Adam Deadman picks the four best Wimbledon bets...

NAP 20.00 - Blakes Gooner

I've bet Blakes Gooner the last twice, last week heavily so this is his final chance for me. Again he has an absolute plot of a draw and really should be taking advantage of it. Droopys Major won't lead the selection and takes a middle course anyhow, Talksport Pusher and Southeast Rose could well come together at an early stage and so everything looks good for the selection tonight. Leaders Rita finally gets a much needed downgrade whilst Strideaway Kelly showed glimpses last week behind Fenland Jessie; however the favourite looks a good thing.

NB 20.15 - Acceleration

Fresh from collecting after our NAP has just won we can press up and maximise our evening. Acceleration has spent most of his career in Open Race company and trialled in at under 28 seconds. None of the rivals here tonight can match him for four bend speed, not even main danger Sol Dunubair, and our selection has impressive six bend form at Walthamstow from earlier in the year. He looks a cracking bet tonight and anything around [2.0] or just under will be hammered. The rest of the field are graders and Doonanes Pit is included in that; for all his eleven open race runs, he is still a maiden. Sol Dunubair is yet to prove she stays further than four bends.

Value Bet 21.45 - Dun Trading

Dun Trading was noted running a big race last week when managing to go the early yards with Pretty Rose. The winner is at the peak of her powers at present and that was a decent line of form. Drawn outside slow staring Boherash Cameron and Droopys Kelvin, Andrew Peacock's brindle has every chance of turning the bend in front. Droopys Mondo has form in better grade than this; he was a winner in A1 company in April, he looks the main danger but isn't running to the best of his ability. Boherash Cameron is strong but has an unfamiliar trap one slow tonight.

Get It Beat! 22.15 - Windgap Keano

Windgap Keano has won in top grade and dropped in to A2 company this has to represent a cracking chance for Richard Rees' runner but there are reasons to take him on. Imeldas Princess is a talented bitch and is clearly in great heart, she has won her last two races. The same could be said for Andrew Peacock's likeable railer Black Onyx, who has a cracking draw inside of middle moving Walk With Us. He is very game and could be value along the fence. There looks to be plenty of improvement to come from Walk With Us, Norah's charge is on debut at Plough Lane and improved with trials. Perrys Merry is strong and could reel in Windgap Keano if the "Bismark" manages to lead. There are plenty of "outs" for us to take Windgap Keano on with.
