The Carnegie Challenge Cup


Some fantastic wagers in the Challenge Cup this weekend, but be quick I fear the layers haven't a clue:

Wakefield v Leigh



3rd April 20:00 GMT

I think we will find the difference between the Super League and the Championship in this one. A dry day is forecast and the Super League team will have too much pace and power. Leigh are nothing special and scraped wins at Sheffield and Doncaster and a loss at home to Whitehaven doesn't inspire. My handicap was in the 40s!

Pick: Wakefield -24 4pts @ 1.91 Ladbrokes and Stan James

 
Barrow v Wigan



5th April 15:00 GMT

Barrow are my team but I will be very surprised in they remain competitve throughout this one. They have improved significantly since last year but shipped 50+pts to Wakefield at this stage last season and the gap is too big. Wigan put a bigger margin on Salford and Salford would be too strong for Barrow. 34 was my mark.

Pick: Wigan -22 4pts @ 1.91 Totesport, Victor Chandler


Keighley v Castleford



5th April 15:00 GMT

The layers simply haven't a clue of the difference between divisions. Too strong, too fast. I know I'm repetitive but it's true. Full time athletes against part-timers, there's only one outcome. Keighley have been beaten by Blackpool and Swinton this season. Say no more. Cas have beaten Wigan, Bradford and Hull. Again my handicap was in the 40s.

Pick: Castleford -28 4pts @ 1.91 with Totesport
