A yearling sale has made the news after a streaker decided that the show ring was the appropriate place to do a little fleshy gallivanting.

An article by Yahoo News explains that the incident took place on Wednesday (January 31) at the Karaka Yearling Sale in New Zealand.

The spectacle took place after the Book 1 session of the Thoroughbred sale concluded.

The streaker – a female – pranced through the ring and threw a couple of cartwheels into her performance for good measure.

Well-known Down Under Thoroughbred trainer Rob Waterhouse – the grandson of Gai Waterhouse – took in the performance and even shot video, which he proceeded to post to social media.

To go along with the footage – which Trot Insider has opted to not include in this posting – Waterhouse wrote, “An unusual and appealing lot going through the Karaka sale ring in NZ: an athletic, precocious type, good stride — plenty of bounce, if a shade frisky.

"My grandmother might dismiss as ‘lacking breeding’ and, no doubt, might be expensive to keep in work."

The latest event is the third of recent memory when it comes to the Down Under racing scene.

Back in 2011, a flasher tried her best to get the job done, but somehow managed to fail in the attempt.

Also, just two years ago, a bloke with a weak late kick tried to show his chops in the final sixteenth, but impressed nobody.
