A once-a-year Melbourne Cup punter caused a riot in a Sydney pub today. “It’s all so confusing! What the hell is a Quaddie?” sobbed Margaret Molloy 27, designer, as she was being led away by police after holding up the betting queue for a full 17 minutes. It has since been revealed the woman was instructed by her boyfriend, who was in the pub at the time, to place multiple bets for him: a Quaddie, a Quinella on the 7th, an Extacta on the 5th and a Trifecta on the big race. Poor thing had no chance.
