For as long as I can remember we've had problems like this at Fakenham, and that's over 2 decades :yikes:. The jockey gets hammered with full responsibilty for taking the wrong course, and yet tracks like Cheltenham manage to use tape across a number of places that are over 50 yards wide..... Fakenham can't even affored 20 yards of tape :crazy: ... or a handful of red cones :doh1:

This mistake costs people £1'000's and doing nothing to prevent things that have happened before it just stupid. :ermmm
