So, Sanya went from a -130 favorite to a -150 favorite over Shelly-Ann? If so, then that’s something you should like VERY MUCH! Remember the line is influenced by the trends of the bettors and moves in the line close to competition time are expected. I’m sure the majority of bettors are thinking they just saw Sanya beat Shelly-Ann in the semi’s so surely she can do it again in the finals. This just means you get a better payout by betting on Shelly-Ann.
I’m still afraid of Sonya 400m strength, if the race is close she will win. With the strength of Felix and Sonya they always have a chance esp against athletes who hate running the 200m.
Doesn’t matter - today the public will win… After seeing the 2 athletes race lastnight - I don’t see Ross beating Sonya today unless she’s eating some good old Jam yams and seeing the voodoo priest…
After doing quick research I like your 1-3. Chris short distance speed (60-100m) is better and his 200m sb/pr are better/current. The only bad thing is - the races are not won on paper. I think Wallace exp will help him edge the young buck for bronze…
I am not sure whether to bank on Lemaitre or Spearmon. Wasn’t that impressed with the first 120 of Lemaitre (and he looked annoyed when he finished), but on the reverse side his last 80 look okay, so if he improves even coming off the bend he could take 3rd.
There’s no way LeMaitre is getting bronze with his lane draw, he got stuck in 2. Not when there’s 4 people that are so close to each other in terms of the form they’re in.
