Re: [Derby] What If?
>2. What if you knew that the procedures for policing proper veterinary
practices were woefully inadequate to catch trainers who were trying to
get
around the regulations and there were many horse deaths yearly because of
the racing of unfit horses? Or because of ill-thought-out or inadequate
track maintenance. Or even if the industry was working hard to prevent
uniform standards and testing.
Suspicion of this, especially the Belief that the industry IS working
hard to prevent uniform standards and testing as evidenced by the push back
to HISA, adding in the Baffert affair has almost put me out of even
following the sport. I Rarely bet anymore, only the Breeders Cup where it
is easy $ to find or on a horse that has caught my eye. It was Always the
horses that attracted me, not the gambling.
If someone as hard core as me is considering walking away what future is
there for the sport? HISA Must be allowed to govern the game.
