If you’re the sort of person who likes to have a flutter, you’ve no doubt been checking form on the runners and riders for this year’s Mercury Prize.

And here, via William Hill, they currently are: Jamie xx – ‘In Colour’ (7/2) Wolf Alice – ‘My Love Is Cool’ (7/1) Eska – ‘Eska’ (8/1) Ghostpoet – ‘Shedding Skin’ (8/1) Aphex Twin – ‘Syro’ (12/1) SOAK – ‘Before We Forgot How To Dream’ (12/1) Slaves – ‘Are You Satisfied?’ Roisin Murphy – ‘Hairelss Toys’ (14/1) Gaz Coombes – ‘Matador’ (16/1) C Duncan – ‘Architect’ (20/1) Florence & the Machine – ‘How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful’ (20/1) It’s something of a mystery how these odds are come to – we can only presume the bookies have been hacking into the judges’ personal iClouds – but it makes for interesting reading. A fiver on Wolf Alice is far more likely to pay dividends than a fiver on Florence, for instance. Laptop soul and esoteric solo acts remain safe Mercury bets, while anyone looking to optimise their gambling potential is best advised to plump for a pony on Aphex Twin.

So we turned them into a Mercury 2015 drinking game, rules as follows: Lauren Laverne declares the vote “too close to call” – one finger Lauren Laverne claims that the shortlist proves that British music is “better than ever” – two fingerssupreme cdg hoodie retail price Lauren Laverne introduces an act as “really pushing the boundaries” – three fingershadouken hoodie Lauren Laverne, in one sentence, claims that British music is “better than ever” that the shortlisted acts are “really pushing the boundaries” and that the vote will undoubtedly be “too close to call” – triple Laverne whammy! fox sasquatch hoodies for mens
