WITH the Singapore Turf Club’s impending closure leading to many thoroughbreds homeless, one horse was spotted taking matters into its own hooves by seeking greener pastures.

The brown horse with a white streak on its face and a saddle on its back was seen in a video circulated over the weekend weaving through lanes and halting traffic as it galloped on the Bukit Timah Expressway, at one point turning to face oncoming cars head on.
