FESTIVAL MARKET MOVES
Picture Baracouda - could go off odds-on.

NICHOLLS CHARGE SLASHED

By

Coral slashed the odds on L'Ange Au Ciel winning the Grand Annual to 5/1 from 13/2 on Wednesday after substantial ante-post support.

Trainer Paul Nicholls has reportedly named L'Ange Au Ciel as his best bet of the meeting and Coral took more than £20,000 pounds in hundreds of bets on the horse during the morning.

Coral also cut Baracouda to even money from 5/4 for the World Hurdle with 9/2 second favourite, Rule Supreme, looking increasingly likely to bypass the race in favour of a tilt at the Gold Cup.

Coral spokesman Simon Clare said: "Baracouda looks certain to be the betting public's banker bet for the Cheltenham Festival and he could well go off odds-on come Thursday."
