Typical hatchet job. I am not so sure I am of the opinion that because racing contributed billions to government (the people) for 125 years they are now entitled to be subsidized but this is an unfair article.

1 point that is very real is the foal count figures. Only 800 in 2013 is horrendous figure and doesn't bode well for the argument that higher purses and state bred dollars fuel the breeding side of the business.
