There was chaos in Downpatrick on Ladies' Day as the first race of the day saw as many as eight horses run loose among the field after a faller at the first hurdle caused havoc.
The first of the day was the two mile, three furlong maiden hurdle and it could not have ran off in a more disastrous fashion; eight of the 15 runners were out of contention at the first.
Mac's Xpress was sitting in third towards the outside on the run-up to the first but overjumped and gradually stumbled and fell a couple of yards after the fence, bringing down seven horses behind him.
