Grand National Favourites

3 runners are competing for favouritism for the 2009 Grand National

Saturday morning has seen enormous volumes of bets placed on the 2009 Grand National which starts in less than 4 hours.

As we move towards the big race bookmakers are moving towards consensus on which runner will be favourite. The early betting indications on the Grand National Favourite is that Butler's Cabin will go to post the favourite for this year's Grand National.

Speaking to Grand National Pro earlier this morning Neal Wilkins, for Victor Chandler told us that “The public have really got behind Tony McCoy in his attempt to win the National for the first time at the fourteenth attempt and having laid his mount Butler’s Cabin to lose over £200,000 at 9/1 he is currently our market leader at 8/1 usurping Ruby Walsh’s mount My Will who we have pushed out from 8/1 to 9/1.”

“ We top offered Rambling Minster at 12/1 this morning and he has attracted a flood of money and is now trading at 9/1 while lively outsiders include Battlecry, 50/1 into 40/1 including a bet of £100,000 to £2,000 each way and Offshore Account, 33/1 into 22/1.  If we are in a credit crunch it is not being reflected by the betting patterns this morning!”

Latest Odds for the Grand National at Chandlers
8/1 Butler’s Cabin, 9/1 Rambling Minster & My Will, 12/1 Black Apalachi and State Of Play, 16/1 Comply or Die & Parson’s Legacy, 20/1 bar.
