Our Punter of the Week is MA, from Sydney, who turned a $20 investment into more than $1,800 after landing the trifecta on the Builder’s Academy Pace (Race 6) at Melton on Saturday evening.
Standing out all three of his selections, our punter would have been more than happy to see Greg Sugars drive favourite Sam’s the Master to the lead and he was able to dictate terms throughout, setting up a race winning lead around the home bend despite the best endeavours of Holdonsu, who had parked leader’s back and got within 4m of the winner at the finish.
With another of the favoured runners, Dynamic Bromac, surviving a challenge from the fast finishing Hickstead to hold on for third, our punter had a winning ticket in his hand and would have been ecstatic to see the final STAB dividend land at a healthy $93.20 per dollar investment, giving him a total collect of $1864 for his troubles.
Nice work MA!
