17 April - World Snooker Championship

The bet:

Judd Trump £5 at 6/1

Placed by: P

Report:

Trump made serene progress to the semi-finals but didn't look at his best for large parts of the match against Stuart Bingham. Trump did force a last frame decider but Bingham held his nerve to make a first final.

10 April - Grand National

The selections

£2.50 e/w The Druid’s Nephew at 12/1
£1.50 e/w Cause of Causes at 14/1
£1 e/w Night in Milan at 28/1

Placed by: P

The Druid's Nephew was leading and going well when slipping on landing and coming down at the 26th fence.

Cause of Causes finished a never nearer eighth.

Night in Milan looked to be staying on but could only finish 18th.


9 April 2015 - US Masters

The selections

£2 e/w D.Johnson at 14/1
£1 e/w Mickelson at 25/1
£1 e/w Fowler at 33/1
£1 e/w Casey at 55/1

Placed by: P

Report:

All four selections made the cut - Johnson and Casey at -7, Mickelson at -6 and Fowler at a disappointing +1. Each way money looking the best hope though as Jordan Spieth goes into the weekend at -14.

Saturday is moving day and Mickelson closed to five shots of the leader and is third. Johnson and Casey went backwards though and have work to do to finish in the top five.

Spieth finished a four shot winner with Mickelson picking up our each way money for tied second. Casey and Johnson were just outside the money tied for sixth and Fowler tied for 12th.

Pick up: £7.25
