Last race at Oakbank, horse goes nuts in gates next to favourite Icelandic Star, ends up getting scratched. Vet checks the favourite and allows it to run, it was gone before the bend before jockey eases it out of race. Where is the accountability of the Vet for these sort of decisions?

The UBET tent int he middle of the track had all the screens on the tote but not one on Sky channel. The only TV we could find was a little one at the tote near the home straight.
The "big" screen was after the post and impossible to see where we were.
There was no audio of anything other than the local meet.
All up, we had a good day but I found it a bit frustrating not being able to see the other races on tv without having a huge hike.

Do yourself a favour and go to the Clare Easter race meet. Went there a few years back and in my opinion was a shit load better than Oakbank.

He got it at 41 and then again at 83's. It was its first run and looked a decent mid field chance from barrier 17. Little did I realise!
