I agree with nearly everything you say. We definitely are in this together, no doubt. I'll try to remember that from now on. I think the thing is, we all put our self interests first naturally.
As for the synthetic stuff, I don't think I've ever taken joy in a horse getting injured. I know I haven't. I don't like synthetics as a fan of the sport. As a bettor, at least now, I'm actually loving it. But that is neither here nor there. The only points I ever brought up about poly (or the other stuff) were to refute the ridiculous propaganda that was shoved down bettor's throats (and horsemen) with no proof whatsoever for months. Most of it, in fact, has been proven false or at the very least remains nothing but conjecture. Somehow, if you mentioned the races were boring and uninspiring, that meant you hated horses and didn't care if they were hurt, which is nonsense.

Typical of the industry.....an expert testifies that the system is inadequate, something we all know, and he's attacked by a high ranking figure in racing security.
If it wasn't so sad it would be funny. |
