One punter stands to collect close to $40,000 if a two-leg multi placed on Wednesday’s mid-week racing gets up.
The $9,000 bet was placed with the TAB and sees the punter backing in two of the well-fancied favourites on the Caulfield and Canterbury cards.
The bet kicks off in Race 3 at Caulfield with the punter confident Villermont ($2.20) can get the job done.
In the second leg of the multi they’ve taken the short odds on unbeaten 4-year-old Stonebrook ($2.00) in Race 4 at Canterbury.
The two short-priced favourites combine for odds of $4.40, which would see the punter take home $39,600 should they both get up.
Update: Another bet has been placed on the same multi bet which would see the second punter take home a whopping $65,648 for their $17,600 stake!
