BEST of the BETS

You can have EVS on a restart on or before 1st June.

No professional sport in England (even behind closed doors) before 1st June. Still, it’s tricky if you are betting on this market as it says “racing to resume ON or before 1st June”.

Current prices - NO (1.83), YES (2.20)

Lots of activity in this market now. YES trading at around 3/5,

They are taking all prices, 2/5 now

Very volatile right now.

Big change in prices following BHA’s press release, Yes is now 1.58.

The market has settled on 3/5. This suggests that the BHA will have everything in place for 1st June and then when the Govt says go they can just start.

Hope people remain sensible and considerate in the next few weeks so the country can start returning to some sort of normality. Fear that with scenes like on the tube yesterday (conscious I’ve only seen a few pics in the press), we’ll end up in a much longer lockdown and sport etc will be delayed further.
