A bettor has successfully transformed a £10 wager into a whopping £47,351.56 by placing a six horse accumulator bet with just one winning selection. The lucky customer of William Hill selected horses for an each-way sixfold at Cheltenham, Doncaster, and Newbury races over the weekend.
What made this win remarkable was that out of the six chosen horses, only one emerged as the winner. The bet started with Great Fleet finishing second at Cheltenham, followed by Hoe Joly Smoke taking third place. At Doncaster, Figjam secured second position in a Listed race, while Supremely West and Arabian Desert claimed third and second spots, respectively. The final leg saw Hamish clinching victory in the St Simon Stakes at odds of 11-2.
The substantial payout was also boosted by Best Odds Guaranteed on two of the selections, enhancing the overall winnings for the bettor. William Hill’s spokesperson, Lee Phelps, expressed surprise and admiration for the punter’s remarkable achievement, emphasizing the value of Best Odds Guaranteed in such bets. The impressive outcome of turning a £5 each-way sixfold into nearly £50,000 showcases the skill and luck involved in successful betting endeavors.
