You could be forgiven for questioning the maiden form of 4666 but Kado Sacree is bred for much better than that and we are likely to see that today on handicap debut. Enters handicaps on a rather low mark and this race is not very warm at all. Won’t take a great deal of improvement to take this today and the increased trip are a big positive on pedigree. Ground conditions are ideal and there’s lots of positives for this six year old today. Murphy yard in great form, have been all year and Kado Sacree has a big jockey upgrade today to the fantastic Sean Bowen. When Sean and Olly combine at Carlisle they’ve won 30% of races in the last two years and Sean will get the very best from this boy today at a course he knows very well. Looks set to win handicap debut.

Reason for Tip

Warm looking renewal here with a Balding three year old at the head of the market at time of writing but preference is for Vincenzo Peruggia from the Johnston yard. Ran ok on debut at Hamilton when third back in June last year and followed up at Beverley when winning nicely. Outclassed in the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood when last seen in July last year but this three year old is beautifully bred and looks a major danger on step back down to Class 3 company. Has an ok draw from stall 6 and represents a top yard who won this race last year. Rowan Scott aboard for the ride. Vincenzo Peruggia is highly unexposed and remains open to plenty of further improvement. Should go well fresh and has a major chance today in this grade.

Reason for Tip

This ten year old consistently produces best work in March and April each year and we’ve seen that again this year. Third at Leicester and then a winner at Hereford lto. Remains well treated off adjusted mark and is likely to run well again today in conditions that are ideally suited. For a small yard the Case’s have found a couple of winners recently and that bodes well for Jack Doyen’s chances. Biggest question mark is the course, makes debut today at Newton Abbot and has sometimes struggled going left handed but if he can shake that off, looks to have a good chance today.

Reason for Tip

Pretty open race here and Springtime Legend from the Mulholland stable. Low mileage and only three runs in handicaps so far with form of 613. Wasn’t far away lto when third and looks to be open to further progression from this mark. Will stay this trip and acts on this ground and looks more than capable of having a big run today. From a yard with a good course record and who’ve also found a patch of really solid form. Richie Mclernon in the saddle is no bad thing and Springtime Legend looks a nice price at 8/1 and is certainly not written out of winning this today.

Reason for Tip

Largely there or thereabouts recently for Kirkdale and form gong back to November last year reads 2244. Has struggled in last two starts when missing the break from arguably quite poor rides. Positive jockey change to the inform Callum Rodriguez today and has a plum draw from stall 2. Can run prominently so wouldn’t be surprised if the orders were to get out front and may be hard to peg back if given an easy time of it off this mark. Callum winning more than a third of his rides at the moment and partners with a stable that he has a stellar record for today. Kirkdale is in very good hands in a race that looks winnable. Big chance.

Chelsea v Port Vale Tips, Predictions and 15/1 Bet Builder

04 April – 17:15 | FA Cup Quarter-Final | Stamford Bridge

Chelsea v Port Vale Preview

Chelsea return to FA Cup action looking to salvage a turbulent campaign when they host League One strugglers Port Valeat Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea’s recent form has been alarming. Since their dramatic 4-2 extra-time win over Wrexham in the fifth round, the Blues have lost four straight matches across all competitions, conceding 12 goals and scoring just twice. An 8-2 aggregate Champions League exit to Paris Saint-Germain compounded pressure on head coach Liam Rosenior, while Premier League defeats to Newcastle and Everton have dented their top-four ambitions.

With Champions League qualification uncertain, the FA Cup now represents Chelsea’s only realistic route to silverware. Their record in this competition is formidable — unbeaten in their last six quarter-final ties and dominant against lower-league opposition, winning 37 consecutive domestic cup matches against teams outside the top flight.

Port Vale arrive as the competition’s lowest-ranked side, enjoying a dream run that has included a shock 1-0 victory over Sunderland. Despite struggling in League One and staring relegation in the face, Jon Brady’s side have shown resilience and belief in cup competition.

This will be the clubs’ first meeting in almost a century. For Port Vale, this is history in the making. For Chelsea, it’s about avoiding embarrassment and keeping their season alive.

Mallorca v Real Madrid Tips, Predictions and 5/1 Bet Builder

04 April – 15:15 | La Liga | Son Moix

Mallorca v Real Madrid Preview

RCD Mallorca are fighting for their La Liga survival when they host title-chasing Real Madrid on Saturday afternoon.

It has been a difficult campaign for Mallorca, who sit 18th with 28 points from 29 matches. While they secured a valuable 2-1 win over Espanyol in March, a damaging defeat to Elche last time out leaves them inside the relegation zone.

The Pirates have at least been competitive at Son Moix, losing just four of 14 home league matches and collecting 22 points on their own patch. With survival still within reach, expect a combative display.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, are firmly in the title race. A 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid before the international break extended Los Blancos’ winning run to five games in all competitions. They currently sit second, four points behind leaders Barcelona.

Despite juggling Champions League commitments, Madrid cannot afford to drop points here. They boast the best away record in La Liga (30 points from 14 matches) and have won their last three meetings with Mallorca.

However, squad rotation is likely with several injuries and suspensions affecting Carlo Ancelotti’s selection.

Reason for Tip

Arsenal FC have a genuine opportunity to secure a historic Premier League and FA Cup double this season, driven by their consistency, squad depth and tactical maturity. They have maintained one of the best defensive records in the league while also averaging over 2 goals per game, showing a balance that is typically required to win major honours. Arsenal’s ability to control games through midfield dominance, combined with their effectiveness in both open play and set pieces, has made them one of the most complete teams in England. Crucially, they have also shown resilience in big matches, regularly picking up points against top opposition, while their squad rotation has allowed them to compete on multiple fronts without a drop in performance levels. With momentum, confidence and a clear tactical identity, Arsenal are well positioned to sustain a title challenge while also progressing deep into the FA Cup, making the double a realistic and compelling outcome

Reason for Tip

Tottenham Hotspur are now firmly in a relegation battle, sitting just above the bottom three, and their recent form suggests this is not a temporary dip but a sustained decline. They have struggled to pick up wins, with a points-per-game return consistent with teams that typically go down, while defensive issues have seen them concede regularly in key matches. Confidence within the squad appears fragile, and in high-pressure situations they have lacked the resilience needed to grind out results. With momentum a crucial factor at this stage of the season, Spurs are trending in the wrong direction, and if they fail to reverse this form quickly—particularly in must-win fixtures against fellow strugglers—they are at genuine risk of being dragged into the bottom three.

Chelsea v Port Vale Tips, Predictions and 15/1 Bet Builder

04 April – 17:15 | FA Cup Quarter-Final | Stamford Bridge

Chelsea v Port Vale Preview

Chelsea return to FA Cup action looking to salvage a turbulent campaign when they host League One strugglers Port Valeat Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea’s recent form has been alarming. Since their dramatic 4-2 extra-time win over Wrexham in the fifth round, the Blues have lost four straight matches across all competitions, conceding 12 goals and scoring just twice. An 8-2 aggregate Champions League exit to Paris Saint-Germain compounded pressure on head coach Liam Rosenior, while Premier League defeats to Newcastle and Everton have dented their top-four ambitions.

With Champions League qualification uncertain, the FA Cup now represents Chelsea’s only realistic route to silverware. Their record in this competition is formidable — unbeaten in their last six quarter-final ties and dominant against lower-league opposition, winning 37 consecutive domestic cup matches against teams outside the top flight.

Port Vale arrive as the competition’s lowest-ranked side, enjoying a dream run that has included a shock 1-0 victory over Sunderland. Despite struggling in League One and staring relegation in the face, Jon Brady’s side have shown resilience and belief in cup competition.

This will be the clubs’ first meeting in almost a century. For Port Vale, this is history in the making. For Chelsea, it’s about avoiding embarrassment and keeping their season alive.

Mallorca v Real Madrid Tips, Predictions and 5/1 Bet Builder

04 April – 15:15 | La Liga | Son Moix

Mallorca v Real Madrid Preview

RCD Mallorca are fighting for their La Liga survival when they host title-chasing Real Madrid on Saturday afternoon.

It has been a difficult campaign for Mallorca, who sit 18th with 28 points from 29 matches. While they secured a valuable 2-1 win over Espanyol in March, a damaging defeat to Elche last time out leaves them inside the relegation zone.

The Pirates have at least been competitive at Son Moix, losing just four of 14 home league matches and collecting 22 points on their own patch. With survival still within reach, expect a combative display.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, are firmly in the title race. A 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid before the international break extended Los Blancos’ winning run to five games in all competitions. They currently sit second, four points behind leaders Barcelona.

Despite juggling Champions League commitments, Madrid cannot afford to drop points here. They boast the best away record in La Liga (30 points from 14 matches) and have won their last three meetings with Mallorca.

However, squad rotation is likely with several injuries and suspensions affecting Carlo Ancelotti’s selection.

Reason for Tip

Arsenal FC have a genuine opportunity to secure a historic Premier League and FA Cup double this season, driven by their consistency, squad depth and tactical maturity. They have maintained one of the best defensive records in the league while also averaging over 2 goals per game, showing a balance that is typically required to win major honours. Arsenal’s ability to control games through midfield dominance, combined with their effectiveness in both open play and set pieces, has made them one of the most complete teams in England. Crucially, they have also shown resilience in big matches, regularly picking up points against top opposition, while their squad rotation has allowed them to compete on multiple fronts without a drop in performance levels. With momentum, confidence and a clear tactical identity, Arsenal are well positioned to sustain a title challenge while also progressing deep into the FA Cup, making the double a realistic and compelling outcome

Reason for Tip

Tottenham Hotspur are now firmly in a relegation battle, sitting just above the bottom three, and their recent form suggests this is not a temporary dip but a sustained decline. They have struggled to pick up wins, with a points-per-game return consistent with teams that typically go down, while defensive issues have seen them concede regularly in key matches. Confidence within the squad appears fragile, and in high-pressure situations they have lacked the resilience needed to grind out results. With momentum a crucial factor at this stage of the season, Spurs are trending in the wrong direction, and if they fail to reverse this form quickly—particularly in must-win fixtures against fellow strugglers—they are at genuine risk of being dragged into the bottom three.

You could be forgiven for questioning the maiden form of 4666 but Kado Sacree is bred for much better than that and we are likely to see that today on handicap debut. Enters handicaps on a rather low mark and this race is not very warm at all. Won’t take a great deal of improvement to take this today and the increased trip are a big positive on pedigree. Ground conditions are ideal and there’s lots of positives for this six year old today. Murphy yard in great form, have been all year and Kado Sacree has a big jockey upgrade today to the fantastic Sean Bowen. When Sean and Olly combine at Carlisle they’ve won 30% of races in the last two years and Sean will get the very best from this boy today at a course he knows very well. Looks set to win handicap debut.

Reason for Tip

Warm looking renewal here with a Balding three year old at the head of the market at time of writing but preference is for Vincenzo Peruggia from the Johnston yard. Ran ok on debut at Hamilton when third back in June last year and followed up at Beverley when winning nicely. Outclassed in the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood when last seen in July last year but this three year old is beautifully bred and looks a major danger on step back down to Class 3 company. Has an ok draw from stall 6 and represents a top yard who won this race last year. Rowan Scott aboard for the ride. Vincenzo Peruggia is highly unexposed and remains open to plenty of further improvement. Should go well fresh and has a major chance today in this grade.

Reason for Tip

This ten year old consistently produces best work in March and April each year and we’ve seen that again this year. Third at Leicester and then a winner at Hereford lto. Remains well treated off adjusted mark and is likely to run well again today in conditions that are ideally suited. For a small yard the Case’s have found a couple of winners recently and that bodes well for Jack Doyen’s chances. Biggest question mark is the course, makes debut today at Newton Abbot and has sometimes struggled going left handed but if he can shake that off, looks to have a good chance today.

Reason for Tip

Pretty open race here and Springtime Legend from the Mulholland stable. Low mileage and only three runs in handicaps so far with form of 613. Wasn’t far away lto when third and looks to be open to further progression from this mark. Will stay this trip and acts on this ground and looks more than capable of having a big run today. From a yard with a good course record and who’ve also found a patch of really solid form. Richie Mclernon in the saddle is no bad thing and Springtime Legend looks a nice price at 8/1 and is certainly not written out of winning this today.

04 April – 17:15 | FA Cup Quarter-Final | Stamford Bridge

Chelsea v Port Vale Preview

Chelsea return to FA Cup action looking to salvage a turbulent campaign when they host League One strugglers Port Valeat Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea’s recent form has been alarming. Since their dramatic 4-2 extra-time win over Wrexham in the fifth round, the Blues have lost four straight matches across all competitions, conceding 12 goals and scoring just twice. An 8-2 aggregate Champions League exit to Paris Saint-Germain compounded pressure on head coach Liam Rosenior, while Premier League defeats to Newcastle and Everton have dented their top-four ambitions.

With Champions League qualification uncertain, the FA Cup now represents Chelsea’s only realistic route to silverware. Their record in this competition is formidable — unbeaten in their last six quarter-final ties and dominant against lower-league opposition, winning 37 consecutive domestic cup matches against teams outside the top flight.

Port Vale arrive as the competition’s lowest-ranked side, enjoying a dream run that has included a shock 1-0 victory over Sunderland. Despite struggling in League One and staring relegation in the face, Jon Brady’s side have shown resilience and belief in cup competition.

This will be the clubs’ first meeting in almost a century. For Port Vale, this is history in the making. For Chelsea, it’s about avoiding embarrassment and keeping their season alive.
