The Original Specials event has now had it imo.

The potential gold mine has turned to tin, with only a couple of books up. (Although 365 and Paddies did take a couple of bets then ran off as they sh@t themselves with fear)

The odds now are in line with the punters support and it hasn't taken much to reduce the Philippines from 20s and 16s to a deserved 2nd fav.
A few years ago when the place odds were 1/4 first 5, Miss Indonesia would of been worth a good bet to place.

Miss France could surprise but for me the action lies with the Philippino t@rt at the original place odds.

Brazil, Ghana, Ukraine and Italy should also be somewhere in the mix.

Agree banksy. Very disappointing, feeble effort both by BF & the high st. The ew odds seem to be squeezed more & more on all tv betting events.

Agree with your analysis too. Miss Philippines was great value at double fig odds, & looks to hold a great chance. You'd expect Miss Indonesia to make the top 10 or top 5 what with it being the host this year - they often like to offer the host a good result.

Also think Miss France is a very lively outsider & might have been a good value bet for a top 5 finish, if the odds were available.

Some of the more obscure bookies have also priced it up - Unibet and 188bet to name but 2. It is live tomorrow on the E entertainment channel. BF could easily have generated a market over the last couple of months if they flagged it up on its home page, & gave it some fanfare.

Evening Johnny, to be fair there was a market up by betfair last year which attracted the gross sum of about two farthings.

Also, the MW Org hasn't aided the cause by 'selling' a couple of titles to China in the last few years.

Maybe a bondage or pneumatic power tool eliminator round (like the Benny Benassi vid) might stoke up the interest and labido of those impotent odds makers.

Can someone put up a tissue rating for each? 1 (might as well use it to blow my nose) to 5 (blimey nearly blinded myself) will do. Thanks.

well done banksy. A great pick. The more I looked at this, the more I thought Miss Philippines was a good thing. France 2nd - had some ew on her as well.
