Punters Back Whitmore For Strictly Success

Since pricing up Strictly Come Dancing on Tuesday, we can report that all the money so far has been for Laura Whitmore as she bids to become the first Irish winner of the hit BBC dancing show.

The Wicklow native is 7/1 to win the show with gymnast Claudia Fragapane currently heading the betting at 9/4.

Although, judging by the early support coming in for Laura Whitmore, she could soon jump to the head of the betting as a serious contender to win.

Singer Will Young is priced at 4/1 alongside Hollyoaks actor Danny Mac.

Athlete Greg Rutherford can be backed at 8/1 with Louise Redknapp priced at 12/1. Outsiders to win are Judge Rinder, politician Ed Balls and actress Lesley Joseph who are all priced at 50/1 to win the Glitterball trophy.
