Listen "CRACKER AND THE WASP A story from the Northcote Heavy Horse Centre about 2005"
Episode Synopsis
I could see the situation was getting worse, I stopped the dray and instructed all the passengers to get off the vehicle without delay, if not even quicker.I was by now holding Cracker on the reins with extreme difficulty. Once everyone was off the dray I also got down and went to the head of the horse. I could not ask the groom to look at the horse's head while I stayed in the seat, as the groom was not a trained horseman and I had doubts that I would be able to hold him for much longer.There was a wasp inside his blinker. The blinker is the side covering to the eyes on the bridle that prevents the horse looking sideways or being concerned by things behind.
