Denman heads 20 horses in the Hennessy Gold Cup and totesport have shortened him at the head of the market at 7/2 (from 4/1).
Champion trainer Paul Nicholls has also left in Neptune Collonges, Taranis, The Tother One and Niche Market but it is Weird Al who is likely to be Denman’s main rival in the market and Ian Williams’ gelding is currently a 5/1 shot.
‘After big-race victories for Kauto Star and Imperial Commander in recent weeks, the spotlight is now on Denman as he aims to win the Hennessy for an historic third time and we’re bracing ourselves for a wholesale gamble similar to the one seen twelve months ago,’ said totesport spokesman George Primarolo.
