And the farce at Ayr where the problem on the bend caused an abandonment? Helpfully a spectator in clown costume was already at the track to give advice.

Streaker at Fontwell a few years ago ran up the straight with the horses. As I remember Richard Dunwoody tapped him with his whip on the way past.
Stewards chased him into the enclosure it was so funny. |

Last year there was a 3 runner apprentice race on the AW, the long shot shoots clear at a daft pace, the other two muppets ignore it and concentrate on each other until its a furlong clear, suddenly the penny drops that they've given even a tired horse too much rope but by then its too late.
Only wish i could remember the race, think they both picked up bans. |

I still think the Worcester abandonment on a perfect Summer's day last year was the Daddy, because of a lack of water. (Course is usually submerged in the stuff for at least 9 months of they year given our climate).

It wasnt a Horserace but
Jennifer Brown, aged 62, a grandmother was thrilled to win second prize in a baking contest until she found that her cake was the only entry. She was awarded second place for her Victoria Sponge in the competition, . She was intrigued to find out which cake had beaten her to the top spot and it was then that she discovered the truth. Organisers had spotted her sponge had rack marks from where it had been in the oven and decided it wasn't up to the standards demanded for first place. But grandmother-of-four Jennifer said she was not browned off and chuckled, 'I must admit I have never heard of coming second in a one horse race before. When a friend of mine told me I had come second I was quite pleased, both for getting a prize and also because I just assumed they must have had more entries. The cake hadn't been judged good enough to win the contest, but it was soon polished off and there were certainly no complaints.' Jennifer, who had entered the competition organised for her village carnival in Wimblington, Cambridgeshire, UK, added, 'Although I have never heard of anything like this before I certainly didn't take offence. I had a good laugh with the organiser about it. It certainly won't put me off baking cakes. |
