Former Fremantle, Greater Western Sydney and Carlton and NAB rising star AFL player Rhys Palmer is facing a life ban from race tracks after throwing two shoes at horses during the running of race six at Gloucester Park on Friday night.
The winning driver Dylan Egerton-Green told The West Australian newspaper that he was stunned by the incident.
“It was shock to see the first shoe coming,” Egerton-Green said.
“The second one went between the legs of my drive.
“It was miraculous that no horses faltered. Most of them are inexperienced pacers.”
Following the incident Palmer was immediately escorted out of the premises.
