On some level, I end up feeling guilty that it happens because I funnel money into the system...like I help encourage putting these beautiful animals in situations that are more dangerous than they may otherwise face if we had no racing at all. Irrational on some level, I know...and it does help to know that these horses were bred to run and they love it. But my knee-jerk reaction is always the same...

yeah it was a grass race though.
I just get frustrated with people who dont watch races every day telling people who do what they saw.
I know Hooves and Randall and Joel and BTW watch races, but based on the comments i read it sounda as if noone actually watches them yet still has a strong opinion, I find this amazing and am blowing my top over the amount of people who cold be dumb enough to argue about something they havent seen.
