Outright Picks - Champions Tour

Tipster: Stanley

Odds: Outright

ACE Group Classic

FINAL RESULT: 0-3; -6.00pts

Levi 7th
Pooley 12th
Reese 18th

They say things happen in threes, so next week should be very profitable! Yesterday, Levi took the lead and immediately double-bogeyed the next hole to disappear down the leaderboard; earlier today, Louis Oosthuizen took sole lead in South Africa in the final round and then his game fell apart; and here, Levi became joint leader with Mark James with just one hole to play and he double-bogeyed the last hole to not just fall out of the lead, but out of the places as well. Not a very good day.

 

Outright plays (total stake per play: 2pts)

Wayne Levi to win  25/1 e.w. @ BetInternet
Opting for larger odds players in this event as this is where the value appears to be at current odds. There have been two Tour events this year and Levi has finished in the top-five in both of them. Having already won an event wire-to-wire last October and with a 6th place finish on this course last year, he looks well set to continue his run of top-5 finishes.

Don Pooley to win 50/1 e.w. @ SkyBet and BetInternet
Twice the price and also as impressive form. Pooley also finished in the top-5 in the last event and has finished 7th and 12th in the last two years here. Certainly looks capable of another top-5 finish this week.

Don Reese to win 125/1 e.w. @ SkyBet
Big price for a player who finished 4th in the Champions Tour Q-School and in the top-10 on his Tour debut at the Turtle Bay Championship. He spent his first year as a Senior on the Sunbelt Senior Tour where he was the leading money winner, winning five times on that Tour and it appears to have kept him competitive for this Tour. No course experience, but the price more than compensates for this.
