Price disparity on Cheltenham races

[droffats]

Just looking on Hills website at Cheltenham NRMB. In the Browns Advisory Bob Olinger is 6/4 whilst with the ordinary market on Oddschecker Bob Olinger is 20/1 ante post. How do they come to be 6/4 bizarre and why such a big disparity. I think if Bob Olinger went for the Browns he would be about 3/1 if they all turned up anyway

The “if” in your final sentence answers your own question for you.

NRNB isn’t really ante-post betting, but there’s no Rule 4 protection for bookmakers either and the four-day Festival has led to multiple entry options for many runners and races can cut up.

The bookmakers aren’t taking any chances.
