our picks in
singles
(as serious bettors should), but it's hard to resist a speculative parlay
wager on all five, especially as you're assured of getting an extra 10%
bonus here at bet365. Each week, we pay out up to 50% more on successful
NFL & NCAAF parlays on the following 6 markets:-

Point Spread, Game Total, First Half Point Spread, Second Half Point

Week 9 Picks: San Francisco (+10.5); Houston (+13.0); Arizona (+4.0);
Detroit (-1.5) and Chicago (-3.0). All teams are currently priced at
10/11,
and a $50 parlay pays out $730.59 - which includes a bet365 bonus of 10%

LAST WEEK'S ATLANTA WINNER CARL EDWARDS GIVEN HERE AT 12/1!

JUNIOR DIALED IN AT 10/1 FOR TEXAS TUSSLE
Su Nov 6 - 3:00 pm (NBC)/20:00 GMT
As predicted, it was the Roush gang who dominated proceedings last week,
with victory going to pre-practice 12/1 shot (and top pick!), Carl
Edwards,
who was completing a sweep of the 2005 Cup races at Atlanta Motor
Speedway.
That win helped Edwards make up some ground in the Chase for the
championship, shaving 42 points off the deficit behind current points
leader Tony Stewart. His team mates Mark Martin, Matt Kenseth and Greg
Biffle finished third, fifth and seventh respectively, and the
Roush-driven
Fords will again be favorites to win this week.

In particular, Biffle will be very difficult to beat, and he's a worthy
bet365 favorite at 11/2. That still looks a fair price, considering the
way
he dominated the spring race here back in April, where he led for a
career-high 219 laps, despite having to switch to a backup car and start
from the rear of the field following a crash in practice! He can at least
be fancied to gain some ground on Stewart this week (currently 75 points
behind), whose best finish at Texas has been 5th in seven career starts,
including a very disappointing 31st place finish in the spring race this
year.

Of course, there's still plenty of incentive for drivers who aren't in
the
Chase to win (the 11th placed driver gets $1 million!), and I've got a
sneaky feeling this week for Dale Earnhardt Jr, at a tempting bet365
price
of 10/1. Junior dominated the early part of last week's race, leading for
a
race-high 142 laps, and will be bringing the exact same chassis to Texas.
The car was dialled in there and there is no reason to think that it
can't
win this week, or at least give us a great run for our money (bettors can
always hedge their pre-race bets via our live 'In-play Console.').

This week's Tour championship from East Lake, Atlanta, Georgia, is the
climax to the official US season, but for the bigger names on show, this
could be one tournament too many. No guessing who's favorite, but do you
really want to be backing Tiger at 13/5 considering his persistent
inaccuracy off the tee and the fact that he's not at his best on par-70
courses. He's not for me, and neither is Vijay Singh (can't putt for
toffee) or previous course winner Retief Goosen, who would have been the
pick but for some extremely shoddy play last week. So, with Woods'
immediate rivals unlikely to prosper, there has to a chance of an upset
this week.

Georgia native Charles Howell is worth a bet on his record in this event
alone. When he first qualified for this event in 2002, he battled Vijay
all
the way before finishing second, and followed that with another second
place finish in 2003. On both occasions, he held the lead going into the
weekend (which makes him an interesting bet at 14/1 to be 'First Round
Leader'), and he's been playing nicely this month too. Last week's 16th
spot was a good effort under pressure as it secured him his place in the
field, and the in-form home town player simply has to be backed at 33/1
(35/1 Enhanced Win Only Odds).

There would be more confidence in the second selection, Chad Campbell, if
the event was being played in his home state of Texas, the scene of his
2003 Tour Championship victory. However, last week's close call in the
Chrysler Championship bodes well for his chances here, and he'll see this
as an opportunity to close what has been a largely disappointing year by
his standards in style. The 25/1 (28/1 EWO) could look big come Sunday,
but
even then you're assured of getting on via our live 'In-Play Console.'

At much bigger odds this week, I also like the look of Sean O'Hair. The
23-year-old has had a fantastic rookie season on Tour, winning his first
title at the John Deere Classic in July. That win allowed him to play in
the Open at St Andrews, and by finishing 15th there, he showed that he
was
going to be a big-time player. Despite this success, he was still allowed
to go off at 100/1 for the Chrysler Championship last week, where he
almost
rewarded each way support by finishing tenth. In this week's limited
field
(only top-30 on Tour qualify), and with question marks over his better
fancied rivals, he looks a great each way bet at the bet365 standout
price
of 66/1 (1/4 odds 1.2.3.4)

LAST WEEK - MAIN PICK BORO WON AT 7/2!

CHELSEA ARE VALUE AT 5/4
Su Nov 6 - 4.00 pm ko (SS1)
It's a sign of the times that United find themselves at a top-priced 11/5
with bet365 for their home game against Chelsea on Sunday. That's the first
time United have been available at over treble-your-money odds to win a
Premiership match at Old Trafford, but not too surprising considering their
humbling loss to Boro last weekend (but no surprise to all the 'in the
game' readers who hopefully took my advice and lumped on at 7/2!).

At the Riverside, the weaknesses in the United side were displayed for all
to see, and they can take no comfort from their home form either. They've
won only once at home this season and, with the likes of Man City, Spurs
and Blackburn all nicking points in Manchester, the trip will hold no fears
for Chelsea. Chelsea have been guilty of some slack defending recently, but
Mourinho won't allow that to happen here, and the 5/4 on Chelsea is the
value bet of the match. Once the game goes live, don't forget to check out
our 14 Live In-play markets.

Live Game Pick: Chelsea @ 5/4

CITY 9/1 TO FINISH ABOVE THE REDS
Such is United's form this season, they now find themselves below
Manchester City in the standings, and we go 9/1 that City will finish above
the Reds at the end of the campaign (1/33 Man Utd). With the Citizens
looking vastly improved under Stuart Pearce, that price could have its
backers, while the 12/1 for Ferguson to be the first top-flight manager to
leave his club this term could also come under pressure depending on
results this week. He's also 5/1 not to be manager of United on the final
day of the season, with Martin O'Neill seen as the most likely replacement
at 7/4.

Chelsea can be the cornerstone of our Premiership acca this weekend, along
with Blackburn to beat Charlton at 13/10. The Addicks don't have don't have
a great record at Ewood Park (lost five of their last seven visits), and
could be without some key players. West Ham (5/6) should be too good for
West Brom, while Newcastle can be backed with confidence at 8/13 to beat
Birmingham. The Toon are unbeaten at home since the arrival of Michael
Owen, who is 7/2 to open the scoring on Saturday (money back if he scores
the last goal in the game instead!). A £25 acca on our four fancied teams
pays out £402.31 for a £25 stake, which includes a bet365 (up to 60%
available every weekend).

Suggested Premiership Acca:

LAST WEEK - FOUR WINNERS AT THE BREEDERS CUP METTING, INCLUDING SILVER
TRAIN AT 8/1!

FOLLOW THE STABLE IN FORM
At this time of the year, trainer form counts for more than anything, and
anyone following the stable of Heather Dalton recently would have been
quids in. The success of Model Son at Carlisle last Sunday was yet another
well-backed winner for the yard in the past couple of weeks and, judging by
the manner of his victory, he should be followed until beaten. His target
is likely to be the Feltham Chase at Sandown over Christmas, while the
impressive Aintree winner, Jorobaden, is another that should have a big
race in him. However, we don't have to wait that long to profit from the
trainer's fantastic form. Her Ronsard is very interesting back on the sand
at Wolverhampton on Saturday, now he's better handicapped than when first
coming over form Ireland (runs off 65 for this race, having been 81 at one
stage).

BACK CAPTAIN KIRK AT 8/1
After a slow start to the season, Sylvester Kirk also has his horses in
fine form, and he can take the flat season's final big race, the November
Handicap at Doncaster (3.35), with Group Captain. This one revelled in the
soft ground conditions when winning for the fourth time this year over
course and distance recently and, with ground conditions again likely to be
in his favour, he looks a decent 8/1 shot to win again. If he does, don't
forget to have you free bet on the next live Channel 4 race (3.45
Wincanton).

bet365 latest November Handicap prices . Ebtikaar 6/1, Gold Gun 7/1, Group
Captain 8/1, Crosspeace 9/1, Lets Roll, Spear Thistle 10/1, others on

Over the jumps at Wincanton, the best bet is Triumph Hurdle winner Penzance
in the Elite Hurdle (3.45). Alan King's hurdler looked a bit special when
beating Faasel (who went on to frank the form at Aintree) at Cheltenham
last season, and could go all the way to the top this season (16/1 for the
Champion Hurdle with bet365). Paul Nicholls rarely leaves this course empty
handed, and he should be on the mark with Red Devil Robert (3.15), who can
give the trainer his fifth win in seven renewals of this race. Both races
will be screened live on Channel 4, but don't worry if you can't get to the
TV, as you can watch your selections live here at bet365. Just bet £5 and

time United have been available at over treble-your-money odds to win a
Premiership match at Old Trafford, but not too surprising considering their
humbling loss to Boro last weekend (but no surprise to all the ‘in the
game’ readers who hopefully took my advice and lumped on at 7/2!).

At the Riverside, the weaknesses in the United side were displayed for all
to see, and they can take no comfort from their home form either. They’ve
won only once at home this season and, with the likes of Man City, Spurs
and Blackburn all nicking points in Manchester, the trip will hold no fears
for Chelsea. Chelsea have been guilty of some slack defending recently, but
Mourinho won’t allow that to happen here, and the 5/4 on Chelsea is the
value bet of the match. Once the game goes live, don’t forget to check out
our 14 Live In-play markets.

Live Game Pick: Chelsea @ 5/4

CITY 9/1 TO FINISH ABOVE THE REDS
Such is United’s form this season, they now find themselves below
Manchester City in the standings, and we go 9/1 that City will finish above
the Reds at the end of the campaign (1/33 Man Utd). With the Citizens
looking vastly improved under Stuart Pearce, that price could have its
backers, while the 12/1 for Ferguson to be the first top-flight manager to
leave his club this term could also come under pressure depending on
results this week. He’s also 5/1 not to be manager of United on the final
day of the season, with Martin O’Neill seen as the most likely replacement
at 7/4.

Chelsea can be the cornerstone of our Premiership acca this weekend, along
with Blackburn to beat Charlton at 13/10. The Addicks don’t have don’t have
a great record at Ewood Park (lost five of their last seven visits), and
could be without some key players. West Ham (5/6) should be too good for
West Brom, while Newcastle can be backed with confidence at 8/13 to beat
Birmingham. The Toon are unbeaten at home since the arrival of Michael
Owen, who is 7/2 to open the scoring on Saturday (money back if he scores
the last goal in the game instead!). A £25 acca on our four fancied teams
pays out £402.31 for a £25 stake, which includes a bet365 (up to 60%
available every weekend).

Suggested Premiership Acca:

Chelsea, Blackburn, Newcastle & West Ham – pays £402.31 (£25 stake)

HOWELL A HOME TOWN BET AT 33/1
Th Nov 3 - 17.00 BST (SS2)
Fr Nov 4 - 17.00 BST (SS2)
Sa Nov 5 - 17.00 BST (SS2)
Su Nov 6 - 17.00 BST (SS2)
This week’s Tour championship from East Lake, Atlanta, Georgia, is the
climax to the official US season, but for the bigger names on show, this
could be one tournament too many. No guessing who’s favourite, but do you
really want to be backing Tiger at 13/5 considering his persistent
inaccuracy off the tee and the fact that he’s not at his best on par-70
courses. He’s not for me, and neither is Vijay Singh (can’t putt for
toffee) or previous course winner Retief Goosen, who would have been the
pick but for some extremely shoddy play last week. So, with Woods’
immediate rivals unlikely to prosper, there has to a chance of an upset
this week.

Georgia native Charles Howell is worth a bet on his record in this event
alone. When he first qualified for this event in 2002, he battled Vijay all
the way before finishing second, and followed that with another second
place finish in 2003. On both occasions, he held the lead going into the
weekend (which makes him an interesting bet at 14/1 to be ‘First Round
Leader’), and he’s been playing nicely this month too. Last week’s 16th
spot was a good effort under pressure as it secured him his place in the
field, and the in-form home town player simply has to be backed at 33/1
(35/1 Enhanced Win Only Odds).

There would be more confidence in the second selection, Chad Campbell, if
the event was being played in his home state of Texas, the scene of his
2003 Tour Championship victory. However, last week’s close call in the
Chrysler Championship bodes well for his chances here, and he’ll see this
as an opportunity to close what has been a largely disappointing year by
his standards in style. The 25/1 (28/1 EWO) could look big come Sunday, but
even then you’re assured of getting on via our live ‘In-Play Console.’

At much bigger odds this week, I also like the look of Sean O’Hair. The
23-year-old has had a fantastic rookie season on Tour, winning his first
title at the John Deere Classic in July. That win allowed him to play in
the Open at St Andrews, and by finishing 15th there, he showed that he was
going to be a big-time player. Despite this success, he was still allowed
to go off at 100/1 for the Chrysler Championship last week, where he almost
rewarded each way support by finishing tenth. In this week’s limited field
(only top-30 on Tour qualify), and with question marks over his better
fancied rivals, he looks a great each way bet at the bet365 standout price
of 66/1 (1/4 odds 1.2.3.4)

Nigel’s Tour Championship Three Off The Tee: Chad Campbell @ 25/1; Charles
Howell @ 33/1; Sean O’Hair @ 66/1

LAST WEEK – FOUR WINNERS AT THE BREEDERS CUP METTING, INCLUDING SILVER
TRAIN AT 8/1!

FOLLOW THE STABLE IN FORM
At this time of the year, trainer form counts for more than anything, and
anyone following the stable of Heather Dalton recently would have been
quids in. The success of Model Son at Carlisle last Sunday was yet another
well-backed winner for the yard in the past couple of weeks and, judging by
the manner of his victory, he should be followed until beaten. His target
is likely to be the Feltham Chase at Sandown over Christmas, while the
impressive Aintree winner, Jorobaden, is another that should have a big
race in him. However, we don’t have to wait that long to profit from the
trainer’s fantastic form. Her Ronsard is very interesting back on the sand
at Wolverhampton on Saturday, now he’s better handicapped than when first
coming over form Ireland (runs off 65 for this race, having been 81 at one
stage).

BACK CAPTAIN KIRK AT 8/1
After a slow start to the season, Sylvester Kirk also has his horses in
fine form, and he can take the flat season’s final big race, the November
Handicap at Doncaster (3.35), with Group Captain. This one revelled in the
soft ground conditions when winning for the fourth time this year over
course and distance recently and, with ground conditions again likely to be
in his favour, he looks a decent 8/1 shot to win again. If he does, don’t
forget to have you free bet on the next live Channel 4 race (3.45
Wincanton).

bet365 latest November Handicap prices … Ebtikaar 6/1, Gold Gun 7/1, Group
Captain 8/1, Crosspeace 9/1, Lets Roll, Spear Thistle 10/1, others on
website

Over the jumps at Wincanton, the best bet is Triumph Hurdle winner Penzance
in the Elite Hurdle (3.45). Alan King’s hurdler looked a bit special when
beating Faasel (who went on to frank the form at Aintree) at Cheltenham
last season, and could go all the way to the top this season (16/1 for the
Champion Hurdle with bet365). Paul Nicholls rarely leaves this course empty
handed, and he should be on the mark with Red Devil Robert (3.15), who can
give the trainer his fifth win in seven renewals of this race. Both races
will be screened live on Channel 4, but don’t worry if you can’t get to the
TV, as you can watch your selections live here at bet365. Just bet £5 and

INDY 15/2 FOR A CLEAN SWEEP
Another week, another win for the Colts, who now head into their bye-week
with a satisfying 7-0 next to their name. The 2/1 Super Bowl favorites were
15/2 joint favorites at the outset, the same price that bet365 now make
them to go unbeaten throughout the season. They certainly can do no wrong
at the moment, but a glance at their schedule suggests that they’ve had an
easy time of it so far, with their seven victims to date combining for a
mere 14 wins in 44 appearances this season. The games do get a little
harder from now on, starting with their nemesis, the Patriots, on their
return a week on Monday. However, their tempting schedule does give them a
great chance of securing home advantage in the playoffs, and it wouldn’t
have escaped their backer’s notice either, that the Super Bowl will be
played in their favored indoor conditions in Detroit.

bet365’s Indianapolis regular-season record prices … 16-0 15/2, 15-1 7/4,
14-2 11/4, 13-3 9/2, 12-4 15/2, others on request.

WEEK 7 RECAP
The Colts are certainly the team that everyone wants to back this season,
although the many bet365 customers who bet them to cover the 14.5-point
spread would have been sweating when the Texans leveled the game at 14-14
in the second quarter. Indy were one of seven winning favorites who covered
the line in Week 7, with the best performance coming from Washington, whose
offence went crazy as they beat a hapless San Francisco by 22 points.
Luckless San Diego suffered their fourth narrow defeat in seven games (but
still covered), and are out to 25/1 in the outright market. Pittsburgh are
moving in the opposite direction (10/1 from 11/1), after a crucial road win
at divisional rivals Cincinnati (22/1 from 18/1), which also saw their odds
for the AFC North cut to 4/7 (from 5/4).

WEEK 8 - WASHINGTON REDSKINS @ NY GIANTS
Su Oct 30 – 1:00 pm EST/17:00 GMT
Last week we cashed in with Denver (+1.5) in their NY win, but don’t feel
as if the Redskins will offer as much of a challenge this week, so we’ll be
playing the Giants giving up a short number (-2.0). The importance of home
advantage should not be underestimated, and the G-men are 4-0 (3-1 ATS) in
front of their home fans this season. They also took the same fixture last
season, easily covering the number, and that trend will continue this week.
Since getting off to a 3-0 start, Washington has now lost two out of three,
and are allowing 22-points per game in the process.

Pick 1: NY Giants (-2.0) @ 10/11

WEEK 8 – ARIZONA CARDINALS @ DALLAS COWBOYS
Su Oct 30 – 1:00 pm EST/17:00 GMT
We’ve already seen plenty of interest in the Cowboys this week at an
opening line of 7.5 (now 9.5). That line may be slightly inflated now (fair
play to all the bet365 customers who got on early this week), but we can
still ‘get in the game’ by playing the ‘under’. Dallas is allowing just
12.3 points at home, and has held their last three opponents – Eagles,
Giants and Seahawks - to a combined 36 points. Those teams’ offences rank
first, fifth and 12th respectively, and the Cardinals offence isn’t nearly
as good. Their defense, however, can be respectable, and they look capable
of keeping the scoring low this week, especially as the Dallas offence has
some key injuries.

Pick 2: Arizona @ Dallas – Under 40.0 points @ 10/11

A $50 parlay on the above two games pays out $191.34 - which includes a
bet365 bonus of 5%

UP TO 50% MORE ON BET365 PARLAYS
Betting purists will say that you should be sticking to single bets, but
this is one way of getting rich cheaply, and there’s nothing wrong with a
speculative wager on the weekend’s games – plus you’re assured of getting
some extra value with our Football Parlay Bonus! Each week, we pay out up
to 50% more on successful NFL & NCAAF parlays on the following 6
markets:-

Point Spread, Game Total, First Half Point Spread, Second Half Point

This week’s suggested parlay is on the following teams:

• Cincinnati (-9.0) – are strongly fancied to bounce back against a poor
Packers side.
• San Diego (-6.0) – has a great chance to atone for some unlucky
defeats.
• Houston (-2.0) – will see this as their best chance to win a game all
season.
• Tennessee (+1.5) - need this game badly and will get it in a big way.

All teams are currently priced at 10/11, and a $50 parlay pays out $730.59
- which includes a bet365 bonus of 10%

*******
EDWARDS IN THE NICHE AT 12/1
Just five races to go in the chase for the championship, and the road show
moves on this week to the Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Bass Pro Shops /
MBNA 500 (live In-Play betting available). Even though Atlanta is
considered to be a cookie-cutter track (same degree of banking in the
corners as Charlotte and Texas), the set up is still fairly unique, and
certain drivers have found success easier to come by here than others. In
particular, the Roush gang, whose drivers must all be considered as
potential winners this week. Top of that list must be Greg Biffle (15/2),
closely followed by Matt Kenseth, Kurt Busch and Carl Edwards, and it’s the
latter that could be the value bet this week at 12/1.

In the spring Atlanta race, and in his first full season on the circuit,
Edwards waged a thrilling final-lap battle with Jimmie Johnson (5/1
favorite this week) before taking his first career checkered flag. Before
that, he’d posted his first series top-five in this event last year,
running third behind Johnson and Martin, so he’s obviously very much in the
niche on this track. Currently fifth in the standings (149 points behind
leader Tony Stewart), he’s also got the incentive of the chase, but don’t
be surprised to see Johnson chase him all the way again this week.

Nigel’s Checkered Flag: Carl Edwards @ 11/1

bet365 MNBA 500 prices … Jimmie Johnson 5/1, Tony Stewart 6/1, Greg Biffle
15/2, Kasey Kahne 9/1, Ryan Newman 10/1, Carl Edwards 11/1, others on
bet365 website.

************
TERMS ARE FAVOURABLE AT 16/1
Sa Oct 29
This Saturday’s Breeders Cup meeting from Belmont Park is the Super Bowl of
the racing world and, as you’d expect, offers us some excelling betting
opportunities. From a Europeans perspective, our best chance looks to be
Ouija Board (currently available at 15/8) in the ‘Filly & Mare Turf’ (7.35)
after bolting up in this race last year. However, that was on the back of a
career-best performance in the Arc, and she may be vulnerable this time,
having not shown nearly the same sort of form this season. We can still
take this prize home, however, via the British-trained Favourable Terms,
who is available at a very generous bet365 price of 16/1. Her trainer,
Michael Stoute, will be aware of what’s required to win this race having
saddled Islington to collect two years ago.

The Mile (8.45) has been one of the happier hunting grounds for the
Europeans, but our challenge doesn’t look as strong this year, and the home
side look to have it sewn up with Leroidesanimaux (6/5). However, if he ran
below form, the most likely winner would be another US-trained runner,
Artie Schiller (6/1), so it might be worth having a reverse exacta on him
with the favorite. We have a stronger hand in the Turf, where Azamour and
Bago head the market at 5/2 and 7/2 respectively, but preference is for
Shirocco at 5/1, providing he gets the soft ground he loves (v. likely). In
the sprint, Lost In The Fog (11/10) will be hard to beat, but it’s not
worth taking short prices in a race like this, and you can get better odds
by backing both Silver Train (8/1) and Lion Tamer (8/1) against him. In the
Classic (10.35), Rock Hard Ten looks something to bet on at our industry
best 7/2. His pari-mutual odds on the night are likely to be much lower, a
comment that applies to the majority of the fancied US-trained runners. In
the other races I like the look of the dirt-bred Ivan Denisovich (take
pari-mutual odds) in the Juvenile (6.55), and Folklore (take 5/2) in the
Juvenile Fillies (6.20).

Vijay Singh could be over-priced at 7/1 to land the Chrysler Championship,
the last full-field tournament of the official US Tour season. That looks
an over-reaction to his poor form of late, including a missed cut last
week, but Vijay could easily bounce back here and it has to be in his
favour that this week’s event will be less of a putting contest. However,
it’s been more profitable taking on the favourites recently, and last
week’s pick Geoff Ogilvy (tied 3rd, one shot off a playoff with shock 150/1
winner Lucas Glover) is worth persevering with at a bet365 standout price
of 33/1 (35/1 Enhanced Win Only). He was a frustrating selection last week,
as he was tied for the lead going into the last hole, but was forced to be
overly aggressive on his approach shot after Glover had holed out from a
bunker to birdie the last! That cost him a bogey, but it was still an
impressive performance and it did maintain his excellent record in Florida.
His record on this course isn’t bad either – 20th and 9th from two attempts
– so let’s hope for better luck this week!

Nigel’s Chrysler Championship Pick: Geoff Ogilvy @ 33/1 (Each-way ¼ odds
1.2.3.4.5.)

BORO LONGING TO BE BACKED AT 7/2
Sa Oct 29 - 5.15 pm ko (PremPlus)
Middlesbrough are never at team you'd want to have your house on, but the
temptation is so strong to oppose United right now that Steve McLaren's
side are worth an interest at 7/2 in Saturday's live encounter (ko 5.15,
Prem Plus). The Red Devils may have won four out of five away from home
but
these were against Everton, Newcastle, Fulham and Sunderland, while
Spurs,
Liverpool and Man City have all taken a point from them over the past few
weeks, and this will be a harder game for them than the odds suggest.

Boro are hardly reliable, but the key to punting them looks to be going
in
when the odds are long, and to oppose them when they're short and, as
they
showed against Arsenal, a hard game like this looks sure to bring out the
best of them. In our First Goalscorer market, prolific scorer Yakubu
looks
a fair bet at 8/1, especially considering our Goalscorer Cashback Offer
(money back if he scores the last goal in the game instead). Once the
game
goes live, don't forget to check out our 14 Live In-play markets.

Live Game Picks:

Middlesbrough @ 7/2
Yakabu to score first @ 8/1

YOU CAN EARN YOUR SPURS AT 9/5
Arsenal are another team worth taking on right now, and the 9/5 available
on their arch rivals Tottenham is hard to resist. That price is probably
based on past form more than anything else, as it's been 12 games since
Spurs beat their London rivals, and that 2-1 win was their only win in 20
attempts going back nearly ten years! However, Spurs are playing the
better
football this season and, with home advantage, they can nick this.

The rest of the weekend games look trappy, but Man City can be backed
with
confidence at 5/6 to beat Aston Villa on Monday night. Their only blip at
home in the league this season was a loss to Bolton, but that was down to
a
last minute goal, and the Citizens have been rock solid in front of their
fans. Finally, Sunderland have been playing well enough of late to
warrant
a bet at 5/4 to beat Portsmouth, who haven't been that impressive on the
road this season.

BACK GREY FOR A REPEAT AT 7/2
The jumpers take centre stage this weekend and the highlight is
undoubtedly
the bet365 Charlie Hall Chase from Wetherby (3.25). The race is building
up
into a cracking contest with several big names already confirmed as
definite runners, including last year's winner Grey Abbey who heads the
betting at 11/4 (opened 7/2). The eleven-year-old showed he can do well
fresh by taking this race last year before following up in the Pillar
Chase
at Cheltenham. That win saw him go off fancied for the Gold Cup in March,
and he wasn't disgraced in finishing 5th on ground that was probably too
lively for him. The recent rain will be very much in his favour, and he
looks the one to beat.

Of his rivals, there is a suspicion that Ollie Magern (4/1) would prefer
better ground, although his stable is in unstoppable form (seven winners
last weekend), while Kingscliff (3/1) is unlikely to run up to his best
on
his first run back this season. The race will be screened live on Channel
4, but don't worry if you can't get to the TV, as you can watch your
selections live here at bet365. Just bet £5 and click on the live stream
next to the race.

TERMS ARE FAVOURABLE AT 16/1
With massive fields in very soft ground likely at Newmarket on Saturday,
we
might be best looking for winners elsewhere, although anyone fortunate to
find a winner in any of the four televised races, at 4/1 or bigger, can
look forward to a free bet on the next live Channel 4 race. And the
evening's Breeders Cup meeting from Belmont Park offers us with some
excelling betting opportunities. British eyes will be on Ouija Board in
the
'Filly & Mare Turf' (7.35) after she bolted up in this race last year.
However, that was on the back of a career-best performance in the Arc,
and
she may be vulnerable this time, having not shown nearly the same sort of
form this season. Instead, we'll take a chance on Favourable Terms at a
generous bet365 price of 16/1. Her trainer, Michael Stoute, will be aware
of what's required to win this race having saddled Islington to collect
two
years ago.

The Mile (8.45) has been one of the happier hunting grounds for the
Europeans, but our challenge doesn't look as strong this year, and the
Yanks look to have it sewn up with Leroidesanimaux (Evens). However, if
he
ran below form, the most likely winner would be Artie Schiller (7/1), so
it
might be worth having a reverse exacta on him to run second to the
favourite. We have a stronger hand in the Turf, where Azamour and Bago
head
the market at 5/2 and 7/2 respectively, but preference is for Shirocco at
7/1, providing he gets the soft ground he loves. In the sprint, Lost In
The
Fog (11/10) will be hard to beat, but it's not worth taking short prices
in
a race like this, and you can get better odds by backing both Silver
Train
(10/1) and Lion Tamer (7/1) against him. In the Classic (10.35), Rock
Hard
Ten looks something to bet on at our industry best 7/2. His pari-mutual
odds on the night are likely to be much lower, a comment that applies to
the majority of the fancied US-trained runners. In the other races I like
the look of the dirt-bred Ivan Denisovich (take pari-mutual odds) in the

week, but Vijay could easily bounce back here and it has to be in his
favour that this week's event will be less of a putting contest. However,
it's been more profitable taking on the favourites recently, and last
week's pick Geoff Ogilvy (tied 3rd, one shot off a playoff with shock
150/1
winner Lucas Glover) is worth persevering with at a bet365 standout price
of 33/1 (35/1 Enhanced Win Only). He was a frustrating selection last
week,
as he was tied for the lead going into the last hole, but was forced to
be
overly aggressive on his approach shot after Glover had holed out from a
bunker to birdie the last! That cost him a bogey, but it was still an
impressive performance and it did maintain his excellent record in
Florida.
His record on this course isn't bad either - 20th and 9th from two
attempts
- so let's hope for better luck this week!

As a course winner, K J Choi also merits serious consideration this week
at
a tasty 33/1 (35/1 EWO), especially as he'll be chasing a top-30 spot on
the US Money list which would qualify him for next week's Tour
Championship. Currently in 37th place, K J will be hopeful of a big
finish
on a course that has rewarded his strong iron play in the past, and he'll
be fresher than most having skipped a potential money earner last week.

Chrysler Championship Picks: Geoff Ogilvy @ 33/1; K J Choi @ 33/1 (both @
35/1 Enhanced Win Only)

MONTY CAN BE MASTERS OF ALL AT 14/1
Th Oct 27 - 13.00 BST (SS1)
Fr Oct 28 - 13.30 BST (SS1)
Sa Oct 29 - 12.30 BST (SS3)
Su Oct 30 - 12.30 BST (SS3)
The final event of the European Tour takes place at Valderrama this week
and, given his excellent record on the course (two wins and two seconds),
it's hard to see Colin Montgomerie being out of the frame. A good finish
will also secure Monty another Order of Merit title, for which he's
currently priced at 1/16. His only rival for the No.1 spot, Michael
Campbell (7/1), is currently £106,000 behind but, with over £450,000 up
for
grabs, it's still all to play for. As Monty loves a head to head battle,
the situation with Campbell should bring out the best in him, and he
looks
a great bet at 14/1 (15/1 EWO). If Monty doesn't win, then David Howell
(14/1) would have as good a claim as anyone, including our 13/2 favourite
Sergio Garcia, whose suspect putting could find him out again this week.
Howell has emerged as a top-class player in 2005 and deserves a big win
to
round off the season. Seven top-6 finishes in his last 11 starts make for
impressive reading, and he showed he can play the course by finishing 5th
last year.

Volvo Masters Picks: Colin Montgomerie @ 33/1; David Howell @ 14/1 (both
@
35/1 Enhanced Win Only)

For a change this week, I would recommend that you take the Enhanced Win
Only prices on this week's selections, then combine them in four each way
doubles. All four look rock-solid each way picks and the place double
will
at least cover our stake, while two winners would be very nice indeed!

Get in the game and be lucky!

WEEK 6 RECAP
COLTS KEEP THE WINNING CONNECTION
Each week, the Colts get shorter and shorter in the betting for the title.
That's not surprising considering their perfect start to the season, and
the form of some of their rivals, although few would have predicted their
shocking start against the Rams last Monday night. The 14-point underdogs
raced into a 17-0 lead, until losing QB Marc Bulger to a sprained shoulder
in the second quarter, after which it all went wrong. By coming from
behind, we saw another side to the Colts, who were dealing with adversity
for the first time this season, but shrugged it off with 31 consecutive
points in the second half. The result means the Super Bowl market is
strikingly similar to how it looked at the outset, with the top four sides
unchanged after six weeks of action.

Overall, it was a good week for favorites with nine winning and covering
the handicap. Seattle (-8.5) were the best-backed team of the weekend, and
they didn't let their supporters down, cruising to a 42-10 win over
Houston, resulting in their odds being clipped into 20/1. Pittsburgh (12/1
from 11/1) are struggling to cope with their injury troubles, and were the
biggest casualties going down 23-17 to an improved showing by Buffalo, who
now find themselves challenging for the AFC East lead. Dallas were also
clipped in the betting after their overtime win over the Giants (although
they can still be backed at an industry-best 28/1 with bet365), and they're
starting to look like genuine contenders for the title.

WEEK 7 PICKS
DENVER BRONCOS @ NY GIANTS
Su Oct 23 - 4:15 pm EST/20:15 GMT
After scoring just 10 points in their opening game at Miami, the Broncos
have turned it around, and can extend their winning streak to six when they
visit the New York Giants on Sunday. They also started last season 5-1 only
to stumble down the stretch, but they might do better this year, thanks to
the improved play of their QB, Jake Plummer. Plummer threw for 262 yards
and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-20 victory over the Pats, and also
extended his streak without an interception to 17 games. Last week, the
Giants offence had its worst day of the season, committing five turnovers
and scoring their fewest points so far. They might struggle to get it going
again against a revamped Denver defensive line. We've got Denver listed as
1.5-point underdogs, with the total set at 47.

Pick 1: Denver (+1.5) @ 10/11

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS @ ST LOUIS RAMS
Su Oct 23 - 1:00 pm EST/17:00 GMT
The Saints have won their last three visits to the Edward Jones Dome, and
there are good reasons for thinking they can continue that run on Sunday.
Playing in their make-shift home in San Antonio last week, the Saints
forged a 31-31 tie with Atlanta in the fourth quarter and thought they were
heading for overtime, only to go down 34-31 to a last minute controversial
field goal. This was still a big improvement in form and, in particular, RB
Antowain Smith excelled against a tough Atlanta defense with an 880-yard,
two-touchdown performance. St Louis lost more than their third straight
game on Monday night to Indianapolis, with QB Marc Bulger expected to miss
the next three weeks at least, and that is bad news for the Rams. The
Saints are underdogs by a field goal, with the total at 47.

Pick 2: New Orleans (+3.0) @ 10/11

HOUSTON, NO PROBLEM - ASTROS TO WIN IN 7 @ 9/2
Sa Oct 22 - 7:30 pm EST (FOX)/23:30 GMT
On Saturday, the Chicago White Sox will host the Houston Astros for Game 1
in a best-of-seven World Series. This is Chicago's first appearance since
1959 and Houston's first . ever. In fact, both teams current ballparks have
had more names than pennant winners, with the latest being two of the worst
examples of corporate sponsorship in baseball - Minute Maid Park and US
Cellular Field!

Chicago, who hasn't won the title since 1917, is coming off the best
postseason performance by starting pitchers in nearly half a century, while
Houston became the first team since the 1914 Boston Braves to win a pennant
after falling 15 games under .500 during the regular season. Overall,
there's very little between the teams. As for a prediction we'll take the
Astros in Game 7 at 9/2 (+450), and take the under (7.0) in Game 1 at Evens
(+100). With two of the best rotations in the majors lining up, it's
conceivable that these teams combined could average no more than six or
seven runs per game. Once the game starts don't forget to check out our
live betting via our new 'In-Play Console'.

World Series Picks:

Astros to beat the White Sox @ 21/20 (+105)
Astros to win in Game 7 @ 9/2 (+450)

JOHNSON IN GOOD SHAPE AT 7/1
Su Oct 23 - 12:30 pm EST (NBC)/16:30 GMT
Only five races remain in the 'Chase for the Cup' and, with the standings
getting tighter, each race will feel like double points to the winner.
There's currently nothing between the top two drivers, Tony Stewart and
Jimmie Johnson, and both must be considered as likely winners this week's
Subway 500 at the half mile short track of Martinsville.

This week, Stewart is favorite to win at 9/2 (+450), with Johnson at 7/1
(+700). After threatening to run away from everyone in the chase, Stewart
came crashing back down last week (literally), to leave all ten drivers in
the chase within 142 points of the leader. As the victim of a tire failure
as the leader on lap 217, Stewart saw his 75-point lead evaporate to leave
him tied with Johnson atop the standings. After entering the chase on a
streak of 12 straight finishes of eight or better, he's posted two finishes
outside the top-15 in his last four races. You can look for a much better
run this week, but Johnson has experienced more success on the track in the
last four seasons, and is looking for his third win in five races. Entering
this race last year, Johnson was 227 points off the pace, but claimed his
second straight checkered flag, part of a furious late rally that brought
him to within eight points of eventual champion Kurt Busch. With momentum
again on his side this week, and the pressure very much on Stewart, Johnson
looks the one to be on this week.

Subway 500 Pick: Jimmie Johnson @ 7/1

In the States we've got another pro-am with the Funai Classic at the Walt
Disney resort in Florida. With scores again likely to be low on the
wide-open Magnolia resort course, there's a danger that we'll see another
long-priced winner like last week's 500/1 no-hoper Wes Short (7/4 before
the Playoff against Jim Furyk). However, for this year's event, the course
has been lengthened to make it one of the five longest on the Tour, which
should at least help to sort the men from the boys, and that makes our
price of 50/1 on Geoff Ogilvy even more tempting. This long straight driver
has already shown what it takes to play well here by finishing in the
top-10 for the last two years, and was in contention going into the final
round of last week's pro-am. Although he faltered to finish 16th, that was
just one of many high finishes on the Tour this year, including a fifth in
the Open and a sixth in the USPGA. As he's currently 37th on the Money
List, another good week could see him jump into the top-30, which ensures
qualification for the season-ending Tour Championship.

There are no such money worries for Tiger Woods who tees up this week not
far from his Orlando home, and in a State where he's won seven times
(average finish 7.4). However, he has been beaten in the last four
'Disneys' and, even at the Enhanced Win Only odds of 5/2, I would prefer to
be taking longer prices this week. And, they don't come much bigger than
Scott Gutschewski at a standout 150/1. Three starlight top-20's, giving him
five in the season, have taken him to 148th on the Money List, and he too
will be hoping for a big check to break into the top-125 and land his 2006
PGA Tour card. If his current form was not reason enough to back him, a
quick look at his stats - 4th in total driving distance at over 310 yards!
- makes his price even harder to fathom.

Another outsider who looks over-priced is Joey Sindelar, again at a bet365
standout price of 100/1. Joey plays some of his best golf here with five
top-20's since 1990, including 4th last year. And, more to the point, this
year has been his best for ages, with three top-10s and five top-20s from
his last eight starts, which strongly suggests he'll be thereabouts again
this week. Don't forget, once the first round gets under way, we'll have
live betting via our 'In-Play Console', which also includes prices on the
current Round Leader.

Nigel's Funai Classic Three Off The Tee: Geoff Ogilvy @ 33/1; Joey Sindelar
@ 100/1; Scott Gutschewski @ 150/1 (Each-way ¼ odds 1.2.3.4.5.)
