THIS is the brilliant moment a York racegoer won more than £28,000 – but one punter couldn’t look less impressed.
Claire Alexander had a go on the Tote Placepot on day one of the Dante meeting.
The Tote punter goes wild after landing her £28,000 winner, but the bloke on the right didn’t appear to have quite so much luck
York racegoer Claire celebrates winning £28,000 thanks to the Tote Placepot
That’s a bet where you pick one horse or more to place in each race.
And with a load of favourites – including big Musidora hope 8-11 fav Friendly Soul finishing last – struggling, the dividend went up and up and up.
Lee Westwood was responsible for one of the massive outsiders coming in courtesy of his 40-1 winner Diligent Resdev.
While Secret Satire won at 22-1 and Aleezdancer claimed an incident-packed race at 14-1.
The total Placepot fund had hit £216,618.53 by the off and with just a few winning units it meant those who correctly picked a horse to place in the first six races won a dividend of £28,767.40.
A pretty good return for Claire’s £32 stake.
A video posted by the Tote showed her roaring on 7-1 King Of Light in the final race to scoop the prize.
The beauty of the bet means you don’t need to find the winner, just one who comes in the places.
Although to her credit, Claire did manage to somehow find five of the six winners.
She rightly jumped for joy as she realised her final selection had placed – although a fellow punter clearly wasn’t having the same luck.
The camera caught him appearing to have a face like thunder as Claire celebrated her giant winnings.
