With no success in the Scoop6 on the opening day of Royal Ascot, punters will wake up on Wednesday with a win fund worth £69,972 and an ever-increasing bonus fund of £303,306 to aim at on day two.
Wednesday’s Scoop consists of five of the six races from Royal Ascot, with a sole visit to Hamilton for their 4.05pm contest included as the third leg.
There is also an extra bonus of £100,000 available courtesy of Betfred boss Fred Done for a single Scoop6 winner from one of the following qualifying channels – Betfred shops, Betfred.com or Betfred mobile.
The writing was on the wall early on the opening day as less than 2% of tickets survived Lord Glitters’ opening Queen Anne victory. Only 69 Scoop6 punters were rejoicing alongside favourite backers when Arizona scored a ninth Coventry Stakes success for Aidan O’Brien as the 15/8f, before Blue Point’s second King Stand success at 5/2 left a sweet sixteen units left with three races gone.
The fourth leg at Thirsk went the way of Buckland Boy who was covered by just a single unit. That sole remaining ticket was on Mengli Khan who never got involved in the Ascot Stakes.
totepool spokesman Matt Hulmes said: “Punters were out of luck in the Scoop6 on the opening day of Royal Ascot but can look forward to a potential £1/2 million in combined pots on Wednesday.”
The Scoop6 place fund paid £558.10 and was won by 11 units.
The totejackpot on Wednesday consists of all six races of Royal Ascot 2019 with a guaranteed £25,000 pool.
