It just does not seem to be in the best interest of horse racing that slaughter be allowed of thoroughbreds , imo . If it was you would , in a sense, condone the actions of irresponsible breeders and owners to send thousands of horses to the track . Have them slaughtered if they do not produce quickly only to be replaced by another candidate and yet another, most bound for slaughter if they cannot find the winners circle . I'm for responsibility in this game and slaughter should be banned .
