  • People dont send their race horses to the S-House cuz they lose a race.This video shows the people like YOU see .IM 13 and ive been going horse racing for 7 years ,ive been to 5 yards i think i know better than you. Race horses are not treated crul .When im older i plan to work with sport

    Im party fed up of people saying horse racing is curl when you people have never seen a racehorse on the gallops neghing and enjoying himself.THis viedo has NOTHING to do with horse racing

  • I was in Racing for almost 20 years. I have been honoured to have ridden some famous and amazing Race Horses in that time. I have worked with true Horsemen and i have worked with idiots ! I like to forget most of my time in Racing. I've witnessed some cruel actions from grooms, trainers, jockeys and some vets! Horses should be treated with respect they deserve. Have nothing to do with Racing now (thank god) - those who do watch and bet - have a think about what really goes on behind the scenes

  • what fucking planet are u on horse racing is not cruel it is one of the most popular sports in the world and if itwas cruel it would be made illegal it is people like you that give jockeys such a hard time it is not there fault if a horse miss jumps a jump

  • @CURTUS100 totally agree wit u  the fuckin prick that made this video knows nothing about the sport

  • Some people really need to educate themselves... Racehores

  • in some cases yes it cruel like over use of a whip i hate that.... but what most people fail to see these horses are treated like royalty you won't find a better looked after horse then in the racing industry but i see where you are coming from like in national hunt races (jumping) it's dangerous. but when you look at it in the long run when a jockey comes of a horse, the horse 9/10 keeps running wich goes to show some of the horse love racing. other wise they would just stop

  • um... this is 2 jennyt9201.... my thurobred was almost sent 2 the slauter house so dnt say that oh they go 2 good homes and mine wasent the backyard breed!!! hes worth as much as a dam house ok so yea... and i have had family in the buissness. and yes the horses 2 me r pushed farther hen they can go, or y would they fall?

  • im sorry but your video is full of misconceptions and lies.. not all people who race horses are evil. educate your self before you make videos

  • lol seriously, boohoo horsey

  • ohh you just full of shit i am a jumps jockey my self and its not cruel we have to train them to the race they are in not just go out there and do it....go find something better to do with your time

  • Oh so you dont think pumping a horse full of hormones and locking them in stall up to 22 hours a day cruel? Or feeding them such high energy grains that they get stomache ulcers. And YOU should know that over 10 thousand race horses are slaughtered every year because they didnt win enough races and were reguarded as useless. If you dont think thats cruel then you need your head tested!

  • omg you are FUCKED UP you obviously know NOTHING about horse racing, fuck, none of that shit is true. only a small few stables do that to their horses. i know SO many people in the racing industry and i KNOW racing is not cruel. the horses love to run and stretch their legs on the track. only sometimes does it end badly. now FUCK UP you obviously know fuck all about horses & racing

  • You are the fucked up one! Over 900 horses die on the track in America every year and like I said over 10,000 slaughtered because they are no more use. Ex race horses that are kept as pets often have to have training because they are so mentally stuffed up from being raced and treated like they are. If you think its not cruel then you are sick!!!

  • HAHAHAHAHA you are so fucking gaaay. dont talk to me! horse racing is a sport just like dressage, cross country, show jumping and just normal horse riding. they all have the same risks. horse racing is not cruel. they get food, exercise, outdoors, they get to run, they get well cared for... its better than how some horses get treated.

  • You jackass! race horses spend up to 22hours a day locked in a stall and when they do get out it is either to train on the track or hot walked. They get fed high energy grains which can cause stomache ulcers and eventually even cancer. You call that not cruel! No other form of horse riding treat horses like this.

    You are a sick, animal abusing bitch!

  • what the FUCK?! I abuse animals!? Fuck you. I print off petitions, make everyone sign them for "paw justice", i've owned animals ever since I was born, and i love them more than anything. that MIGHT be what happens in america or whatever, but fuck it doesnt happen here in New Zealand. fuck you, I am not a "sick animal abusing bitch"

  • @alicemrox totally agree with you :)

  • this is a load of bullshit!

  • To coin a phrase: "stop talking shit," 'nuff said.

  • Oh and this video is so untrue. You obviously know absolutely nothing about racing. Hey, I think steeple chasing is cruel - but flat racing and harness racing is fine.

  • Oh not cruel eh?

    Over 10 thousand race horses are slaughtered every year because they wernt good enough and reguarded as useless. They lead miserable lives!

  • Okay. Horse Racing is NOT cruel. It's a sport, its just like xc or sj or dressage, eventing, and whatever. Most horses I would say, love to run. Sometimes unfortunate things happen, yes the horses are young. Usually when theres an accident its because their bones etc haven't fully developed yet, so its easier for their bones to break. - But thats just racing. Its a risk to take. You must actually be a retard if your saying the horses get treated badly.

  • Okay. People are all different. Which means some treat their horses well, and some do not. Most do treat their horses well, or fairly. I wouldn't say many people treat their racehorses badly, so I don't see whats the problem. I know so many people involved in racing - its not fuckin cruel!? Whips. Blah blah. If you watch closely, whips are usually flung up beside the eye, so the horse knows its there. Yeah they do get whipped, but its racing. Get over it. Please remember-racehorses aren't pets.

  • No it's not cruel.

    My horse is an ex racehorse (alive and well may i add).

    He loves galloping and racing.

    Watch the vid response and see just how much he loves to run.

    He steeplechased and never fell or injured himself.

    Most that fall get up and live.

  • I'm not part of the racing industry but I do own an ex-racehorse. He no longer has to race but you know what? He LOVES to run. I think it's something some horses have and those that don't have it aren't usually in the racing industry very long. I think the REAL problem comes from people breeding their unproven backyard horses, causing more supply than there is demand. Horsepeople! Adopt/buy a retired racehorse, or a horse in need instead of adding to the problem by breeding "no-name" horses.

  • There are casuties in lots of sport what do you expect even athletes get injured, but if they werent racing they wud hav 2 be put down because most of them are to hot for riding horse anyway. Wat else you ment to do with them there doing sumthing that they love to do its natural for them to race against each other..

  • so the ONE race you ever went to, it just so happened that half the field had to be put down? and that makes you believe that every race turns out like that? im sure you remember eight belles, or maybe not, since you've only ever watched ONE race? what im sure you DONT know is how EXTREMELY RARE it is that a horse breaks both front legs simultaneously. and once again, these are not just my beliefs, these are FACTS. look it up.

  • my "beliefs"? how about FACTS? i work at a thoroughbred farm, we own the 2008 fastest 3 year old filly in ohio. what experience do you have in the racing industry? i would love to know.

  • people like you make the racing industry so unpleasant. have you ever actually seen FIRST HAND how racehorses are treated? since im sure you havent, the majority of racehorses are NOT pushed past their limits, they are given time off with the discovery of the slightest clue of stress or strain. for your little bit about slaughter, the horses that end up there most often are the backyard bred junk horses. the exracers go to good homes after their careers are over, good trainers CARE about them.

  • well good for u and ur "beliefs"...

  • @jennyt9201 taht's a lie. All the "trainers" care about is getting as much money of these poor animals as possible, they don't care about the horse *one bit*

  • @APersonThatIsLiving em the trainers do care about the horses. They are really well treated and well looked after. Obviously you've never been on a racing yard or know that much about racing?

  • hmmm, i want you to go and see if you can get one of these half ton animals to race around a track. Do you know why some horses don't win because they don't want to.

  • pathetic, they enjoy racing jumping e.t.c this video is completely pointless and annoys me for the reason they sont get killed they go to stud so ye

  • haha, u make me laugh with your jokes!!

  • the grand national is one of my favourite races. People like you are ruining this world. Life is cruel sunshine, evolution is "cruel". These horses are well looked after and you should sod off

  • haha, u wish mate... but i suppose one day your dreams sould come true!

  • gladly that is a fact/

  • i agree, i have a video about this to.

    whats the song?

  • so long jimmy, by james blunt

    thanks

  • There are some cruel FORMS of horse racing. but when done right its a beautiful sport. i wish you would stop talking about stuff you dont know about.

  • yes, i agree, here are SOME forms of horse racing that aren't cruel. but most, it certainly is!!!!!

  • Horses no good go to slaughter because of the Rich GREEDY BASTARDS!! Vomit on their face!

  • Do you know this? If you enter a race without a wipe you complete the race but you get band for like one day but you still get to keep your prize! So you basicly have to have a wipe! Wot is ponitless! Lol! You should be able to enter a ace without a wipe! Good! Lol! +)

  • that is just not right!!!!

  • I get your point! I dont agree with the grand national because that justs plain mean! Im gonna make a video! Like life behide the races! Because somtimes if the horses are not good enough anymore or just not good enough they somtimes kill them! Now that is like BANG OUT OF ORDER! LOL! Good video! =D

  • thanks for comment

  • You have no clue about horse racing! They dont start training it when its a foal either, get some more information before you start judging a sport you know nothing about

  • i never said they start training them when they are foals but they do train them when they are young

  • ok, well i apologise for saying that

  • apology accepted

  • nice job

  • i also think horse racing is cruel

  • This is a load of crap!

  • Fuck off

  • i would love to see a X breed foal change to a Quer horse stallion to a TB racer what bollocks!!!

    and did u see the bit when the horse jumped the fence when he didnt have a rider !!! oh dear u need to rethink why wouldn't he stop if hes not being forced??

    and it is impossible to send a race horse to slaughter as one its illegal and 2 all off the Death papers have to be signed by a qualified vet and sent to a racing head quters called weatherbys!!

    so please do some research next time !

  • you dont know what ur talkin about. you r just showing off now, they do get slaughtered if they fall and break a bone they dont bother trying to heel them they just make them to meat. and if they dont come in the top 5 in 3 races then they get slaughtered coz there no good, u need to do some reaserch not my m8 trina hw made it so think b4 u say.

  • yes but have you stopped to think that it might be kinder sometimes to not let a horse with a broken leg suffer further with 6 months of cross-tied box rest, operations, painful foundering of the undamaged leg and no guarantee of survival at the end...and you can't explain to a horse why it is going through all of this. I've seen fit TB's cross-tied for months and it is not pleasant. many of them just lose it after a few weeks, snap their leg in two and then have to be euthanased anayway.

  • I have an anser 2 that/....... have you stopped 2 think that why dont they put the horsws down not make them travel thousands of miles with broken in half legs??? and then they are in pain for over 24 hours!?

    anser that 1

  • well, that must be an American thing then: in the UK they get euthanased at the track. I agree that would be cruel is they were travelled with broken legs. The horse meat industry in the UK is virtually non-existant.

  • it happens alll over the world

  • no trust me it doesn't, I'm a final year vet student in the UK and I'm currently working a placement with a racing vet. Under the EU welfare in transport regulation, it would be ILLEGAL to transport a horse with a broken leg in connection with an economic activity (ie slaughter). There is an exemption if the horse is being transported to a veterinary practice for treatment. Not sure where your info comes from - are you from the UK/EU?

  • I'm from the uk!

    Obviously people are breaking the law then coz they do get transprted with broken legs:(!

  • i know the pics arent all the same breed of horse but u get the point don't u!!!? and the reason why the horse didn't stop is because he was a part of the racing gang!

  • Fuck off

  • The riderless horse jumped the fence because horses have an instinct to stay with the pack of horses for safety reasons, not because it wanted to jump.

  • lol... thats kinda wat i meant lol! are u against it???

  • I am against horses which are whipped to make them go faster, and when they don't win enough, are sent to the slaughterhouse. If the races were without whipping, it would not seem like a cruel sport.

  • aww. poor horses :'(
