Friday Cheltenham Cross-Sport Double

Sir Erec's career as a National Hunt horse may well be short-lived due to the colt's ability on the flat and potential stud value, so capitalise tomorrow on a top class prospect.

This is by no means a weak renewal of the Triumph, but that only means that this star is a price at which we can back him to get punters off to a flyer on Gold Cup day.

Nice’s excellent home form should see them beat fellow mid-table side Toulouse on Friday; a result which is generously priced at 6/5.

Six wins and two draws from their last eight Ligue 1 outings at the Allianz Riviera sees the hosts head into this brimming with confidence, and they’ll fancy their chances against a Toulouse side who have lost three away games on the bounce.
