Funny Racing stories
 

Two brothers found themselves with a fast horse & being punters (handicappers) didn't want anyone to know about it before it had its maiden
so one brother would go out about 3 oclock in the morning & move the furlong posts further apart so when the horse ran it'd clock 14 then when the track was closed theyd move em back needless to say it worked & the boy's made a killing at the track when it won by 6 furlongs ;-).

This next one names have been changed to protect the guilty:cool:
As there are no retiring age old fred was well into his 70s unfortunately old fred suffered from loss of memory as it was a busy training track around 900 per day old fred had swum his horse & let it dry in the stall, well it was time to take his horse home so he loaded the horse up & did just that.

The Problem?
it wasnt his horse !!! the other trainer came around found his horse missing & called the police was all solved when low & behold after all the trainers left there sitting in a stall quite content was fred's horse
