Weekend Premieship Guide
Portsmouth v West Ham United
Both teams have lost there last few games and this will be an ideal opportunity to get back to winning ways. West Ham are still awaiting a return on their Argentine investments and this may be the game that Tevez and Mascherano make their mark in the premiership. An away win is the selection here at around 3/1.
Arsenal v Watford
Arsenal are looking a much better side compared to the start of the season. They have finally settled into their new stadium and Watford are likely to be on the end of a thumping in this game. correct score offers the best betting value bet here as Arsenal are too short priced for a straight win bet. 4 -0 or 5-0 is the likely outcome here and is well worth a bet at around 10/1 and 16/1. You may prefer to take the 'any unquoted' correct score bet at Betfair as this will cover a range of high scoring Arsenal performances in a single bet.
Newcastle v Bolton
Newcastle are struggling at the moment and
Bolton are on a good run of form despite problems of the field. In what will be a close game, Bolton should manage a win here by the odd goal. At around 5/2 at Betfair, Bolton are the bet of the week in the Premiership.

Horse Racing
Totessport Caeserwitch - Saturday - Newmarket
Connections of the once-retired Saint Alebe go into Saturday's Totesport Cesarewitch increasingly hopeful that the former Ebor winner can complete his recovery from leg and back injuries by landing a "fairytale" victory in the Newmarket marathon.
Jeannie Brown, part-owner of Saint Alebe and assistant to the seven-year-old's trainer David Elsworth, on Monday said it was a "fairytale that the horse is anywhere near to running in the race we wanted to run him in three years ago".
Brown was speaking on the day the gelding -partnered by Richard Quinn to land the Ebor in 2003 - featured among 36 acceptors for a contest for which he trades as short as 8-1 second favourite behind solid market leader Detroit City.
Godolphin riders Frankie Dettori and Kerrin McEvoy have both secured high-profile Cesarewitch mounts. Dettori is booked to partner Finalemente - on whom he won a £50,000 Lingfield handicap in May - and McEvoy is engaged to ride Whispering Death for William Haggas.
The sustained support for Detroit City continued yesterday. Jamie Spencer's mount is now a best-priced 7-1 after being cut from 8-1 by Ladbrokes and Skybet, while Ladbrokes also cut Theatre to 10-1 from 14-1.
Mick Channon's smart stayer Baddam headed the list of 36 horses engaged in the Cesarewitch.
Other possibles include Jamie Poulton's Theatre and the Mark Johnston-trained Contact Dancer, McEldowney and Quizzene.
Len Lungo's Mirjan, who hasfinished seventh in the last two renewals of the Cesarewitch, is also among the confirmations. However Mirjan has neve won of his mark of 93 and will be a huge surprise if it does so this weekend
The overall verdict then is a that this will be a tough race to pick a winner. Baddam is our best bet here. An each way bet is advisable at around 16/1. You will be certain to get a good run for your money. Check out the Tip Zone and view this weekend tips.
