I don't think it would be a fun race to watch but I don't think they are doing any danger to the horses.

People are morons. I weigh 175 pounds and when I ride the horse drags me around like a blowup doll. A 147 pound impost is nothing...

It's Beulah Park, aka the worst racetrack in America. What do you expect?

You guys act like they are taking a bunch of 2YO sprinters and asking them to go 2 miles. This is a normal race for these horses, and of all the times I have watched this race (which is several) I have yet to see a horse break down. Plus, it is actually competitive in the final furlong.

Have any of you critics ever watched this race?

Lets see, we need a race for the horses who jog in the morning. Should be fun the last 1/4.

OK you win, have fun
