A POT of around £500,000 could be up for grabs in Saturday’s Totescoop6 after both the win and bonus funds rolled over last weekend.

After last week’s bonus hunter failed to find thewinner of the Midlands Grand National there is already £310,537 sitting in the bonus kitty while the win fund contains £77,280.

Punters will have to divide their attention between the Flat and jumps with Lingfield’s Winter Derby card and Newbury’s final jumps fixture of the season each hosting three of the Scoop6’s Channel 4-televised contests.

The nature of the  selected races might make a further rollover seem unlikely with Lingfield hosting two Listed events and the Group 3 Sportingbet Supports Heros Winter Derby, but sorting out Newbury’s showpiece event, the EBF Mares’ Novice Hurdle Finale, could be more difficult with 18 runners set to face the starter.
