There was a cracking finish to the opening race at Australia’s Canterbury racecourse on Thursday.
Riding on Miss Royale in the Hyland Race Colours Plate, jockey Blake Shinn suffered an unfortunate trouser malfunction just after the start of the race.
And although Shinn fought a good fight, his trousers finally came down on the home straight, leaving him completely exposed in front of the crowd and watching TV audience as he crossed the line in second place.
‘The elastic went during the race, but I had to keep going,’ Shinn told reporters afterwards.
‘I usually come here and stay focused in search of winners. People wouldn’t know I’m that cheeky.
