Punters Start Betting On Britain’s Got Talent

While the latest season of Britain’s Got Talent is just a few weeks old, already some strong favourites are emerging at the bookmakers.

After initially coming in as second favourites at 5/1, the Missing People’s Choir received huge backing from punters and are now favourites at bookmakers such as Bet365, William Hill and Betfred with odds of around 3/1. As a result, the early favourite singer Sarah Ikumu who received Simon Cowell’s golden buzzer has been pushed into second place with odds of around 4/1.

A long way behind are girl band The Miss Treats at 9/1, but at some bookmakers Alesha Dixon’s golden buzzer dance act Just Us have become third favourites at 8/1. Also performing well are singer Reuben Gray and the magician Issy Simpson who are both at 10/1 to win the competition.
