Spreadwise: Harrington sell looks cast-iron.Byline: JEREMY CHAPMANBY cornering the market with top prices about all five favourites, Spreadex can expect a flood of interest from sellers on German Masters finishing positions today. Colin Montgomerie Colin Stuart Montgomerie, OBE (born June 23, 1963) is a Scottish professional golfer often referred to by his nickname 'Monty'. He has had one of the finest careers in European Tour history, having won a record eight Order of Merit titles including a streak of seven consecutively supporters cannot hope to see much of the 22 as buyers can technically trade at 19 with Cantor, but you should be able to get some 20 for Padraig Harrington. There is no arb arb See arbitrageur. there even though Sporting and Cantor are three points shorter and if you took a straw poll straw poll or vote Noun an unofficial poll or vote taken to find out the opinion of a group or the public on some issue Noun 1. in the Gut Larchenhof clubhouse in Cologne, you would not find one judge - player or spectator - who believes the Dubliner can finish outside the top 20.

Yet to finish lower than joint eighth at Gut Larchenhof, he bowed the knee only to Sergio Garcia in a play-off two years ago and would have fancied his chances of improving on third place last year when a deluge flooded the course and knocked out the final round. As No. 1 on tour on scoring average (69.42) and greens in regulation (77.7), the only flaw on Harrington's CV is his failure to win more often. It is hard to believe he has not won this year when players not in the same class have done so, but victory is not a pre- requisite for a successful sell. Punters who have sold Harrington's finish all year must be healthily in profit.

The Australian is favourite, but justifiably so as he has achieved more and the big plus for Scott is that he finished sixth in Cologne 12 months ago. Only world-class winners finished ahead of him then, and he has come on a bundle since, though has still to master the art of cashing in on a winning position. Judging from his 11th-place Lancome finish, Scott has his game in good nick. Paul McGinley Paul McGinley (born December 16, 1966) is an Irish golfer who plays on the European Tour.
