Sporting Life's best bets

HORSE RACING: Soie D'Leau to win 3.40 Leicester

"Kristin Stubbs' five-year-old has dropped 8lb in the weights after a win-less season so far but this is his time of year and he looks ready to strike. He won in September and October last campaign, relishing the cut in the ground when winning at Haydock and he went close at that track last time when second to Mayleaf Shine. That suggested his turn wasn't far away and this looks a race there for the taking." (Ben Linfoot)

FOOTBALL: Arsenal to win and under 2.5 total goals

"The spotlight is very much back on Arsenal as 4/11 pokes against a rival with numerous limitations. This is the start of a run of top-flight games for Arsenal that appear on paper to be less testing until a trip to Manchester City on November 5 so is an opportunity for them to start cutting into that early deficit behind the pacesetters." (David John)

TENNIS: Andrey Rublev to win the Chengdu Open

"The primary reason is that the young Russian played some excellent tennis at the US Open where he took down both Grigor Dimitrov and David Goffin en route the last eight. He was building on some decent form brought in from other surfaces, such as winning on the Umag clay and reaching the quarters on the grass of Halle. His serve was a real weapon in New York and can help him here in what last year were fairly slick conditions. Rublev is a viable each-way proposition. Indeed, with a first-round bye, only three wins would be required to secure a profit." (Andy Schooler)

GREYHOUNDS: Keplar Nine to win 8.50 Doncaster

"We have an excellent card of open action at Doncaster this evening and three bets to try and start the working week with a flourish. St Leger winner Keplar Nine (T6) takes on the highly-regarded 3 Steps To Victory third Droopys Live at 8.50, and we fancy the former to put his experience to good use. Victory over the likes of Russelena Reggie and Swift Hansel sets the form standard, and he could have a dream run up the outside now in his favoured striped jacket. " (Richard Wilson)
