Jonbon hard to oppose in Shloer return
Jonbon can pick up where he left off and start his season in a winning fashion in the Shloer Chase at Cheltenham on Friday.
GREAT MIX OF MATCHES IN WEEKEND TAB SOCCER POOLS The last international window of 2024 is underway and TAB soccer pools this weekend comprise a mixed bag of games, ranging from only international clashes in tonight’s R100,000-added Soccer 10 to a combo of English League One and Two matches in Saturday’s first Soccer 10. GET SET FOR A R1.5-MILLION PLUS SOCCER 10 BET TONIGHT Tonight’s Soccer 10 pot should total over R1.5 million as a result of TAB’s R100,000 cash bonus and the bet offers an interesting mix of UEFA Nations League group clashes, plus a couple of AFCON 2026 and World Cup qualifiers. Spain have not lost this year, winning 12 of their last 13 games and drawing the other, and should come out tops in a away clash against Denmark. It’s worth noting, however, that they only beat the Danes 1-0 in the reverse fixture in Murcia last month and will inevitably find it tougher in Copenhagen. The stand-out banker in the pool must be Portugal, who will have maximum crowd support when they take on Poland in Porto. They were a bit disappointing when only drawing away to Scotland last time, but they outgunned Poland 3-1 in the reverse fixture and must be expected to put their rivals to the sword again at home. Northern Ireland and Switzerland to win at home also appeal as possible bankers, but harder to call is the last game in the bet between Uruguay and Colombia. Uruguay will look to make the most of home advantage as they bid to avenge a defeat by Colombia in a Copa America semi-final last year. Uruguay are normally strong at home and made a flying start under new coach Marco Bielsa last year. But results have dropped off this year with reports of several players being unhappy with the controversial coach. That could open the way for Colombia score a famous victory. Saturday’s second Soccer 10 also gets a R100,000 boost from TAB and Germany and Holland both look banker bets to score home victories over Bosnia and Hungary respectively. Saturday’s Soccer 13 guarantees a big pool in the event of only one all-13-correct and here best advice is to rely on Sweden, Holland and Turkey to win at home.
