Baby Grace? Odds slashed on Royal Baby name after flurry of bets
Published:Nobody knows the name of the new RoyalBaby. But that hasn’t stopped regal punters latching onto several popularchoices, with Grace the latest to attract significant support.
Having been installed as a 33/1 shot in January, we can now reveal that ‘Grace’ is the second-most popular pick behind only Diana at 6/1.
And that’s forced our traders to cut odds on the name to just 8/1 (from 12/1 on Easter Monday), making it the third-most likely option in the betting.
Elizabeth still leads the way at the head of the market at 5/1, while 12/1 shot Albert is rated the most likely name if the baby is a boy.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: “Punters are convinced Harry and Meghan are having a girl and all the money right now is going on ‘Grace’ in the baby name betting.”
