A runaway horse wandered onto a train platform in Australia last Friday.

The horse was able to escape after a break-in at the stables of trainer Annabel Neasham in Sydney.

Transport for NSW said on their Instagram: "After a CCTV review the individual was located on the platform at Warwick Farm Railway Station.

"He appeared to pursue an informant along the platform before unsuccessfully attempting to board a train service.

"The individual then moved to the carpark area where he was taken in by his owner and he was returned to his residence in a stable condition. No one involved in the incident is intending to take any further action as the individual was only horsing around!"
