LadOnDole Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 To be honest, the deaths of the 2 horses is not a concern. What concerns me is the fact these animals are being forced to compete. As we all know, there is a winner (there always is) but has anyone concerned something else ????? yes, I'm talking about the horse that crosses the line last. How does that horse feel? is it humiliated ? is it a fat horse ? If we encourage competition, is not promoting eliteism? I do think this sort of thing has no place in modern society. We need to think about an alternative to the race, how about a grass eating competition, would that be a better way for the horses to have a competiton?

websters gue Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Who cares about the horses? What a terrible thing to say, I had a bet today along with my wife and young daughter and I had trouble explaining to her why certain fences weren't jumped due to something being covered in tarpaulin.

missymoo73 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Who cares about the horses? They are the vehicle that takes the jockeys to victory. They arnt a vehicle they are animals. Do I think its cruel - not at all - the horses love it. Edited April 9, 2011 by missymoo73 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
