Cadel Evans Remains 2012 Tour De France Betting Favourite

With less than a month until the 2012 Tour de France, Cadel Evans remains favourite with leading online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au, priced at $2.70.

Brit Brad Wiggins is looming as his biggest threat though, firming from $6.00 into $3.25.

Andy Schleck ($4.33 out to $6.50) and Russian Denis Menchov ($8.00 out to $13) have drifted in betting.

“Cadel rightly remains favourite and has attracted a lot of the punters interest but money has started to come for Brad Wiggins,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.

Vincenzo Nibali has been a big mover in the market, firming from $34 into $21 while the likes of Andreas Kloden ($67), Frank Schleck ($81) and Levi Leipheimer ($81) have all eased.

Australian Richie Porte remains a distinct outsider at $201.
