If the recent adventure of retired racehorse 'Shamrock' were pitched as a movie it would go something like this - 'Fenton the dog, but with a racehorse!'

Such are the similarities in the reactions between Fenton the dog's owner and poor Nick Bull who never dreamed that a nice leisurely ride with Shamrock in the countryside would go so wrong. 

Clearly feeling that he still had plenty to give on the racetrack, Shamrock built up a head of steam, giving Nick the fright of his life. 

As the final caption confirms, Nick thankfully didn't suffer any major injuries and Shamrock was also unharmed.
