To just to clarify my position about whether horseracing is cruel or not, I don't think that horseracing is cruel to all racehorses. If you have a pretty sound horse that is in a barn of a trainer that is competent and conscientious, then I think that horse will have a pretty good life. That horse will be taken extremely good care of. In a situation like that, I don't see any cruelty. Unfortunately, most racehorses are not in situations like that.
