“The Jockey Club has invoked this rule in the past and will not hesitate to do so again when appropriate. The Jockey Club maintains a long-held conviction that owners are responsible and should be held accountable for the care, well-being, and humane treatment of their Thoroughbred horses.”

The above was from the Bloodhorse article. Listening to Joe Drape from the NY Times on ATTR he didn't sound confident that anything would really be done. My question is, what does the above excerpt mean? Since Paragallo is a part owner of Unbridled Song would this affect breeding to this horse while he is under the ownership of Paragallo?

I heard him too. As he said, the action that can taken easily and immediately is for NYRA to deny stalls to Paragallo.
