Is K-A Payne favourite because she's the best?  Or just because of patriotic money distorting the odds?

I seem to remember her coming fourth in an event that was on the TV earlier this year.  No idea which though.

Anyone got any knowledge of this event?

Hopefully she can get away so the others won't be pulling her feet

she won't make it hard for you to follow, normally gets on the front and leads so you will know where you stand

Have no idea about this event but the fav has gone from 2.5 to 1.8 already despite everyone still bunched up. 'Expert' saying its unusually closely bunched even 1/4 way through  Have laid at 1.8

from what i've seen of these it usually comes to down to a sprint over the last 200 metres. it doesn't really get strung out like you might expect over such a long distance

Laying a favourite who should be 2/1 ish at 1.8 this early when all her rivals are still there seems logical to me. She has since went  above evens. Her interview tape to me sounded downbeat and disclosed soome problems with her preparation.

I can't swim for toffee, I would have drowned after 10 minutes.

In fairness to KAP, I get the idea from her interviews that she really doesn't like doing this either. Reckon if she gets gold here, she may jack it in and look for a career in television instead.  Though if I'm honest, I'm not sure that two hours sitting alongside Matt Baker would be any less mind-numbing!

She's had a lot of injuries in the past 12 months, so she's probably not going to be in the best shape she's ever been in.

There are some events in the Olympics where you've got to say fairplay to all of them, this event is brutal, I hope they all walk around as a group and take the deserved applause afterwards.
