This is race 8 from Sydney's Harold park Paceway.Here we see a nasty accident during this event.All horses and drivers were not injured in this fall.The race-caller is Kevin Thompson.
So proud of my dad could never watch him when he was doing the pickup even though you wouldn’t get a better clerke of the course I miss him everyday he is the one on the brown coloured horse MR COOL love and miss you dad love always Lee
Ya just dont see pile ups like this in Sydney anymore.Track design and horse welfare have come along way in 20 years.Kudos to the industry for getting its act in order
Mile long track at Menangle=much safer. Still doesn't have half the charm Harold Park had though. Just outside the Sydney CBD right in the heart of harbour district. That's one thing Sydney had over Melbourne. Moonee Valley played second fiddle to the gallop track and wasn't in such a central spot like that. Especially that old track they had before this race here. Lovely infield just inside the running rail
Have you been living under a rock? There is still a long way to go for the industry to "get its act in order". Yes track and horse welfare may have come a long way but getting rid of the shonky criminal element in the industry is almost non existent.
They should have never had so many horses the race was congested sad ending for everyone involved im a race fan and a lover if horses horses are beautiful and should be allowed to show thier stuff
Die Fahrer haben sich diesen Job ausgesucht, selber schuld wenn sie sich die Knochen brechen😡😡😡 die armen Pferde wurden nicht gefragt, ob sie rennen wollen 😡😡 sie werden einfach benutzt, und entsorgt, wenn sie verletzt oder nicht schnell genug sind 😡😡😡😡😡
They will not put out information on all horses shipped almost immediately to slaughter - their quiet little secret - when injured but can walk, hobble, limp and stand on the slaughter truck.
