SATURDAY'S totescoop6 will see the biggest betting prize offered on a British racecourse when the pools are expected to exceed £15million.
The six races that make up this momentous bet have been split between Catterick, Goodwood and Haydock.
The win fund currently stands at £6,874,345 having evaded punters for 12 weeks, while the bonus pot is worth £3,824,712 after rolling over for the best part of nine months.
The bet’s organisers totepool are predicting £10m will be staked by punters by the time the first leg goes off at 2.05, which would see the win fund hit £10m and the bonus surpass £5m.
Thousands of first-time players are expected to throw their hat into the ring after the Scoop6 drew nationwide attention when £8 Ladbrokes punter Joe McGuire narrowly missed out on a £6.8m payout in a gripping final leg at Thirsk last weekend.
Joe will be in attendance at Haydock as a guest of Betfred boss Fred Done who has generously offered him a free £1000 crack at this weekend’s Scoop6.
With such a vast amount of money up for grabs there is a genuine chance tomorrow’s Scoop6 could create the biggest winner in British betting history. The existing record holder is Stuart Bolan dpocketed a whopping £1,132,657 in a Betfred shop on the Scoop6 in November 2004.
Betfred boss Fred Done said: “When I first bought the Tote these were the days I was dreaming of – a bet that could capture the attention of the whole country and not just the racing world.
“The bet is now bigger than the National Lottery and a real life changing sum, it's the reason the bet was first introduced. I want the Scoop6 to make millionaires.”
totepool spokesman Andrew Griffiths said: “It promises to be a spectacular day not only for punters, but for racing as a whole. The build-up has had a Grand National feel to it and we expect many first-time players will make a beeline for their local betting shop to place their £2 bet tomorrow morning.
“We're all hoping for a fairytale ending which would see us create the biggest winner in British betting history.”
Betfred currently offer 2-5 the Scoop6 will finally be won and 7-4 it rolls over once again.
The totejackpot is at Haydock on while the totetrifecta rollover race will be the Betfred Mobile Casino Silver Bowl Stakes (3.45 Haydock).

A guy from down here in sunny saltcoats scooped a cool £1.3m on the scoop 6.
Mr Kop, he’ll be able to buy Saltcoats and still have change! Great win for the lad – I hope the Record are on to him.
