I have a problem with the entire breeding industry. The Sheikhs just make an easy target because they have the money to make things better for the actual sport of racing. It is your assessment that we as horse racing fans would be worse off without the Sheikhs that I disagree with. The owners and breeders would take a hit when the bubble burst but the sport of racing would go on without missing a beat.
