No, you misunderstood me. That's not what I was saying at all. I'm saying that the claiming game is very cruel. I think what goes on with claimers should be illegal. I think it's basically cruelty to animals. They just inject their tendons and joints over and over and over again until the horses are crippled. I don't condone it any way. It's a part of racing that makes me sick. I hardly ever even watch claiming races. I never watch cheap claiming races.

So claiming races are not something that I really pay attention to these days. I know what goes on and I want nothing to do with it. In no way do I condone it.

Yes, it's Richi.
