Follow McCoy at Haydock

Haydock should be dominated by Tony McCoy today. He has seven rides and four of them are clear winning chances in my book. McCoy is the greatest of them all and he is enjoying some good luck at the moment on top of the unequalled skill and drive that makes him the punters pal.

I would not be surprised to see Forty Five (2.40), Zemsky (4.20), Firth of Forth (4.55) and Pervil (5.30) win. He has huge chances and looks a good combination for the Saturday Yankees which will give some fun for a small investment. It would be a nice day out at Haydock this afternoon which is the best card of the day.

Elsewhere the big race of the day is the Winter Derby at Lingfield at 3.05. I am a huge fan of PREMIO LOCO who looks a real class horse. The doubt is the trip of 1m 2f but the trainer, Chris Wall thinks he will get it and so does the excellent jockey George Baker. Back this horse NOW and Get Yourself a £10 FREE BET.

Newbury looks tough but Nicky Henderson has a couple to watch out for and Ping Pong Sivola is consistent, but I am not playing at Newbury today. Similarly Bangor and Stratford are not for me.

Telebetting has a huge bet today, the trial is Free on 0844 412 1740 (local call). One account bet so far and one winner. This service provides info from a good source and the trial will end soon so try it Free again today. Updated from 10am.

At Wincanton tomorrow Paul Nicholls is parading his Cheltenham winners, Master Minded, Kauto Star and Big Bucks. That will be a nice day out and you could take your Mum on Mothers Day and kill two birds with one stone!

Have a great day.
