If you need medication to race you shouldn't race. Right now very unsound horses can compete at all levels because they have medications to mask the pain.

Then you get unsound horses just producing more unsound horses.

Vindication was unsound and I assume he will produce plenty of unsound horses.
So there are no breakdowns in germany?

"Very unsound horses can compete at all levels because of medication?"
This is not true.

"Unsound horses " is not a catagory of horses. If you fall down and break your arm should you not be able to reproduce because you are unsound?
This type of thinking is not only stupid, is it totally without merit.
