One punter was confident Tasmyn Potter would get her first career winner as a trainer at Shepparton last week, launching a four-figure wager on Itzmineontheline before his victory in the Cottrells Electrical 3YO Pace.
The TAB customer placed $4400 on the Betting Line gelding at $2.80 and watched on as the 21-year-old Potter steered him to a comfortable 3m triumph from the front.
The $12,320 collect was just one of the big results registered with the TAB at Shepparton last Tuesday, with $5000 placed on Keayang Alex at $2.20 before he won the Jims Diggers Pace and $3500 bet on Aliza Hill at $3.40 before she prevailed in the Saddleworld Shepparton Maiden Pace.
