Do American know nothing about track? Some of the odds are ridiculous.
Kipsang +400, Tim + 600, Katir + 1800, Wightman, Kerr, Hoare all +2000 ??? How can Kipsang be such a strong favorite over Wightman, who smoked him when they raced a month ago? And has nobody told them that Katir is off the juice? They had similar odds last year for Kerr, when everybody knew he was a major medal threat.
And Bryce Hoppel is a bigger favorite for the 800 than Aprop apparently. I'll eat my hat if Hoppel finishes ahead of Aprop.
the odds available from the UK bookies (those that are offering them, anyway). Some interesting ones in there, for sure
(by 'interesting', I mean ridiculous)

The implied odds (current -225, +500, +500)of the first three (Jakob 70%, Kipsang 16%, and TimC 16%) already exceeds 100% so it is tough to find value when the hold is really high, but if there is any it seems it would be anywhere but Jakob. Also these markets are so small (250 max) so can be pretty heavily influenced by any action they do get.
