It really wasn't that unusual for a rider to ride in the last three heats, particularly the Home 3 or Away 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My main memories from the Laurels was from 1980. That's when I spent the second half of the meeting (and several ensuing hours) unconscious in St. George's Hospital after head-butting the concrete arch on the pits bend... Ouch that must have hurt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
