At Trizone we have been suggesting this week that David Dellow is a possible wildcard for a podium. We have just looked up the latest odds on www.sportingbet.com.au and here they are with one more sleep to go.
David Dellow is equal 5th favourite with Pete Jacobs second favourite behind Craig Alexander. Chris McCormack is 4th on the odds with Andreas Raelert 3rd.
In the women’s race Caroline Steffen is the obvious favourite with Leanda Cave 2nd equal with Mirinda Carfrae. Kelly Williamson is a long shot. If you were going to put money on an outsider Australia’s Rebekah Keat is one to watch at $26.
