An Belfast punter so nearly took Sean Graham bookmakers for 30 big ones last Tuesday.
The big question is, did the punter pick these three horses, or did he get some cracking tips? Make your own mind up...
He did two different bets on the day with the same three horses on them.
First bet was 2 x £50 each-way wins and a £100 straight win, and the second was 3 x £10 each-way doubles and 1 x £10 each-way treble – an outlay of £380.
The first horse was Tyup Pompey in the 2.50 at Ludlow and it was well-backed before the off and won comfortably at 20/1 – our punter had just pocketed a grand.
His next horse didn’t run until the evening meeting at Kempton and Hey Presto (6.20) obliged by a head, again at 20/1; not only had our punter won another £5,660, but he was now on the sweat of his life.
He had just picked two 20/1 winners, had banked almost seven grand and had a small fortune riding on his remaining selection.
His next pick, NICE WEE GIRL, was well backed and went off the 7/2 jolly. Our punter’s luck ran out as his selection could only manage second – absolutely gutting for the punter who stood to win over 20 grand on the £10 each-way treble alone.
Counting his doubles up and the £100 win he had on Nice Wee Girl, he stood to win close to 30 grand.
To rub salt into the wounds, Nice Wee Girl turned up at Wolverhampton on Friday night and won after again being well-backed. I wonder if our punter was on?
Let’s hope so.
