Summary
Pathe synopsis: Political barriers mean nothing when you see jockeys harnessing up for the big race at a Bucharest trotting afternoon. There’s a Western sense of fun and luxury about the fans who have a flutter on the favourite in the Rumanian capital and you’ll even find a Christian influence in this Communist country when exploring the Moldavian churches with their colourful wall frescoes.
