Racing NSW Stewards have today spoken to trainer Annabel Neasham regarding video footage which has been publicly circulated of a horse being loose on Warwick Farm train station.
Ms Neasham explained that on the evening of Friday, 5 April 2024 an unknown person gained access to one of her stable barns in the Warwick Farm stabling precinct.
It was ascertained that the unknown person released three racehorses and a stable pony with one of the stated racehorses leaving the vicinity of her stable complex.
Ms Neasham added that as soon as she became aware that there was a loose horse from her stable complex, she immediately contacted local police who attended soon after and the horse was able to be recaptured without sustaining any injury or damaging any property.
Further, Ms Neasham explained that the stable barn which was accessed accommodates horses which are in the early stages of their respective preparations and therefore did not contain any horses which were entered for or scheduled to race.
Ms Neasham will be formally interviewed by the Stewards at a time to be fixed regarding the incident.
