William Hill punter stuns bookies with incredible return from £16 in bets

William Hill have been stunned by a racing punter who has pulled off a remarkable haul after their series of multiples all landed, seeing them walk away with £74,215.87.

The lion’s share of the winnings came from a £1 each-way five-fold featuring Saisons D’Or (SP) at Southwell, Petit Tonnerre (18/1) and Jeriko Du Reponet (SP) at Punchestown, Telecommunication (SP) at Yarmouth and Nelson Gay (SP) at Ayr – landing the smart punter a whopping £64,311.57.

And the winning didn’t stop there, as the customer also had 50p each-way doubles, 10p each-way trebles and a 20p each-way four-fold on the same selections, seeing his total returns bumped up to a remarkable £74,215.87.

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “These bets really are the stuff of punters’ dreams. Finding five winners across four different cards is sensational in itself, but to combine them into a £1 each-way five-fold with a return of £64k is something altogether amazing.

“And that’s not all either, as thanks to the customer’s small stakes each-way doubles, trebles and four-fold, they’ve walked away with north of £74k! We have to tip our hat to this punter and pay out with a smile when a series of bets like this is landed.”
