shoo-in

The correct spelling is shoo-in, usually with a hyphen. It has been known in that spelling and with the meaning of a certain winner from the 1930s. It came from horse racing, where a shoo-in was the winner of a rigged race.

In turn that seems to have come from the verb shoo, meaning to drive a person or an animal in a given direction by making noises or gestures

These day's the term is associated with short odd's favourites in any sport

shoo-wop

Pure perfection. Typically used in the 1950's and 60's referring to a type of dance usually used in songs of that time period. Now, however, a perfect band called the Arctic Monkeys also use the phrase "shoo-wop" in their music and it is literally an orgasim for your ears.
