Is it wrong to be saddened by the death of every racehorse that has tried, that has done their job whether they wanted to or not. Is it wrong to become emotionally attached to horses that you see at the track and for some reason they stick out from the others?

If it wasn't for the horses, where would be be? Afterall, it's called HORSEracing, or did a number of you forget that?

The horses are the backbone to this sport, but what thanks do they get? None, zip, zlich, nil point.

If you don't become emotionally attached and simply look at racehorses as betting potential, then that's fine, but don't take it out on the people that DO care.
