    According to racing post a Nicky Henderson employee landed a £50 ante post accumulator on 5 of Hendersons cheltenham winners with bet365. They had Sprinter Sacre - Bobs Worth - Simonsig - Finians Rainbow - Riverside Theatre. Paid out £1 million.

    At least someone is having a good cheltenham !! But they would have been squeaky going to the line in the Ryanair I would have thought.:D

    I read that too.


    Apparently Son of Flicka's owner made £900,000 on his win the other day

    Was reading it earlier some going! Fair play to the lad at least someone's having a good Cheltenham!

    According to a Claire Balding tweet it is the lad who looks after Finians Rainbow. Says he will be into work tomorrow.

    I expect he might have a bit of a hangover !

    If it's him, I'm delighted, off to see his facebook page.

    Adding: he says it wasn't him!It was the work rider rather than the stable lad it seems.

    I believe there was a number of other bets running on the last winner .Henderson went balistic when it was put out in the open.

    The bet won over £3million but Bet365 had a max £1million payout.

    Still a dream win of course. But it would be a lot nicer spreading the stake around and getting £1million from 3 different bookmakers.

    I think thats bad form form from bet365. They should have paid out the 3 million. Either that or they should have told him in the shop, look you can only win a max of 1 million so reduce your stake as you only need to put £25 or so on.

    He probably would have won £1 miillion had he done the same stake accumulator with only 4 horses.

    Firstly, Bet365 don't have shops, it was put on online. Secondly if a bookies spent its time reminding customers of the rules at every turn then nothing would be done.

    If it was put online, theres all the more ease for a simple pop up message that your not going to win what you expect.....

    Yeh I was thinking that myself. The 5 horse accumulator was a bit mad in itself. I was thinking he may have done a few different accumulators to account for different combinations of horses in the yard?

    A lad I know won €110k in Boylesports on Friday. It was a lucky 63 bet. He had 4 big priced winners and 2 placed.

    Read a report today that the bet was close to 10m with Bet365. Why not do £5 accums everywhere.The banker for all the staff was the 40/1 shot.

    If Une Artiste was such a banker for the staff why did she go off at 40/1?

    Henderson does not pay bonus,one horse have your money on it.As far as I can tell the owner of Bet365 is a friend of Henderson and Stoke city owner took all bets and layed everything else.I hear there was also some other lumpy bets but Henderson stopped all info to the press.
