bet365's $50,000 Pick 6 Challenge goes off

It has taken a minute, but the bet365 $50,000 Pick 6 Challenge has finally been collected by one educated logged-in member. 

The leading bookmaker has been running a competition for its customers whereby they highlight six races across a certain race day. If the punter can correctly select all six winners, they earn a piece of the $50,000 major prize pool. If they are the only one to achieve this feat, they get the lot. 

bet365 have also been offering up a prize pool of $10,000 to be split amongst those who pick five winners, and $5,000 to be divided up between those who select four. 

Today's version saw four race tracks being featured including Randwick, Morphettville, Sunshine Coast and Moonee Valley. 

The plucky punter correctly picked Zou Tiger ($5.50) in the seventh at Randwick and backed that up by landing on Bandi's Boy ($9.50) in the ensuing race there. They then turned their attention to race nine at Morphettville where their task was made a touch easier with race-favourite Aitch Two Oh ($3.60F) getting the chocolates. The competition headed back to Randwick for race nine where second-favourite Amor Victorious ($4.20) resumed a winner for Bjorn Baker. 

With only two legs to go, the winner had to head up north to the Sunny Coast and lobbed on the Kris Lees-prepared Kinloch ($4.80) who duly saluted in the Listed Sunshine Coast Cup. It was a nervous eight minute wait until the last at Moonee Valley, but Godolphin's favourite Pereille ($2.30F) brought home the incredible six-legger. 

The were 64 other participants who went super close picking five winners and sharing $157 each of the $10,000 minor prize. 

The Pick 6 Challenge is exclusive to bet365 customers and can be found promoted online each week.
