Turkson was now essentially a co-favorite along with Archbishop Angelo Scola (Italy).  Brazil Cardinal Odilo Scherer was seeing slightly longer odds during Day 2:  5/1 compared to 4/1 yesterday.

Cardinal Christoph Schonborn of Austria was now coming in at 6/1 odds.  Gambling911.com had reported last week that Schonborn was seeing the most betting action at Sportsbook.com.

Cardinal Marc Ouellet (Canada) was now at 7/1 odds while Cardinal Sean O'Malley (United States) had odds of 10/1.
