Naas racing ABANDONED and labelled ‘farce’ as thick fog wreaks havoc and denies horse with adult film star’s name

Naas #Naas

FANS are up in arms after horseracing at Naas was abandoned because of the weather.

Heavy fog made it impossible to see during the 12.30 race so all subsequent races were called off.

Fog made visibility impossible for viewers and commentators

Racing TV broadcast the event but viewers were unable to see the horses or the track at times.

In the 12:30 Brandy Love, who shares a name with an adult film actress, led the way and was 1/100 in the in-play betting at one stage.

Fog then meant viewers and commentators had no idea what was going on until Night and Day emerged as the lead horse in Brandy Love’s place.

That is how the race finished with Jumping Jet third and Tophill Low fourth as fans branded Naas an “absolute farce”.

One said: “That was an absolute farce for the viewer. Brandy Love went 10s on in running. How could anyone see it to trade it?”

Another added: “Brandy Love went 1/100 in running and gets beat by night and day.

“Only saw the last 50 yards.”

A third wrote: “Mist the first winner at Naas.”

And another commented: “Farcical at Naas. No other word for it.”

Today’s races have been rescheduled for Friday but many unhappy punters were disappointed to miss out on the action.
