VC Bet report that favourites Greece continue to attract support ahead of Saturday�s Eurovision Song Contest in Kiev.
�I�ve gone what I considered to be an industry lowest price at 2/1 but we are still laying the Greeks,� said the firm�s odds compiler Paul Moody.
�If support remains this strong I will have to cut them again.�
The Greeks were backed at a high of 12/1 at the beginning of April to send liabilities soaring above the £100k mark.
Malta and Hungary, along with the Greeks remain as VC Bet�s principal liabilities.
Interestingly, the UK�s entry sung by Javine has finally started to see support.
�Punters didn�t want to go near Javine for the first few weeks of trading but as the finals approach we are now seeing support for her at 40/1.
�I�m quite happy to remain at that price for a good while yet because I doubt that even if she popped out of her dress it would be enough for her to figure in the frame this year.�
