A serious question for you.
What is it that you think occurs when these animals are done with thoroughbred racing?
You can be ashamed all you like, but the FACT is that those horses would have been dead long ago if not for the chucks and a place to race afterwards, not to mention they are as well treated as any pet you or anyone else has ever seen.
The more you know....
As an aside to all this, one of Chad sponsors is a guy i interact with every single day and suffice to say, this thing has everyone involved, very upset and feeling horribly.
