OLBG Expert Insight

What the expert says...
Andrew Miller is the clear favourite heading into the final weeks, and the early move to 2/1 suggests the betting market is reacting to strong support from critics and insiders. However, don’t discount Kiran Desai as previous winners returning with new work often catch the eye of the judges. It’s shaping up to be a close finish.
