Farners Insurance Open (Day Two)
Not a good day for the big names with Day, Rose, Casey, Fowler, Matsuyama & Mickelson all missing the cut. Day was suffering with flu so can be excused but it looks like a long priced winner here is likely.
Jason Day 7/1 +2 Missed Cut
Brandt Snedeker 18/1 -1 Tied 57th
Jamie Lovemark 70/1 -1 Tied 57th
Smylie Kaufman 100/1 -4 Tied 18th
Ryan Ruffels 500/1 -1 Tied 57th

Dubai Desert Classic
A decent quality field with Rory McIlroy a strong 5/2 favourite with only Stenson at 10/1 below 20/1. Rory is a justifiable favourite and has all the credentials to win it. I really cannot go at 5/2 when it just takes one form player to beat him as Rickie Fowler did two weeks ago. So I am really looking for a few players to take him on and give us a good chance of another decent price winner.
We know what is required on this course as we have plenty of data from previous years. This course favours big drivers, GIR and all round & putting accuracy. Driving Accuracy & Scrambling appear to be far less important.
Thorbjorn Olesen 40/1
Was very impressed with Olesen last week and with a bit more luck with his putts, he could have been the winner. He was third here three years ago & 5th two years ago so likes the course. His GIR is good & his driving decent enough that he could be the one this week if he can get his putts to drop.
Rafa Carera Bello 35/1
Won here in 2012 and was second last week so could be his opportunity. Has great GIR figures. Questions about his bottle when close but faired well last week under pressure.
Thomas Pieters 35/1
The arguments for Pieters are good on this course despite struggling last week. He is ideally suited here & was second two weeks ago. Decent value.
Stephen Gallacher 70/1
There are big arguments both for and against here but at 70/1, I have to be in. Gallacher won here in 2013 & 2014, was second in 2012 & third last year. He just loves this course. Otherwise there is little to support him but I just love his course form too much at this price.
Alex Noten 75/1
Runner up here a year ago, Noren is starting to show the form that he threatened a year ago and could break through on a course that he knows and loves.
I will look at a couple of these players as FRL when the draw is announced but I will be looking for a player with an early start on Day One assuming the weather forecast stays as currently forecast.
Got FIRST & SECOND last week so hopefully more of the same this week.

Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Football League Bets
Just one bet for tonight.
Sheff Wed v Burnley
Got to go low corners here even with Bet365 setting the line at 9.5. This would still have won on all of Wednesday's last eight home matches at an average of 6.6. It would also have won in 7 of Burnley's last ten away matches at an average of 8.1. Think this could be a tight match anyway with a lot of play in midfield so pretty confident unless there is an early goal.
Bet Four Points on Under 9.5 Corners at 10/11
Correct Score Bets
Port Vale v Swindon 1-0 1-1
Morecambe v Portsmouth 1-2 2-2
Good Luck!

Think there were just five corners unless my maths is dodgy.
Also got correct score at Port Vale!
