A barnstorming finale from Community Art provided a horror moment for one TAB customer at Charlton on Thursday last week.
The punter’s $10,000 bet at $5 on Midnight Dancer looked home when the AJ and BJ Tindale-trained pacer shot well clear turning for home, but was foiled in the shadows of the post by Trevor Dawson’s six-year-old.
Community Art rocketed late and forged clear to beat Midnight Dancer by more than 2m on the line.
Below are some of the other big bets taken by the TAB on Victorian harness racing last week.
