GB 2/5 to beat Beijing gold haul + Hoy 33/1 to claim four or more

Great Olympics For Hosts?

GREAT Britain is 2/5 to bag more gold medals in 2012 than they managed at the 2008 olympics.

And the bookies make GB 7/4 not to surpass the 19 they bagged in Beijing.

Ladbrokes spokesman, Nick Weinberg, said: "The hosts usually benefit from home support and it will be a major disappointment if GB falls short."

Cycling legend Sir Chris Hoy, who helped himself to three golds two years ago, is 33/1 for four olympic titles in east London.
