2008 Caboolture Grand Slam Scratch Doubles - Early Odds
These are ealry odds form Sportsbet, I'm sure these are to change before the event with some teams possibly drifitng out and some to come in.
With the drop out of the dream team "George & Brando", Drewy & Meadsy have sped in, to be the hot favourites to beat & are at nearly unbackable odds of $1.25.
There is great value at the moment for the all women team of Kellie & Cathy as well as Brent & Nathan at 25's + but look for this to really come in once punters start to look for a better dividend return.
Good value in Dale & Tony with the World Cup Champion with ex local Tony Hamilton at 9's but they should come in before start time.
Gold Coast pairing of Jase & Jim also still good at $5.50, the closest threats to the gnomes at this stage look to be Brad & Luke with the left & right combo looking to be pretty handy.
Outsiders who could factor may be Colin & Brendon with only pairing of 2 lefties but value at $15.00. Paul & Michael are sitting at 12's but may drift a little depending on Michael and his fitness. Punters may still be a little wary from his last start and could be a little cautious
Then they're are the boy toys of Jason & Darryl who could just about do anything on Sunday and definatley could FIRM before the weekend maybe in from 7's to sex's I mean 6's.
Also loook for Nathan & Andrew to shorten in from double figures but after a tough weekend in Gympie we'll see if Nathan is back on target sometime this week in league. Taya & Darrin also could drift or shorten in the market with good odds, punters waiting to see how Taya is after recently back form injury.
Latest odds will be posted in the early hours of Sunday morning with some bowlers having a hit out on Saturday in the Handicap Grand Slam. Feel free to post your own odds maybe Kellie & Jase will start up a Vbookie on this . . . .
