I got into this discussion as a result of someone saying they had seen horses exhausted at Haydock, someone else said it was the heat. Then the question of horses having to have oxygen after races came up.
Now, I don't want to ban racing or any other sport, but, if something can be improved, made safer, both for horses and people, then I'm all for it.
No one surely can condone any horse dying in a sport, any sport if it can be avoided. From what I've read from the really pro racing people on here, racing can be improved.
No one likes changes, more rules and regulation but that's what has to happen for things to carry on.
I am coming round to the opinion that the industry needs to make itself more horse friendly, if it doesn't it will be done in spite of them.
Just slagging of the people who compile damaging statistics is stupid. You need to give them nothing to compile.
Ok I actually see your point. what would you change then? just out of interest?
