The betting for the Cambridgeshire Handicap at Newmarket on Saturday revolves around Harry and Roger Charlton’s improving three-year-old Greek Order, who could well be the only horse in a 34-strong field to set off at single-figure odds.
The recent history of this historic handicap is littered with market leaders with similar profiles that came up short, however, and the last six runnings have featured winners at 50-1, 40-1 and two at 25-1, with Lord North, a subsequent Group One winner, the only favourite to reward his backers.
