Punter wins 70,000 euros in 90 minutes

A Dublin based punter picked up 70,000 euros when all four of his horses in a 100 euro Yankee won.

The un-named bettor placed his bet at Ladbrokes' Duke Lane shop in Dublin.

The four selections all ran within 90 minutes of each other and were Captain Jacksparra (7-2), Graceful Star (6-4), Potion (5-1) and Khatiman (10-3). The first named ran at Lingfield and the remainder at Roscommon.

Ladbrokes Ireland spokeswoman Adele Thompson said: "Roscommon racecourse is proving to be lucky for some. Less than two months ago, another punter sought out early prices at Ladbrokes in Mary Street and took home 150,000 euros".
