We know the Spring Racing Carnival is in full swing, but maybe you should take a lesson from someone over in the US and just stick to drinking in the grandstand.

A bloke over in the States was arrested for jumping on a horse while pissed and nearly made it out onto the track at the Breeders' Cup meet in Kentucky.

Michael Wells-Rody apparently snuck into "a restricted area", saddled up onto a horse and was at the entrance to the racetrack before finally being stopped.

It's actually amazing he got that far to be honest, because not only had he no accreditation to be in the area he was in, he was also not in silks and dressed in a suit, which to be fair is pretty good indication he aint no jockey.

Wells-Rody was charged with alcohol intoxication in a public place and disorderly conduct, and is scheduled to appear in court today.
