Exciting day on all sports fronts!

A feast of sporting action ahead for all enthusiasts today. The Six Nations brings together Ireland and France and you wouldn't win a prize for knowing who I'll be backing in that one. Our boys started off poorly with that narrow win over Italy but Eddie O Sullivan is a shrewd manager and you should see a different Ireland today, lets just hope we see the same French side that were blown away by a superb Scottish performance last Sunday. As I write this it's 0-0 between Wigan and Liverpool in the Premiership after 25 minutes and with a full line up of Premiership fixtures penciled in for today it's set to be a football fan's dream day. And then when you thought it couldn't get any better we have Getminted Racing on Sky Channel 279 between 8 and 10 pm! Ten excellent races for your enjoyment with all the thrills, rewards and tension of real racing.


Time Charter - 8:48 - 12/1

Well the actual 'Ollie Holloway' may be having a difficult time at QPR but I'm sure the horse owner 'Ollie Holloway' would be delighted to see his 6 year old fillie hit the headlines tonight in Hong Kong. In 95 runs she has emerged victorious 13 times and been placed in 40. A consistent and solid performer she has been entered in a number of claiming races of late but is strong over soft going. I expect her to finish in the places tonight.

Indrik the Beast - 8:57 - 26/1

What a run this 2 year old colt is on, after some poor form in the early part of January he got things right and has won the last three races in which he's run. The stats in total for this newcomer reads 10 runs, 3 wins and 1 placed finish. One of these wins came on muddy back on the 28th of January in the USA. Has only been out once this month so should be fully fit. Suprsied by these odds I have to say as Indrik the Beast from the Abaddon stable is a force to be reckoned with.

Kim - 9:12 - 15/2

Recent form for this 2 year old fillie has been very impressive. In 21 runs shes been a winner in 5 and found places in six. Granted she isn't the world's biggest fan of fast going but she should be able to handle it. Won her last two races though both were on muddy. Could well finish in the places this evening if she can continue to feature in the last few furlongs.
