It’s another fantastic weekend in sport and the 2008 Wimbledon championships begin on Monday. Roger Federer is going for his sixth mens singles title in a row but he will be under pressure from Rafael Nadal, who seems to be taking to the grass courts. Men’s betting: 5/4 R Federer, 9/4 Nadal, 7/2 Djocovic, 25/1 Roddick, 25/1 A Murray. Nadal at 9/4 looks a value bet to me. Ladies Singles: 5/2 Sharapova, 3/1 S Williams, 5/1 V Williams, 6/1 Ivanovic, 10/1 Jancovic, 20/1 bar. Sharapova has a very good record on grass and is taken to win another title here. Royal Ascot: It’s been another good week for Aidan O’Brien and he will be hoping to make history with Yeats in the Ascot Gold Cup on Thursday. On Friday the Coronation Stakes is the main race – betting as follows: 3/1 Infallible, 7/2 Spacious, 6/1 Lush Lashes, 8/1 bar. Soccer: Euro quarter-finals: Croatia 1/1, Turkey 7/2, Draw 9/4. Portugal 13/8 Germany 15/8 Draw 2/1. Spain 6/4 Italy 15/8 Draw 9/4. GAA championship betting – Football: Laois 1/1 v Wexford 1/1; Draw 13/2. Mayo 1/6 v Sligo 5/1; Draw 12/1. Derry 4/9 v Fermanagh 9/4; Draw 15/2. Hurling: Dublin 6/5 v Wexford 5/6; Draw 9/1. Limerick 1/1 v Clare 1/1; Draw 9/1. Bet of the Week: We are on a bad run at the moment but hopefully we can turn it around this week. We are now €28.50 up for the year. This week in the Golden Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot on Saturday I am very sweet on a horse called Marchadir (available at at least 7/1). He won very well recently and he has had his form franked this week at Royal Ascot. €10 each-way at 7/1 or the SP is this week’s bet.
