This short remix of films about horse racing set to music, takes you through from getting ready and arriving at the track, to placing a bet, the race and the result.
This playful short film set to music, is a tribute to some of the activities around the spring racing carnival that takes place in Melbourne during October and November. It captures the race preparations for both people and horses, and shows the mounting yard, the TAB bets, the race call and a punter finding out the winner.
