Question

HORSES HATE RUNNING LIKE I HATE YOU WHO THINK RACING IS OK!!!

Answer 1

No its not bad at all. People are just badly informed..like some people. Ive grown up racing its not bad horse are born to run. Race horses are treated like royality. If you think horse racing is bad then so is dog racing. Certain animals are ment to race they love every second of racing. I bet you horses would  kill to be a race horse, a wonderfull stable, they are fed good meals, tehy are being watch 24/7, They get baths almost daily, everyday they are checked to make sure they are healthy, they go swimming trotting, They prob have a better life than you. Horse racing is not bad, never has been bad and never will be. and end of story. Everyone is intitled to their own opinion but do not say you hate people that like the sport. Thats just being judgmental

Answer 7

No,,

and done right (meaning training by pros' feeding etc ,, It;s a great sport ), and very good to watch your horse that you have trained for such a long time """WIN ""

allot goes in to the training and ,picking the right stud to breed to the right mare ,

It's not like Barrel racing at all,,We train hard and have to know allot about it

we do not Just take a horse out one day, after he has been sitting for a yr in the back yard and diceide to run him !!!

We work at it 7 days a week , we feed them to a science ,, and Know how to gallop them,, and we know who;s good or bad on that horse

It take yrs of learning how to do it right

We have Finesse , Not just whip spur, and jerk

They are breed for it and 75 0/0 percent  of the horses Love doing it ,,

Not very many have to be forced on the track ,,

I love race horses , and training them ,,

So NO,,,it is not bad

Only bad trainers and riders and or grooms
