Punter pockets over €330,000 from small stake on ridiculous horse racing bet

A lucky punter is celebrating after pocketing more than €330,000 for a total stake of just over €8.

The William Hill customer placed a series of multiples on seven horses running at Southwell at morning prices – which included a winner at 150-1.

Three of the seven were beaten, but Schiaparannie at 8-1, Tiquer (25-1), Irish Sovereign (66-1) and the huge outsider Alchemystique all came home in front netting him €330,736

William Hill spokesperson Rupert Adams said: “It’s fair to say one punter had his crystal ball out this morning as he managed to pick winners at 8-1, 25-1, 66-1 and 150-1 over the jumps at Southwell!

“Having staked just £7 on multiples before racing got under way, the customer surely couldn’t have believed his luck when Irish Sovereign won the finale at 66-1 netting them £281,246.23 in the process.”

Selections:

Irish Sovereign (66/1) – WON

Tiquer (25/1) – WON

Schiaparannie (8/1) – WON

Silver Star (100/1) – LOST

Stunsail (25/1) – LOST

Alchemystique (150/1) – WON

Radetzky March (25/1) - LOST
