@horshooer if you notice the horses in this video have leather halters on and if a certain amount of pressure is applied they snap ... its the ones that are made of nylon that don't snap. and i am sure the breeders know what they are doing as these horses must be valuable as they might be the next top racehorses :)

How stupid do you have to be to leave a halter on a horse in a pasture?? You only have to see a horse reach a back foot up to scratch its ear one time to see how dangerous this is...

thats what i think, but not all people feel that way..
they typically race a horse at 2 i think, and horses dont stop growing until they are 5. there for if the slightest thing happens, such as tripping, their bones r very fragile and can break easily because they arent fully developed... and yeah owners have been known to "throw away" a horse if they arent fast enough, not competitive, etc. luckily there are many people searching for off track thoroughbreds:)
sorry for the long explanation!

cute! i hope they have a safe and awesome racing future!

I've been told by a horse-oriented friend that the racing industry races horses at too young an age, damaging them and throwing most of them away... Any truth to that?

The bay foal with the snip and star looks like a Galileo.
