Thursday's Racing
On a good note, today is National Youth Day in Zambia. On a bad note, the life expectancy in Zambia is about 40 so there's no National Old People Day. There isn't even any point having a National Middle-Aged Day. An interesting, if somewhat depressing little tidbit. Enjoy a little light-hearted fun with today's racing action from Wincanton, Clonmel, Wolverhampton, Southwell and Carlisle? Don't forget, we also pay out on disqualified winners and official result on all UK & Ireland races.

Give It A Wrist
They're the staple diet of travelling salesmen and men with partners who are especially heavy sleepers, but the Minnesota Legislature has moved to ban employees of the state from staying in hotels that provide pornographic movies – whatever they are. Showing a poor understanding of the work of pimps, sex shops and logic, Bible-basher and president of the Citizens for Community Values, Phil Burress explained "Essentially the hotels are just pimps. The people in the films are being paid to have sex, and the hotels are paying for those films, which they then ask viewers to pay for." Luckily for him, no hotel in the world has yet heard of the internet. Do your smut-most to boost your bank balance by landing a few winners in tonight's US Racing live on At The Races.

Europa League Betting
Eur In To The Big(ish) Time
After 73 rounds, several thousand matches and all the excitement you'd need to make a gerbil giddy, the Europa League has reached a point where we actually know where these teams come from. For some it's an opportunity to compete`against European giants and pretend they're in the Champions League. "Playing against the Bianconeri is like a final for us, there aren't many teams left in the competition who can match the pedigree of Juventus," chirped Roy Hodgson ahead of a trip to Turin. For others it's simply a reminder of how badly their season is going: "Winning the Europa League?...that would not be enough to get over the disappointment of not having challenged for the Scudetto," curmudgeoned Juve's Del Piero. Will the Italians be in a different league? Thurs 8.05pm ITV4/Setanta

Pieter-ing Out?
When the runs were flowing, people were prepared to tolerate Kevin Pietersen's brash whims, but it's come to the notice of many that without the runs, he's just a bit of an arse. In response to calls for the South African to be dropped, England coach Andy Flower says he'll stick by him in the hope he papers over the cracks with easy runs against Bangladesh. Adopting the glass half full attitude when all he's been given is a paper cup, Flower spoke highly of Pietersen's contribution against Bangladesh A. "I thought he looked quite good for his 20. It was a positive 20, an attacking 20," said Flower, doing his best to tart up 20 against Bangladesh's reserves. Is there some Bang for your buck by backing Pietersen to be Top England 1st Innings Runscorer @ 7/2 in the 1st Test? Fri. 3.30am SS1

Spain-ful Memories
"Oh! Not them bloody Germans again," David Albelda may have groaned lately. The Valencia captain hadn't just looked out the window of his Torremolinos hotel room to see the pick of the poolside sunbeds reserved with a series of neatly placed beach towels, he was reliving the bad memories of German sides Los Ches have amassed down through the years. Bundesliga sides have only lost 4 of 19 games against Valencia and Werder Bremen effectively knocked them out of the Champions League a few years back with wins home and away in the group stage. "Hearing the name Werder Bremen as our next rivals didn't exactly give us a good feeling," he admitted. The Werd on the street suggests Bremen are good value to maintain the hoodoo with a win.

Dead and Buried?
In most cases, Jose Mourinho manages to rub people up the wrong way and we don't mean that in a 'how your dog might greet a guest in your house' kind of way. Down Fido! Italians particularly don't find him endearing and that's not very helpful given that he manages Inter Milan. Pietro Lo Monaco, a director at Catania, reckons he'll give the Portuguese coach a good send off when he leaves Europe's boot. "I must say he has attracted widespread ridicule from the people. If Mourinho leaves at the end of the season we are ready to plan his funeral," he said, with just a hint of Don Corleone in his voice, before not adding "he'll be sleeping with the fishes." For Piet's sake don't miss backing Inter to beat Catania! Fri 7.45pm ESPN/PPTV

The Time Is Now
We've all used the flawed logic which explains how if the past had occurred differently, things would have turned out in our favour. "Tonight I started slow, if I had started well I would have won," explained Adrian Lewis after coming back from 7-4 down to draw against James Wade. The flaw in the logic being that he did in fact start slowly and as the only way to manipulate time is to go and watch a Liverpool game, where two hours stretches on for eternity, or at least seems to, he can't go back in time and hurry himself up. It's like a fat person saying they'd be slim if they didn't eat all that cake. Well you did, so you're not. Lewis can at least make sure he gets off to a better start this week and after his weekend win, he looks the logical choice against Whitlock. Thurs 7.10pm SS1
