The bonnets were out in force for Nanango Race Club’s annual Easter race meeting last Saturday.<\/p>\n

The fashion theme was \u201cEaster pastels and accessories\u201d which also meant there were a lot pink and pale blue outfits to be seen around the track.<\/p>\n

A good crowd turned out for the event which featured five races with some very tight finishes.<\/p>\n

There was also plenty of action in the betting ring and the canteen was kept busy.<\/p>\n

Local jockey Hannah Richardson went home smiling after bringing home three winners and a third.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But the meeting wasn’t without it’s hiccups, including a flat tyre on the barriers ahead of Race 1 and two late scratchings.<\/p>\n

Four-year-old mare Flaming Victory was a late scratching in Race 3 on veterinary advice after kicking her leg in the stalls, and in Race 5, Billirubin tossed jockey Shannyn Stephan behind the barrier before taking off and hurdling a fence, cutting his leg.<\/p>\n

Ambulance paramedics quickly checked Stephan over and gave her the all clear. But her good luck didn’t hold … Stephan was later fined for tossing her whip after the fall, which stewards said had spooked the\u00a0four-year-old gelding.<\/p>\n
