The price and the valueThe prices turn into 24% for MOQ, 26% for the draw and 50% for SCR once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. That is a firm lean toward Sporting Cristal, so the question is whether the form backs the price or quietly argues against it. Our call sits at 1.63, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.
