Ascot racecourse plays host to the eleventh Shergar Cup on Saturday and the betting odds have Europe as the 7/4 favourites to lift the trophy with Bet 365 and Ladbrokes.
Ireland Challenging Europe For Shergar Cup Favouritism
The team of jockeys from Ireland are challenging Europe at the head of the market for the Shergar Cup and bookmakers Ladbrokes and Bet 365 make Ireland 2/1 second favourites on Saturday.
There will be six races counting in the Shergar Cup with ten runners in each race. Each horse is ridden by a jockey from one for the four teams – Europe, Ireland, Great Britain or the Rest Of The World and over the meeting of six races each team rides fifteen times.
Great Britain and Rest Of World Make Up Teams In 2010 Shergar Cup
Great Britain have Hayley Turner, Jim Crowley and Alan Munro representing them and this team are best priced at 4/1 with Bet 365 to win the Shergar Cup.
The Rest Of The World are represented by three world class jockeys but all three have never ridden at Ascot before and hence this team is made the outsider of the four at 9/2 with Ladbrokes and Bet 365.
Richard Hughes Favourite To Be Top Jockey in Shergar Cup 2010
Ireland Captain Richard Hughes is the 7/2 favourite with Ladbrokes and Bet 365 to be the top jockey in the Shergar Cup and with each jockey receiving five rides and the points system being 15 points for a win, 10 points for a second, 7 points for a third, 5 points for a fourth and 3 points for a fifth, Hughes must have a great chance as he has balloted a great book of rides.
Olivier Peslier is the second favourite is this market at 4/1 with Bet 365.
