NEWBURY SATURDAY 12th

WELL QUITE THE MOST DISTRESSING SCENE I'VE SEEN AT RACING FOR SOME YEARS, TWO HORSES DIED IN FRONT OF US, OTHERS CLEARLY DISTURBED BY SOMETHING AT THE TIME WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT, AND RACING REALLY AN AFTERTHOUGHT AS A RESULT


RACE DELAYED AND WON BY AL FEROF 1/4F BUT FRANKLY THE RESULT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER IN THE OVERALL SCHEME OF THINGS.


UPDATE>>
GOOD RACING HAS BEEN CALLED OFF SHAME IT TOOK THEM AN HOUR LONGER THAN NECESSARY TO MAKE THE OBVIOUS CALL, NO DOUBT WITH ONE RACE RUN THEY'LL CLAIM NO REFUNDS ARE DUE. HOPE THEY FIND THE REAL CAUSE FOR THE DEATHS OF TWO HORSES AND THE DISTRESS TO MANY MORE, SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE SACKED FOR THE DECISION TO RACE THOUGH AS I SAW MANY PEOPLE DISTRESSED INCLUDING ONE FAMILY WHO I SPOKE TO AND WERE MAKING THEIR FIRST (AND PROBABLY LAST) TRIP TO THE COURSE.
