Friday's market moves

Taylor: Big favourite.

The second round of the Las Vegas Desert Classic gets under way later today and Sky Bet are offering 6/4 for Phil Taylor, Terry Jenkins and Mervyn King all to win.

The highlight of Friday's second round matches sees Taylor taking on Dennis Priestley. Taylor made a great start in his bid for a fourth Desert Classic title with a 6-4 win over Kevin Painter in the first round, averaging 108, and it's 1/12 for Taylor to see off Priestley (6/1).

King, who beat world champion John Part 6-4 in his first round match, is 2/7 to beat American Darin Young (5/2) and world number five Jenkins is 4/7 to overcome Roland Scholten (5/4).

All Blacks odds-on

The annual Tri-Nations competition gets under way this Saturday when New Zealand take on South Africa, live on Sky Sports 1 from 8.30am.

The All Blacks' record speaks for itself in this competition; they have won it eight times in the 12 years it has taken place and have only lost 15 of their 50 matches.

Sky Bet are offering 4/5 for the All Blacks to make it four wins in a row and 2/5 for them to get off to a winning start against the Springboks.

Sky Bet are also offering a market on which player will be the top points scorer in the tournament.

New Zealand's Dan Carter is currently third in the all-time points scorers table in the Tri-Nations with 230 points. It's 4/6 for the New Zealand fly-half to accumulate most points, with South Africa's Francois Steyn second favourite at 12/5 and Australia's Matt Giteau available at 7/2.
