That's putting it as well as I have ever heard or read. And those who rely on "the famous Thoroughbred heart" in such a fashion are the reason that changes are in order, and can't happen too soon. Most owners and trainers do have the best interests of the horse at heart. So why let the bad minority sully the sport?
