Surely the odds are now 49 - 1 the field?
 
All the semi-finalists are there because they are good players and some have eliminated top class opposition along the way.
 
Apart from me of course. I'm there through the charitable acts of others, who sacrificed their own chances to let me through. (Grin).

Nathan - it must be time for some odds, surely ?

To get the ball rolling here's a few quotes:

The strong favourite has to be Mr McZ - 10-1 on (or 100-1 against). 
After two solos it has to be one or the other ;-)

Not far behind is Guy Thomas - evens money - anyone who soloes 
against my team-mate Martin Sanders (who himself soloed in round 1) 
and deprives the Riders of the title has to be a real danger - I for 
one don't want to be drawn against him !

A not so dark horse, trying unsuccessfully to stay hidden in the 
pack - (the real) Toby - another evens money bet that frightens me !

Outsiders - everyone else ! Name your own odds ;-)
