1. Royal Ascot Gold Cup, 4.20pm – Stradivarius Binary 100-0, 36.3-40
Far and away the favourite heading into Thursday’s Gold Cup at Royal Ascot, John Gosden’s Stradivarius – set to be ridden by racing legend Frankie Dettori – sits at a Binary 100-0 spread of 36.3-42.2. For those looking for a bit more of a punt, Cross Counter is then at 18.1-22.3, followed by Dee Ex Bee at 11.7-15.4. And the longest shot? Aidan O’Brien’s Cypress Creek at 0-1.

2. Australia vs Bangladesh – Aaron Finch Player Performance, 56-61
Seeking to leapfrog New Zealand at the top of the group, the Aussies go into their match against Bangladesh as firm favourites, at an Australia/Bangladesh Supremacy spread of 42-52. Aaron Finch, meanwhile, will try and replicate the shift he put in against Sri Lanka, where he picked up 153 runs, the joint highest score of the competition so far. He heads into Thursday’s fixture at a Player Performance spread of 56-61, where its 1 point per run, 10 per catch, 20 per wicket and 25 per stumping.

3. Sweden vs USA – Total Goal Minutes, 136-146
After a monstrous – and perhaps unsporting – result against Thailand in their opening game, the USA calmed down against Chile, only beating them 3-0. Sweden, meanwhile, also demolished the Thai women, a 5-1 victory coming after their own 2-0 win over the Chileans. As they battle for the Group F top spot, it’ll be interesting to see whether or not the nations are quite so fluid against tougher competition. Either way, Spreadex are offering a Total Goal Minutes spread of 136-146.

4. London Broncos vs Hull KR – London/Hull KR Points Supremacy, -1.5-1.5
Having each won just a third of their 18 games so far, both London Broncos and Hull KR are sat at the bottom of the Super League on 12 points, the former stuck in the relegation spot due to an inferior points difference. And though the Broncos are in an upswing – they’ve picked up back-to-back wins, including a golden-point victory over league leaders St Helens – it is a tough one to call, leading Spreadex to offer a choice London/Hull KR Points Supremacy spread of -1.5-1.5.

5. Uruguay vs Japan – Luis Suarez Super Mega Player Goal Minutes, 62-72
Uruguay beat Ecuador 4-0. Japan lost to Chile 4-0. That mix doesn’t look good for Shinji Kagawa’s side, who are making their 2nd ever appearance in the Copa America, leaving Luis Suarez with a promising Super Mega PGM spread of 62-72.
