THIS is the moment a racing punter celebrated a winner with a crazy robot dance at Hexham Races.
The punter was spotted celebrating at least two wins on Saturday by the Sky Racing cameras.
This chap knows how to celebrate a winner at the races!

He danced in jubilation after Sheriff Garrett came in in the 3.20 and then was seen doing the robot – caught in all its glory on slow-mo – after Grange Road came in in the 4.30.
The 2/1 favourite trained by Paul Nicholls sparked wild scenes – although another punter at Hexham appeared to respond angrily to the dancing.
However it was well-received on Twitter, with one viewer comparing him to Peter Crouch.
One tweet read: “Legend. Who is he? He clearly knows he’s on TV & Social Media. I’m doing that next time I’m at the race track.”
Another wrote: “Hahahahaha quality.”
However some were less than impressed.
One wrote: “Dancefloor king? He would have been thrown out of the Waterside dancing like that.”
And another said: “His robot needs work.”
While one Twitter user – Trackside Jay, a content creator for the racing industry – claimed it was him, writing: “I’m having a great time at Hexham dancing on the winning line I tell ya.”
