Fair to the other horses? They are race horses they are trained daily to perform for you and I to bet on. They are medicated not to feel pain. They are only fed enough to keep a certain level of weight on. They are whipped to run faster and are worked in freezing cold, they live in a 10 x 10 stall 23 hours a day. Their ears are pulled to load into a tight area and they are gelded so they can be around others. How do you ask about 20 minutes when you know all of the above happens daily?

You follow racing on 4 continents come on? Don't you mean to ask is it fair to the other owners? What the heck does a horse care? You think they all are special like Zenyatta? lol
