Im not trying to defend him I just hope in the hearts of every racing fan that they dont wish the worst for horses.
But I will tell you who does wish the worst for horses and that is the people who create poly. They sit by there TV's everyday watching racing. Not for the sport of it but hoping and praying to see another horse break down so they can line their pockets some more. These creeps stand to make millions off this crap and when it does fail and people finally wake up, they are the same people you will call to remove this junk. Millions more for them. This could be called the greatest scam of all time.
Im trying to take the best out of what hes saying and trying to twist it in the right dirsction for him. But it seems to me that it may take a couple of horses to break down in the process for people to open there eyes about this stuff. What happens when inept trainers and broken down horses start to pile into these tracks under false pretenses that they can run in this stuff and their horses wont break down. At least when putting a horse on the dirt track there is some accountability for trainers making sure their horse is sound. If a leg is gonna snap it will snap on poly just as well. I hope it doesnt go that far that a horse and a jockey has to die before this crap is removed.
