Be quick to grab 6-1 Flintoff

Andy Flintoff is too big to resist, at 6-1 with Bet365, to emerge as England’s top wicket-taker in the three-match Test Series against New Zealand, which begins on Thursday.

Portsmouth can clip Fulham's wings

Portsmouth look overpriced at 5-2 with VC Bet to disprove the assumption that they will provide little resistance to a motivated Fulham side by beating the Londoners in their Premier League fixture at Fratton Park on Sunday.

Stiffer test ideal for Bold Bobby Be

There again looks to be precious little value at Chester today and the best of this morning's prices is Bold Bobby Be (3.00 Nottingham), who is available at 8-1 with Betfred.

Shrimpers look a tasty bet

Southend United can take a step towards reaching the League One play-off final by making the most of home advantage against Doncaster Rovers in the first leg of their semi-final clash on Friday night.

Jump to it with Boot 'N Toot

The bookmakers are giving precious little away on a trappy card at Chester and the pick of the early prices comes over jumps at Wincanton, where Boot 'N Toot (7.20) looks a value bet at 9-1 with Betfred.

Hatters can top the bill

Stockport County have what it takes to win the League Two play-offs. The Hatters, a standout 5-2 with Stan James, are fancied to get the better of Wycombe Wanderers (100-30) in their semi-final and can prove too strong for either  Darlington (11-4) or Rochdale (11-4) in the decider.

Cink can clean out layers at 25-1

Stewart Cink should be backed at the generally available odds of 25-1 to claim the victory he’s been threatening all year in the prestigious Players Championship at Sawgrass. The event, regarded as the fifth major, carries a whopping $9 million prize pool and starts on Thursday.

Ballochroy can keep Hills on top

The bookmakers usually price up Barry Hills-trained runners defensively at the Chester May meeting, but that is not the case with Ballochroy (4.35), who looks decent each-way value at the 11-1 offered by William Hill.

Leeds look banker material

Leeds United look worthy favourites to win the League One play-offs.

Rangers to make flying start

Rangers can close the gap on great rivals Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premier League by beating visitors Motherwell on Wednesday evening.
