Let us not watch the Belmont Stakes,
The cruelty of these races is no mistake.
Churchill Downs in Louisville,
Twelve horses dead in thirty-one days that is foul.
The suffering of these horses should be our protest.
Let us not watch, for horses deserve the best.

no surprises here: it's all about public entertainment
American horseracing not 'designed with the horse in mind,' trainer says in light of Kentucky Derby deaths

#ChurchillDowns, home of the #KentuckyDerby, to cease racing as it investigates the deaths of 12! thoroughbred horses in recent weeks.

At the famed Churchill Downs they lay
Losing life at a Kentucky course
After being run with such force
It saddens us in so many ways
Our hearts heavy and burdened with days
Remembering these lost precious souls

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. "
