Well, fucking DUH. A whole sport that exploits and abuses animals fails to keep these same animals safe. Imagine that. Animals need to be left out of our entertainment. "Entertainment." #EndHorseRacing #BanHorseRacing FUCK HORSE RACING.

" Two more horses have died at Churchill Downs, the home of the famed Kentucky Derby, officials from the track announced on Saturday. A total of seven horses have now died at the racetrack in the week-long lead up to the race.

Three-year-old Chloe’s Dream was euthanized following Race 2 on Saturday, after taking a bad step leaving the first turn and being taken off in an equine ambulance, according to CNN affiliate WDRB.

In Race 8, Freezing Point pulled up suddenly and “was loaded into an equine ambulance under his own power,” Al Ruggles, the American Association of Equine Practitioners’ on-call veterinarian, told the NBC broadcast. The broadcast later said the horse was in a protective splint after suffering an injury to his front ankle before eventually being euthanized. "

Australian Veterinary Association strengthens policy against the use of whips on horses

The updated policy states that whips ‘must not be used to influence the result of a competitive event’

It's a cruel "sport". Ban it.

Show Us Plenty was the 13th (!) racehorse to die on the tracks in Aotearoa this year. He was only 4 and was euthanised at Ashburton Racecourse earlier this month after he broke his humerus during a race.

You won't have read about his death in the mainstream media or even on NZ horse-racing society's website or social media.

According to the Coalition For The Protection Of Racehorses, deaths (most of which are thousands of horses per year, deemed unsuitable or not suitable anymore for racing) are under-reported. Retirement plans are rare, and horses in activity suffer from extremely intensive training and barbaric techniques such as whips, electric shocks or tongue ties.

For those who thought the British racing industry cared about horses bred, trained and raced in the name of sport, think again. The industry still doesn’t support the British Thoroughbred Retraining Centre (BTRC) and the vulnerable horses that the Charity has spent over 30 years caring for. The industry’s only interest is money. Horses are a cruel means to an end. #BanHorseRacing
