Hukum crowned king on record day of turnover

World Pool bet types hit new King George Day high of £28.8 million 

Hukum winning the G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes highlighted a quality eight-race card at Ascot on Saturday, where World Pool saw turnover grow year-on-year by HK$33.9 million (£3.4 million).

Having jumped from HK$130.8 million in 2021 to HK$253.4 million last year when the number of races commingled increased from six to seven and two further bet types (Exacta and Treble) were added, World Pool turnover hit a new high of HK$287.3 million (£28.8 million) for 2023 with the number of races up from seven to eight.

A total of HK$49.4 million (£4.9 million), the highest single-race turnover on the day, was bet on the King George, a notable increase from the 2022 figure of HK$29.9 million (£3.2 million) when only six runners went to post.

“It was great to be able to offer punters from across the globe an opportunity to bet into World Pool for all eight races this year,” the Wagering Products Executive Director for the Hong Kong Jockey Club, Michael Fitzsimons, said. “Six of the eight contests boasted double-figure fields, including the King George, which always helps to heighten betting interest and we were delighted with the turnover results and value World Pool offered racing fans.

“It’s a shame that Hong Kong-based rider Vincent Ho picked up an injury before getting the chance to fulfil his riding commitments at Goodwood this week but we’re still very much looking forward to having World Pool in action for the opening three days of this fantastic meeting.”

Saffie’s first group glory recognized as £4,000 World Pool Moment of the Day.

Random Harvest gave jockey Saffie Osborne a first group victory on British soil in the Valiant Stakes, a performance that caught the eye of the World Pool Moment of the Day judges.

The win meant groom Eloise O’Hart took home a cheque for £4,000 and enters the chance to win a VIP trip to Hong Kong by being named World Pool Moment of the Year.

Receiving the cheque on O’Hart’s behalf, jockey Osborne said: “Eloise does an amazing job with this horse. She’s ridden and looked after her the whole way through her career, so it’s a very special day and great for her to get this prize. Random Harvest loves Ascot. It’s an even-climbing track that really suits her and she seems to find her best here. Ed [Walker] has an amazing team that care so much about their job and I’m just the lucky one who gets on top on the day.”

UK Tote punters celebrate beating SP in all-bar one race

* The Tote operated with a win overround of 110% compared to 121% (SP).
* Exacta beat Forecast in seven out of eight races.
* Trifecta beat Tricast in five out of six races.

Provider’s bone-chilling slot is back for a second instalment and with bigger bonuses, bigger frights and even bigger wins

Think you are brave enough to return to the Castle of Terror? This lab experiment-horror sequel from Big Time Gaming is a bone-chilling adventure packed with electrifying features designed to give you the fright of your life.

This is a slot where players find themselves in a spooky lab where they must brace themselves for Bonus Respins that are triggered by landing Scatters. When they drop, they awaken monstrous reels with different Bonuses coming into play depending on where the Scatter lands.

This includes:

Brains – extra Brains land on the reels.

Alive – A random Win Multiplier is applied to all wins.

Shock – Wilds reveal Random Multipliers.

Monster – A random symbol becomes Wild on reels two to five

Horror – A random reel will be filled with Wilds.

If one or more Scatters appear during the Bonus Respin, the lab erupts into chaos, triggering 10 Free Spins for a spine-tingling time. But if two or three Scatters drop, the experiment escalates with another 10 Free Spins awarded.

During Free Spins, the Win Multiplier begins at 1x but mutates after every winning spin, amplifying rewards with each electrifying jolt. Free Spins also come infused with Bonuses, which collide to make each round terrifying and thrilling.

Depending on which reels the triggering Scatters landed, players might find that the machine gun surges again, granting four Extra Spins plus two more for each additional Scatter beyond the second.

For those who dare to take control, the Bonus Buy feature lets players pull the lever instantly. For 100x the stake, charge up 10 Free Spins with two bonuses, or for 300x, unleash 10 Enhanced Free Spins with three bonuses.

With Castle of Terror II, players get to step into the lab but must brace themselves… their creation may be more powerful than they ever imagined.

Nik Robinson, CEO at Big Time Gaming, said: “Castle of Terror II is a terrifying slot that’s not for the faint-hearted. Players find themselves in a spooky lab where creepy experiments take place, but if they can hold their nerve, there are plenty of bonus features to discover.”

“The action starts with the Bonus Respins and the various features that can play out across the reels. But the real experimental stuff happens in the Free Spins, where bonuses collide and big wins can emerge from the chaos.”

“Castle of Terror II really does put players on the edge of their seats with heart-stopping action and plenty of unexpected jump scares. Think you have what it takes to enter the Castle of Terror for the second time? There’s only one way to find out.”
