Boxing Day 2019 Betting Preview PT 1

Widely-considered to be the best day of sport and punting each year in the UK, the final Boxing Day of the 2010s promises to be another interesting iteration and Bet365 is offering up some of the best odds and a really exciting bonus for new players. 

There’s no place better to wager on all the Boxing Day action than bet365, with a fantastic Open Account Offer available to new customers. Up to £100 in Bet Credits for new customers at bet365. Min deposit £5. Bet Credits available for use upon settlement of bets to value of qualifying deposit. Min odds, bet and payment method exclusions apply. Returns exclude Bet Credits stake. Time limits and T&Cs apply.

You can expect that to sweeten up the excellent selection of fixtures and races that will be unfolding that day and most punters will definitely have their eye on the stellar card that is set to run at Kempton the 26th with the King George VI Stakes likely to offer up a few great betting opportunities. 

Widely-viewed as one of the key preps ahead of the Cheltenham Gold Cup, there are going to be some really solid selections running in this one even if we just saw the withdrawl of Altior from contention for this race. 

After pulling off an impressive victory last time out, it appears as though Cyrname is going to be the favourite heading into this big Grade 1 contest and you’ll find him available at a best price of around 15/8. That’s lukewarm for a King George winner and you get the feeling that there will be more than a few punters looking to take on that price. 

There are two others trading at single digit prices and you’ll find that Lostintranslation is looming as the second favourite with a competitive price of around 11/5. There will definitely be some more swings in the wagering during the build-up to the contest and there is chance that with a great pre-race appearance he could wind up going off as the outright favourite.
