The second series of the X Factor starts this weekend and bookmakers William Hill can report that punters think 'Team Osbourne' will walk away with the title this time round.
That said Hills are still reeling from Simon Cowell's success in the first series and despite the money for Sharon, Cowell is their 6/4 favourite. Sharon Osbourne is the 13/8 second favourite with Louis Walsh the 15/8 outsider.
"We have not even seen the auditions yet but punters have already got strong views on which Judge will win this time round. In the first series Sharon was the early favourite but the number 1 horse in stable 'Tabby' trailed off and she ended up being the first judge with no acts left.
For my money Simon Cowell is worth a few quid as, Dodgy trousers aside, he is as cunning as a fox and you write him off at your peril!" said Hills spokesman Rupert Adams
X Factor Winning Judge:
Simon Cowell 6/4,
