Lucky Punter Wins Huge 51,057-to-1 Bet With Sensational 11-Fold Accumulator

One lucky fan has managed to turn £1 into more than £50,000 after a sensational 11-fold accumulator.

The bet in question was made on Betfair for the horse racing meetings in Ayr and Lingfield, with all selections winning.

Firstly, the 13:13 race delivered a 15/8 winner in the shape of Apples Jade, kicking the bet off to the perfect start.

The punter had originally picked Son Of Astar to win the 13:20 race in Lingfield, but the selection was voided as a non-runner.

After Son Of Astar was declared a non-runner and voided, the remainder of the bet was all winners.

The likes of Space Inasion, Poke The Bear and Royal Jet all won in Lingfield.

Meanwhile, Diamond Geezer, Wendigo, Stede Bonnet, Shoeshine Boy, Tommy Combats and The Skecher were victorious in Ayr.

As a result, the fan who placed a £1 bet ended up winning a grand total of £51,058.89.

Sam Rosbottom, spokesperson for Betfair, 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."
