Richard Fahey won the the Go Racing In Yorkshire Summer Festival Tipping Challenge after a dramatic final day at York.
A host of top northern yards placed £50 daily charity bet (or £25 ew) with all winnings, plus the stake, being donated to the New Beginnings racehorse rehoming charity.
Ed Chamberlin, Alex Hammond, Oli Bell and Michael Shinners join the Sporting Life team, David O'Meara, Kevin Ryan, Karl Burke, Tim Easterby, Charlie Johnston, Richard Fahey and John & Sean Quinn made selections throughout the festival.
After selecting 12/1 winner Verbier on Friday evening, the master of Musley Bank was the leader going into the final day but was almost run down by the Sporting Life tipsters but their winner of the 4.35, Theme Park, returned 9/2 leaving them short of the winner's total.
Karl Burke was third with Ed Chamberlin moving into sixth courtesy of 6/1 winner Night On Earth.
In total £5,323.20 was raised for the charity.
