Video: This woman is a bit excited to collect her winnings

When your outsider bet at 50/1 comes in, we can understand that you'd probably be a little bit excited, but try and stay on your feet

When your outsider bet at 50/1 comes in, we can understand that you’d probably be a little bit excited, but try and stay on your feet

Liberty Counsel came in as the winner in what could mildly be described as a bit of a shock in the Ladbrokes Irish Grand National today, at odds of 50/1.

Now, if we had put any money on this, not only would we currently be on a flight to the Bahamas, but we would have run as fast as we could do the bookies with a huge smile on our face to collect our winnings.

Obviously, that’s what this woman was thinking, and understandably, got a bit too excited and fell over. Unfortunately for here, the cameras were there to capture the magic moment.

We will, of course, resist the temptation to say that this filly fell at the Grand National today…
