Epsom Oaks Betting Odds Headed By Sariska After Final Declarations
Wednesday 03 June 2009 at 12:26
Ten horses are set to contest the Epsom Oaks on Friday and Sariska is likely to start as favourite but there are still two more horses that could replace Sariska as market leader.
Sariska Looks Solid Bet To Land Oaks
Sariska, the current favourite trained by Michael Bell, is rated a 5/2 shot by bookies and can be backed at best price with Bet365, Blue Square, SkyBet, Ladbrokes and William Hill. Sariska has shown great versatility in regards to trip and ground this season and should improve further for the step up to a mile and a half. She should be very hard to beat on Friday.
Rainbow View Looking To Get Back On Track
There has been money for Rainbow View this week, who flopped in the 1000 Guineas when 8/11 favourite. She ran on well that day and this trip could be more to her liking so it is no surprise she is pushing for favouritism
Midday Holds A Decent Chance
Midday, very easy winner of the Oaks Trial at Lingfield , could still start as favourite and can be backed at 4/1 to win the Epsom Oaks with William Hill. Midday is a little more exposed than some of her rivals but her latest romp suggests she is still improving so she could still have her say on Friday.
Phillipina Expected To Improve From Chester Run
Phillipina and Perfect Truth are very closely matched on Chester form where they finished within a short head of each other and they are 7/1 with Bet365 and Paddy Power and 9/1 with Stan James and William Hill respectively. Perfect Truth beat Phillipina on that occasion but Phillipina is expected to reverse form over this course and distance.
