Laughing Horse

Laugh yourself horse with Curio's form guide on who will be this year's top comedians.

With over 2, 000 performers under starter’s orders at Edinburgh’s Fringe this year, predicting who will romp home and win the public’s acclaim is no easy task.  With the going soft to firm (depending on how much alcohol was drunk the night before), Curiofestival takes a look at the field lining up for the comedy race of the season.

There is also the small matter of the winner’s purse. Don’t underestimate the fragile ego of the stand-up comic. Each year tears of joy and bitterness are shed in equal measure as performers fall at the final furlong or taste victory at the finish wire.

CurioFestival heads for the track to seek the best bets to back. Curio reveals who he believes will be this year’s fine young fillies, comedy colts and also-rans. Read the opinions and views, as gleaned from around the comedy circuit, by your favourite comedy pundit, Curio.
