New: £/€/$ 5375 in Online Casino Bonuses
135% Betting Bonus at Oddsmaker

Sportingbet's generous offer to refund all fallers at Haydock and Ascot on Saturday ended with a worst case scenario for the online bookmaker as punters favourite Kauto Star and Sam Thomas parted company at the last fence in the Betfair Lancashire Chase.

"Kauto is probably the most popular horse in training, and at such a short price, it was definitely one we didn't want to be refunding," Sportingbet's UK Promotions manager Chris Graham commented.

"To be fair to Sam Thomas and the horse it was more of a slip than a fall but we'll be refunding anyway. It won't stop us from offering attractive promotions in the future," Graham continued.

In the last month Sportingbet have refunded bets on more than 50 fallers at the weekend meetings from Wincanton, Sandown, Ascot, Wetherby and all 3 days of Cheltenham's Open Meeting.
