As punters found out in the Bendigo Cup on Wednsday, things don’t always to go plan for the favourites which seem to have the form on their side.

From quaddie killers and multi destroyers to the ladies who backed the only female jockey in the race, sit back and watch (in horror) as we revisit some long-odds pops lobbing on some of racing’s biggest days.
