The race caller, Victoria Shaw. In January 1998, Victoria Shaw called her first horse race. Just 18 months earlier she had been a finallist in the fashions on the field at the VRC Oaks. In a career of ups and downs over the past 20 years, Victoria has persisted - even if that has meant branching out into other forms of racing - and it's taken her a long way from home. In episode three of Object of the Game, we take a look at the career of Australia's only female race caller, Victoria Shaw. The theme music in this episode is courtesy of the Blue Dot Sessions and the Free Music Archive. Clips provided by Picnic Racing and Greyhound Racing Victoria. Object of the Game is a new podcast from the National Sports Museum, telling the stories behind the objects on display.
