Bold you made my point for me. The casual fan doesnt understand horse inuries. That is why they will say--well you saved Barbaro, why not this horse.

I can't wait for the day when horses are no longer slaughtered.

No, I am just saying they won't even care one way or another. The race is over and then they will tune in maybe for next years KD.

If you look at Horatio Nelson, in a country where people are much more passionate about racing, they just said it was terrible and moved on. That is the way the world is.
