Ray Hadley has been caught on camera ‘illegally’ riding a horse statue in the 2GB office.

The huge statue appeared in the Macquarie Radio offices last week ahead of The Everest this weekend, courtesy of Racing NSW.

Although staff were warned not to sit on the horse in the office newsletter, it seems Ray decided it was indeed stable enough to ride!

Hay, what’s a broadcaster to do?

But Ray is insisting he didn’t see the email warning people not to ride the horse.

“As a kid, I was deprived of a rocking horse… so I got there this morning at six o’clock and threw the leg over.

“I didn’t see that directive from management so I did ride the horse this morning.”
