WILL MICHAEL OWEN SCORE MORE GOALS THAN HE GETS WINNERS ?
HIGH PROFILE racehorse owner and Manchester United striker Michael Owen has been made a 4/7 chance by William Hill to score more goals in the Premiership than he owns winners on the racetrack for the duration of the new Premiership season. Hills make him 7/4 to have more winners than Premiership goals and 4/1 to produce an equal number of each. ‘For the purposes of this bet only horses running under the Owen Promotions Limited banner will count’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
AND HILLS HAVE ALSO INTRODUCED A ‘WHAT WILL OWEN DO FIRST DURING THE PREMIERSHIP SEASON?’ MARKET, offering 1/2 that he scores a Premiership goal first; 6/4 that he has a winner under the Owen Promotions Ltd name first and 7/1 that he receives an England squad call up first. ‘Owen has always been a thoroughbred as a footballer and he’ll be fancied to score if he makes his United Premiership debut against Birmingham in the opening match, but he’ll also be keen to get his new racing venture off to a winning start, and it could be a close run thing’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
**ABOVE BETS RUN FROM SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 2009 UNTIL FINAL DAY OF PREM SEASON.
