C4 Racing from Newbury - 2 horses *electrocuted*
In article fIxm7.2485$lk6.889133@orpheusnews, Fliss@orpheusnet says...
My theory is the two which died stood facing towards or away from the
power line; the survivors stood more-or-less parallel, so electrically
each animal was a pair of bipeds with little current in the torso.
Nah - it's ley-lines, innit. The whole area's lousy with 'em. Probably
find they got tangled up in the exotic energy field that surrounds the
course.
Proper tin-foil hats (and in their cases skid-trays) and they'd have
been fine.
