Yeap Poh Keat ( PK Yeap )
one hot Sunday afternoon
at B T TC many moons
ago in 1980s rode and won
on the least backed Horse at a Race,v
win dividend was s$1,308.00
, a record of sort

What is the max dividend for win ?
For $1308 does the tote board display as $999 ?
My uncle onlee seen onsite max of win dividend of near $900.
My uncle max strike for win was $400+
Max strike for quartet was $4k+
My uncle Don't think it will happen to him again in this lifetime.

in Sg Turf Club history
the tote display board max 3 digits.

for a win dividend to hit more than

1,000 occurred around 3 times from
memory...

those old days field size per race can

exceed 13 horses for 4d games draw

for sat and sun.

club will draw the 4d numbers and assign them to each of 13 horses at the 6pm races.

more horses at each races ...

My uncle think muud will then play this kind $999
My uncle ever saw 1 pork seller kind of uncle collecting his winning that possiblee upto 1 mil as they need to call out the mareneger and do counting and the jua ji all in $100 notes in piles and piles that were too thick for counter to handover to uncle in stacks Surprisinglee they did not invite uncle to go orfid take cheque. So my uncle take it as turf club is a place put money take money no nonsense.
