Check out Race Six from Charlton last Friday (the one after the serious accident)
Look closely at the race video of Race 6 from Charlton

Note the driver of Milady Denver, who had been one of the Clerks of Course up until that race. and if i'm not mistaken, in his jodhpurs and riding boots, after a quick change.
How did this transition take place?
During the long delay after the race crash in the preceding race Kate Gath and John Caldow seem to have left Charlton to drive at Ballarat that night, leaving 2 horses without drivers.
(The stewards report: As Kate Gath, driver of Manassa Sky, and John Caldow, driver of Mylady Denver, failed to remain on-course to fulfill their respective drives and elected to proceed to the Ballarat night meeting an inquiry was adjourned.)
So Glenn Douglas was recruited, ( Glenn Douglas trainer of Half Crown Gap in this event was allowed permission to drive Manassa Sky due to exceptional circumstances in that their were no other available drivers) and so was one of the Clerks of Course !
The result? Glenn won the race, while the Clerk of Course/driver copped a fine of $100 for "lack of control". That's a bit tough !
