Sports Update

Things have been so busy on the racing front that there is only a minor update here, especially as I have no interest in international football friendlies.

Kei Nishikori has successfully negotiated the first few rounds of the French Open although, like Andy Murray, he has been taken to five sets. It is a great pity the pair probably meet at the start of the second week but I still like NISHIKORI, who is playing some of his best tennis at present. If you snapped up the 25/1 to win the tournament, as advised, there is nothing to stop you having a small saver on Murray – always assuming both come through their next test. The Scot is not a certainty to beat John Isner, of course, if the latter’s serve is in its normal working order.
