Punter lands £77k after backing 150-1 and 125-1 winners in Lingfield acca
A punter has netted a five-figure windfall after backing three out of four winners in a sensational accumulator bet, two of which came in at monster odds.
The William Hill customer from Manchester staked a total of £3 for a Lucky 15 which comprised four horses running over jumps at Lingfield on Tuesday. With two of the selections available at treble-figure prices, the chances of collecting appeared slim.
But not only did three of the four horses which were picked win, two of them went in at extraordinary prices of 150-1 and 125-1. The other was an 18-1 winner.
The punter struck in the first race at Lingfield when 150-1 chance Ask Her Out, who was making her debut, became trainer Richard Rowe’s first winner in seven months when landing the Weatherbys & Birdie Calendars Open National Hunt Flat Race by a neck.
In the following race, the punter’s next selection Celtic Art struck at 18-1 by winning the John & Paddy Sheehan Memorial Handicap Hurdle by half a length.
