Special Needs

Specials betting, in particular singing competitions, is around the most profitable forms of betting if you're looking at the right factors(usually anything but the singing ) so its time to give it the RTR treatment. Might not last too long as it'll be all in on odds against shots every time but you never know.

Off to look at tomorrow nights offerings, namely Fame Academy(Comic Relief) and the Melodifestivalen(Swedish Eurovision.)

Re: Special Needs

Call it a £75 bank then. Right, I'll kick off with £14 on Colin Murray @ 14/1 for Celeb Fame Academy as thats all the sods at Stan James will allow me.

Then onto the Swedish sings offs tomorrow night.

The Swedes love their big ballads and euro pop and I'll back them to go with it again.

Its a knockout system which is a bit annoying as my two fancies in group 1 face each other in the first round, but the winner should be able to take care of Group favourite Jessica Andersson. First off Jimmy Jansson is the only male in group 1 and has a nice upbeat number to go with, and Sanna Nielson has a similar song to Mans Zelmerlow's Cara Mia which already qualified to the final. Same sound, same choreography, same structure...same result? Hopefully...

£29 Jimmy Jansson @ 3.4 (Unmatched)
£21 Sanna Nielson @ 4.2 (Unmatched)

In group 2 Nanne has a big billing after being beaten to the 2005 selection through a jury vote, but she failed to qualift straight into the final this year and so needs this second chance contest. Its not getting the votes it needs and looks maybe a little vulnerable, so I'll oppose it with the Sonja Alden song that it should face in the final.

£10 Sonja Alden @ 3.7

Re: Special Needs

£20 on Angelica Bell to leave Fame Academy tonight @ 2.34(reasoning in thread.) Not the price I was looking for but I reckon she's a gonner.

Re: Special Needs

Apart from Stubbsy you mean MyDog...surely?

It's Melodifestivalen night tonight and The Ark are red hot favourites to win. I'm not sure...not as sure as the market seems to be anyway. As mentioned the Swedes love their bog standard Europop and Mans Zelmerlow's Cara Mia fits the bill a little better.

£20 @ 6.4 for me(unmatched at the mo).
