Weekend betting tips: Four bets that could make you a fortune

We tipped a 10/1 winner here last week in Salute The Soldier, so hopefully we can find some more winners this time around.

It's a huge weekend of horse racing action with Irish Champions Weekend taking place at Leopardstown and the Curragh, while the final classic of the season takes place at Doncaster in the St Leger.

The Premier League also returns after the international break.

Oh and there's an All-Ireland final replay being played at Croke Park.

Here's our best bets:

Tottenham to beat Crystal Palace 3pm Saturday 4/11

Tottenham suffered a shock defeat to Newcastle in their last home game and will be desperate to get a win here as a result.

They face a Crystal Palace side who are currently fourth in the league table and who have already beaten Manchester United away from home this season.

But realistically Spurs should be able to beat them at home. Back them to do exactly that.

Magical 4.15pm Leopardstown Saturday 7/4

Magical is the one they all have to beat in the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown on Saturday.

Aidan O'Brien's classy filly has beaten some very good horses and would have three more Group 1 wins to her name if it wasn't for Enable.

She looks a class above today's rivals and should extend O'Brien's record in the race to eight wins.

Dublin -4 handicap v Kerry 6pm Saturday EVS

These teams couldn't be separated just under two weeks ago, but I strongly fancy Dublin to get the job done on Saturday.

The five-in-a-row seekers had to play the whole second-half in the initial game with 14 men and if they can keep a full team on the pitch this time, I think it could be a much different result.

Back Jim Gavin's men to win by five points or more.

Kew Gardens 4.10pm Curragh Sunday 5/2

Last year's English Leger winner Kew Gardens will be very hard to stop in this season's Irish equivalent if coming into the race near the top of his game.

He was well beaten in his seasonal debut at Chester before just being bet by Defoe in the Coronation Cup on Oaks day at Epsom.

He has a bit of a break to overcome here as the Coronation Cup was his last run, but he should put in a big run.
