Bookmaker's Million-Pound Loss After Accurate Epsom Derby Tricast Prediction
Epsom Derby Upset: Bookmaker Loses Millions on Accurate Tricast Prediction The 2025 Epsom Derby saw an unexpected turn of events, not on the racetrack itself, but in the betting world. Kevin Blake, a horse racing tipster, accurately predicted the Tricast, a complex bet requiring the correct prediction of the first three horses in the race's finishing order. This prediction resulted in a massive payout of over £8,000 for those who followed Blake's advice. The unexpected accuracy of Blake's prediction had significant consequences for Coral bookmakers. A source close to the company confirmed that they lost over £1 million due to the winning Tricast bets. "It was a stunning upset," said the source, who wished to remain anonymous. "We didn't anticipate such a precise prediction, and the volume of bets placed on that Tricast was substantial." The video showcasing Blake's reaction to the results has gone viral, highlighting both the thrill of a successful high-odds bet and the substantial risks involved in the bookmaking industry. The incident serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of horse racing and the potential for significant financial gains and losses.
