Summary:
Horse racing with falls at Hurst Park. Shots of the horses and riders clumped close together as they race; jumping the hedges; spectators stand alongside the course, some with cameras; on one jump a jockey falls off but rolls clear of the other horses and seems unharmed, and his horse continues the race without a rider; at the next jump, a horse stumbles out of the jump and lands badly; both horse and jockey get up; shots of a jockey on his horse as it is led away through spectators, presumably the winner.
