Workforce All The Rage In King George 2011 Betting Odds And Tips
Wednesday 20 July 2011 at 10:37
Workforce had been a doubtful participant in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes just a week ago but the rain has come at the right time and he has now been backed into favouritism in the King George 2011 Betting Odds ahead of former odds on favourite St Nicholas Abbey in what could be the race of the season.
Workforce Leapfrogs St Nicholas Abbey In Betting
Workforce has been the horse everyone has wanted to back over the past week, he began the week at 7/2 but is now the hot favourite for the race being backed into best odds of just 7/4 with Paddy Power and Coral. Workforce flopped in this race last year when well fancied but punters don’t seem to worried about that at all and a win here would set him up nicely for his bid to retain the Arc De Triomphe, for which he is a 9/2 chance with SkyBet currently. It seems the most opposition on Saturday at Ascot could come from Aidan O’Brien’s St Nicholas Abbey, who won the Coronation Cup on his latest start, he was the odds on favourite for this race but has drifted out to 5/2 with Sportingbet which looks a huge price.
Rewilding Has Outstanding Form On Offer
This is far from a two horse race with the likes of Rewilding in the field, Rewilding beat So You Think in the Prince Of Wales Stakes at Ascot and then So You Think went on to beat Workforce in the Coral Eclipse at Sandown so Rewilding’s form looks exceptionally strong, especially as the step up to a mile and a half here should suit. Rewilding is available at 10/3 with William Hill and he could even be the best value bet out of the three favourites. Nathaniel has been supplemented for this race at a cost of £75,000 and the ground has come right for the most fancied three year old in the field, Nathaniel has a course and distance win to his name at Royal Ascot and is rated at 8/1 with Boylesports and Stan James.
