The team at LottoCentral HQ are again trying to enhance their horse racing knowledge as news of what can only be described as another “Lotto” style jackpot is on offer this weekend where the estimated jackpot in this weekend’s Scoop 6 is a whopping £15 million !
The Scoop 6 bet has been running since 24th July 1999 and this weekend’s predicted jackpot will be the biggest ever jackpot in the competition with a current win fund of £6.8 million and a bonus fund of £3.8 million bringing the total to £10 million. However with the unprecedented interest in this pool bet and as more stakes are added Totepool predict the win fund to be around £10m million with the Win and Bonus funds to scoop around £15 million !
The rules of the Scoop 6 bet are really simple – each week six races are chosen and for a £2 bet punters can select one horse from each race to win . Should the lucky punter pick six winners they win the jackpot , if the jackpot is not won the “pool” rolls over to the next week in a similar manner to how the UK Lotto/Euromillions operate.
Punters can submit multiple entries but of course the cost of entry then rises accordingly at £2 a line – however with a potential £15 million jackpot on offer this weekend this surely is worth consideration for this weekends betting selections.
The six Scoop 6 races this weekend as advised by www.scoop6.co.uk are :
Race 1 : 2:05 Haydock
Race 2: 2:50 Catterick
Race 3: 2:55 Goodwood
Race 4: 3:10 Haydock
Race 5: 3:25 Catterick
Race 6 : 3:45 Haydock
The guys at Betfred are currently running an offer which gives punters a free £2 bet on Sunday for every player who places a Scoop 6 bet on Saturday so this looks a worthwhile offer , even if you are not lucky enough to pick the six winners there is a consolation fund for having six placed horses – last week’s consolation fund paid £1,717 , not bad for a £2 bet !
Good Luck everybody !
