Ladbrokes (free £25 bet) is reporting that the Biggest market move of the day: COUSIN VINNY into 8/1 (from 12s) in the Champion Bumper
David Williams of Ladbrokes said: "It was a matter of time before the money came for a Willie Mullins Bumper horse and it's poured in for Cousin Vinny. The price is collapsing and the Irish horse has got all the momentum"
Also at the Festival, HARCHIBALD 6/1 (from 7s - Champion Hurdle); KHYBER KIM now 6/1 joint fav (from 7s - Supreme Novs) and NOLAND hardens to 11/4 (from 3s fav - Arkle)
David Williams of Ladbrokes said: "Harchibald is being backed as if he's better than ever. We weren't initially moved by his Dundalk win but the money has now forced us to move!"
On the Wednesday, FIVEFORTHREE is backed into 16/1 (from 25s) for the Ballymore as connections keep their options open
David Williams of Ladbrokes said: "Fiveforthree in the Supreme is the worst result in our Festival book, so if connections opt for the Ballymore, we'll be mightily relieved"
LEG SPINNER clear 5/1 fav for the Coral Cup (from 6s): "It's been 48 hours of proper support for Leg Spinner and others in the race are being overlooked" said Williams
Favourite MOSSBANK trimmed to 7/2 (from 4s) for the Ryanair and on the same day DON'T PUSH IT rapidly turning into a good thing for the Racing Post Plate - 4/1 (from 5s)
David Williams of Ladbrokes said: "Don't Push It has all but monopolised the attention of punters in the Racing Post Plate. Anything else in the race would do the bookies quite nicely"
In the Pertemps, favourite BACKBORD is 6/1 (from 8s) whilst second in ROBIN DU BOIS is trimmed to 7s (from 8s)
And on the Friday: co-favs of three in the Albert Bartlett as THE TOTHER ONE 5s (from 6) joins GONE TO LUNCH and CARRUTHERD as market leader
MY PETRA 6 from 7 in the Grand Annual and CROZAN 10 from 12 in same race
COUNTY ZEN a 12/1 shot (from 14) in the County Hurdle
