The trading teams are confident ahead of day two with a combined 25.9 points profit on Tuesday
It's Betfred that lead the way after the opening day on a huge 63 points, with William Hill hot on their tales on 35 points. Aside from the daily allocation of 10 points, the vast majority of bookmakers have a significant proportion of their ante-post points resting on this afternoon's action. Even at such an early stage in proceedings, the Coral Cup could be an incredibly important race in the hunt for the title, with all but two bookies having a fancy. Remarkably, only Tully East has been picked by more than one of those teams. Can Betfred keep hold of their lead?
Trading teams across the country had a 20 point allowance to spend on ante-post selections and are now required to assign a further 10 points on minimum two horses per day. Minimum bet of 1 point, maximum 5 points. The best-price is taken from Oddschecker at the time each team sends through their picks, with place terms of the best-price bookmaker used.
