The institutional choice really appears to be Pete Buttigieg - the mayor of South Bend, Indiana - who has emerged as the fresh faced moderate who has siphoned up a lot of dollars and attention. Without a Buttigieg surge, we would likely still have Beto O’Rourke and Kamala Harris still in the mix.
Mayor Peter trades as the co-third-favourite alongside Bernie Sanders and both are priced around an 8/1 or 9/1 listing and it will be interesting to see how that all winds up working out over the next couple of weeks. Sanders is competitive in New Hampshire but Mayor Pete has rocketed to the top of the polls in Iowa and New Hampshire and if he is able to scoop both then he will be considered the prohibitive favourite for the nomination.
Things could get complicated for him in South Carolina, however, where Joe Biden has a lot of support from the disproportionately large African-American community that defines those primaries.
Elizabeth Warren is priced around a 10/1 margin while Michael Bloomberg can be backed around a 14/1 listing and Hillary Clinton herself trades at a 28/1 best price with several top bookmakers. Andrew Yang can be backed anywhere from 25/1 to 40/1.
