    They are about due a Henry or Richard but they may go for James again.  I doubt Wally Windsor will be considered.

    Ferdinand at 80/1 is way unders along with Leopold at 100/1. My dog is called Stanley and he was greatly offended to see the 150/1 on offer.

    I told my kids that a little known fact about Prince William is that he is a Hawks fan, therefore they had named the lad Cyril...

     

    They didn't believe me somehow.

    If he's a Hawks fan he could name him Lance. Then he will have a little 'Buddy' of his very own ;)

    Bookie Pays Out Early on Royal Baby

    It’s a Girl! Bookie Pays Out Early on Royal Baby

    With the Duchess of Cambridge allegedly spilling the beans that she is having a daughter, online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au has paid out early on all bets placed on the sex of the royal baby being a girl.

    After the story broke that she may have jumped the gun and revealed the sex of the baby, punters were quick to jump on board, with a number of bets coming for the baby to be a girl in the last few hours.

    “Kate is usually pretty good at keeping a secret but it seems a bit of baby brain has struck here, and it is enough to convince us that the third in line for the crown will be a girl!” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

    With the early payout, the market on the sex of the baby has been closed.

    --ends--

    They have a name for the Royal baby, they are going to call him Stuart Broad until he learns to walk.

    I saw a photo of a Ladbrokes betting board in England just prior to the birth. They had 2/5 a girl and 7/4 a boy. How any punter who understands value wasn't taking the 7/4 I don't know.At the end of the day you are getting 7/4 about a genuine even money chance.

    And, no, I didn't back it. I don't have an account with Ladbrokes, and if I did, they would probably have barred me just for making the phone call.

    Bugger always the way - Ya get the first leg up at good odds then the second leg doesn't even run a place ...bookies got it right with George at 7/4

     word has it that the Tri of Geo, Alex and Louie paid    2 crown, 1 florin and thruppence ha'penny - not bad odds for a farthing !!

    Excellent work Raconteur. That effort is worth every shilling... to coin a phrase.

    The Sun stole my line. I expect a commission for it...and  a royal commission into it.
