One punter was confident Guest Artist would get the job done on Australian debut at Ballarat last week and the New Zealand import didn’t let him down.
The TAB customer placed a $5000 wager on the Tim McGuigan-trained pacer at $2.40 before his dominant victory in the Woodlands Stud 3YO Maiden Pace.
The son of Art Major sat parked before racing clear in the home straight to win by almost 10m on the line.
That bet was among the major hits last week, with the full list of TAB big bets below.
