From a £1 stake to a £51k winner
Prepare yourself for one of the most sensational bets you will ever read about.
A Betfair customer has turned a £1 stake into £51,058.89 after landing a sensational 11-fold racing accumulator in the space of just three hours.
The remarkable bet focused on two meetings at Ayr and Lingfield, producing an extraordinary run of winners.
Incredibly for such a huge-priced winner, only two of the punter's selections were at odds-on with a trio of horses making the ACCA at 4/15.00.
Apples Jade kicked things off at Ayr, setting the tone for what became a clean sweep across the seven-race card at the Scottish track.
At Lingfield, one selection was declared a non-runner and voided, but the remaining picks all delivered on the all-weather, with Diamond Geezer, Space Invasion, Poke The Bear and Royal Jet all winning at odds-against.
The final leg came when The Sketcher powered home by five-and-a-half lengths, sealing a stunning five-figure return for the punter.
An extraordinary feat of punting
Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom said: "What an incredible afternoon for a Betfair customer, turning a £1 stake into more than £51,000.
"It's not every day you pick seven winners on a single card, but to combine that with multiple odds-against winners at another meeting really is extraordinary.
"Seeing The Sketcher storm home to land the final leg must have been a special moment. Congratulations on an outstanding win."
