They had to be patient, but TAB punters cashed in when Major Meister won the final event at Melton on Saturday night.
Two four-figure bets were recorded on the Adam Kelly-trained four-year-old, who sprint-laned to victory in the DH Steel Vicbred Pace for driver Michelle Phillips.
A $1000 win bet at $3.20 was placed on TAB Long May We Play Claiming Masters victor Yorkshire, while another punter unloaded $4000 on the short-priced Jilliby Sylvester before he took out the Paul Blacker Pace.
