Eight lucky punters have each won $2.37 million (UK 1.3 million pounds) after finding six winners of selected races in the Scoop Six Jackpot in the United Kingdom over the weekend.

Two of the winning punters had the added luck of receiving the substitute runner who saluted after the horse they picked was scratched.

All eight winners now have the chance to pick the winner of a bonus race worth 5 million pounds this weekend and if they do they get a part of the bonus pool.

Wasn't that long ago that another UK punter won more than £400,000 from just a £2 horse racing bet 'Tote Scoop6'
Good for them!
