Coral unveil New Year racing specials

Veteran jump jockey Andrew Thornton is 4-6 with Coral to ride his 1,000th winner in 2016, while 20 times champion AP McCoy is 10-1 to ride in two or more races under rules next year, as the firm unveiled their special bets for the year ahead.

Other markets include 5-2 that Frankel sires a Royal Ascot winner, and 125-1 that former Olympic champion Victoria Pendleton wins the Cheltenham Festival Foxhunter Chase, a race she is now 4-1 to take part in.

“The odds suggest Andrew Thornton will join the exclusive ‘1,000 winner’ club in 2016, that Victoria Pendleton has a decent chance of lining up at the Cheltenham Festival, and that we may not yet have seen the last of AP in the saddle!” said Coral’s David Stevens.
