TURBO TERRY CLEANS UP AT THE BOOKIES!

TURBO TERRY CLEANS UP AT BOOKIES!

TURBO TERRY CLEANS UP AT BOOKIES!

The fastest window cleaner in the world has also proved he is a whizz with the horses after he mopped up a massive £41,439.47 from bookies William Hill.

Terry 'Turbo' Burrows, who holds the World Record for cleaning three 45 square inch windows, plus wiping the sills, in just 9.14 seconds, landed the bucketful when his four horses sluiced up at odds of 10-1, 11-1, 15-1 and 12-1 for his £1 each way Lucky 15 bet.

Burrows (54) has held 7 window cleaning World Records overall and recently beat his previous best time by 0.10 seconds to go in to the latest edition of the record books, but it is by far his biggest win from his regular bet on the horses.

Speaking about his win, Terry said, "I'm going out to buy a new bucket and a golden squeegee now! Window cleaning is my passion but I do like to follow the horses as well and this is the most money I've ever got in less than 2 hours work!"

Terry's four horses were:

2.05 - Ascot: Sweetheart (10-1)
3.10 - Ascot: Mamlook (11-1)
3.30 - Haydock: Our Vic (15-1)
3.45 - Ascot: The Sawyer (12-1)
£1 each way Lucky 15 bet, paid £41.439.47
including a 10% bonus.
