Scoop6 bonus battle goes to Blue Square Gold Cup

THERE will be almost as many bonus hunters at Haydock as in London's Square Mile on Saturday as 125 punters will bid to land a share of the £269,871 Totescoop6 bonus fund by selecting the winner of the Blue Square Gold Cup Chase (3.35).

With 14 likely runners in the Blue Square Gold Cup and none set to go off at triple figure prices itis probable that the entire field will be covered, with some bonus seekers sure to be attracted to the larger potential payout should a relatively unpopular longshot come home in front.

Totepool spokesman George Primarolo said: "The Scoop6 bonus fund will almost certainly be won this weekend as the holders of last weekend’s 125 winning tickets look to add a share of £269,871 to the £1,681 they have already pocketed from the bet."

The bumper haul of scoop6 winners last week was caused by a slew of winning favourites and means that the win fund starts again from nothing this weekend.

Saturday's Scoop6 is comprised of three races from Ascot and three from Haydock, all shown live on Channel 4 Racing, including the Betfair Ascot Chase featuring Herecomesthetruth and Planet Of Sound.
