What the expert says...
Ireland are 1/10 to win this year's Prestbury Cup against Great Britain
The Prestbury Cup is awarded each year with Great Britain taking on Ireland in a battle for the most winners over the course of the four-day meeting.
Britain has not won the Prestbury Cup since way back in 2015 and bookmakers say there's a 12/1 chance of Britain beating Ireland in at the festival.
Ireland though are 1/10 favourites to have the most winners this year which looks like a certainty with those odds suggesting a 90% chance of it happening.
| 2024 Prestbury Cup Winner | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Ireland | 1/10 | 90.9% |
| Tie | 10/1 | 9.1% |
| Great Britain | 12/1 | 7.7% |
