GL guys, hope it comes in for you

True but i did read this one and think im going to do that as hadnt looked at todays horses and wanted to do a lucky for a bit of interest,got studying footie and forgot.

last goin 4 wide

going to have to take of like last 1

the dream dies but still a whopping return 19x total stake for 3 winners

No pace, I'll take last 15 lengths.....

Never given a chance......15 lengths off the pace??????

Fair to say the ride didn't go to plan. Was fun while it lasted.

unlucky. Garrity gave it a harry hunt of a ride...

should have booked marquand lol

last few race comments: mid, led, cswnr, led.....

For an horse that usually lies pretty prominent that was a very strange ride and certainly warrants looking into?

unlucky/well done all

Shame it didn't go in but we've had a lot of fun for a couple of quid.

Fair play to whoever took a chance and fair play to whoever cheered us on.

PJay, unlucky with the last one.... still three nice priced winners together, with these type of "name coincidence" bets often produce spectacular results, this almost one of them WD

WILLIAM HILL were spared a £5 million payout on Saturday after Innocent Touch could not repeat the successes of the same owner's Another Touch, Don't Touch and Right Touch at Ayr.

Innocent Touch was sent off favourite to land the 1m5f handicap and complete a memorable four-timer for owners Nicholas Wrigley and Kevin Hart with their only four horses in training, all with Richard Fahey.

The owners had already enjoyed a 314-1 treble with Another Touch in the mile nursery, Right Touch in the 7f handicap and topped up by Don't Touch maintaining his unbeaten record in the William Hill Ayr Gold Cup.

Bookmakers waited nervously to see if the fourth 'Touch' horse would land a number of multiple bets. However, Innocent Touch finished in the middle of the pack behind 50-1 winner Hardstone.

Big payout anyway

William Hill spokesman Jon Ivan-Duke said: "As it was we probably paid out £2.5 million on the Touch horses; that would be the singles on Don't Touch, winner of the Ayr Gold Cup, which was a £2 million pay-out and then another half a million for the doubles and trebles.

"It would definitely have been much worse had the last one landed because we had hundreds of thousands of pounds rolling up onto that last leg so that has been the silver lining on the cloud."

The defeat for Innocent Touch was a rare reversal for Fahey on a special Saturday on which he claimed the Group 2 Dubai Duty Free Mill Reef Stakes with Ribchester as well as the Ayr Gold Cup. In total, he has six winners at combined odds of 141,395-1

"We haven't seen any obvious gamble cash in the sense of a Barney Curley-esque gamble, but we have seen smaller shop bets which have accumulated and caused run ups going onto Innocent Touch in the last race which would have essentially doubled our losses on the day had it won," Ivan-Duke added.

Dream day

"This is the stuff of dreams," said Fahey after Right Touch had won. "It was Kevin Hart's idea to run them all and it's been a fantastic day for them, it's unbelievable."

Wrigley, former York racecourse chairman and senior steward of the Jockey Club, said: "Isn't it remarkable? The number of people who have come up to me, who I've never met before, and have said 'congratulations, we've put all these in a yankee'."

Had 4 x £2 trebles and £4 roll up, winners were 7/1, 8/1 and 5/1. Was golfing and didn't know results until a couple of hours ago. Had Innocent Touch at 7/1 so bet would have been worth around 17k. Got 864 back for treble, anyone got a rough idea what the cash out offer might have been?

PS. Thanks to PJay - I would never even have considered bet until seeing his thread.
