Racing officials in Australia are hunting spectators who threw cans of beer onto the racetrack as horses approached the finish of a big New Year’s Eve race.
At least two cans landed on the surface near to the horses competing for the A$750,000 (£423,000) King Of The Mountain race at Toowoomba in Queensland. Thankfully none of the runners were hit during the incident which can be seen on the race footage.
Toowoomba Turf Club officials have appealed for help from those among the crowd of 3,000 who may have captured the incidents on their mobile phone.
