  • No. Look why do you think that Ruffian and Barbaro and everybody have broken legs and whatever makes them die... thats because jockeys PUSH their horses so hard in training with whips and hard training to make them able to enjoy their time at the track better cause they can run faster. I love racing until I look at the fact that the horses are forced to run so hard :(

  • @horseandbreyerluver Well I think its the media that tells you that racing is cruel because they're ignorant lol. and Ruffian died because of further injuries of waking up from anesthetics that could have been preventable if it was today. And Barbaro died from laminitis which wasn't really created at the track. and their skin is VERY thick, and many other equine sports use whips so anyone who uses them in my eyes and calls racin cruel are hypocrites. but don't buy the media, they're ignorant.lol

  • I agree with this vid!! the horses most times love the racing but still there are 370 horses a year dying from racing but like you said that's nature they could have a fall when they were wild en galopping and falling thats almost the same:)!

  • Yea. I mean its tragic, but its just nature.

    and thanks! I love racing too :)

  • What a supurb video, my father trained National Hunt horses for years, and they have the best quality of care. They are not forced to run, they do it because it comes naturaly to them, Dad had one horse who wnet backwards when the tapes went up, so they retired him and he went on to be a fabulous hunter. Hunter...well they gallop and jump but not in a competetive way, but still it's a horses natural desire! Stupid inbreds think they have the evidence to prove it's cruel, & PETA should be banned!

  • horse racin is the best lol !

see all

  • @horseandbreyerluver uh? ruffian was never forced, she was only ever whipped ionce in one race, she was never pushed, and no one knows why ruffian broke down!

  • I don't see why people think tapping a 1200 pound animal witha stick hurts them. If if these horses didnt want to race, they could easily tell us on their own. Quality Road's,way sure is effective, hahaha. As for PETA they shoul just quit trying to end horseracing. Oh yea peta has a youtube account. Send this to them!

    HORSE RACING ROCKS!!!!!

  • I love racing also though I don't get to see it much. My uncles 2nd cousin co-owns Mine That Bird... I disagree with the whipping and the young age but you know, it's part of the deal. The horses where I ride don't even start being saddle trained until they are 3 or 4. OMG, last night a tornado went through the area where my stable is!! I hope Ebony ("my" horse) is okay!

  • RidingWithRuffian has a good head on her. These horses are being treated better than a lot of people in America!! Horses love to run, and when they win, they feel great. If you've ever seen a race where the jockey falls off, the horse continues running. Why is that? THEY LOVE RACING, TOO!!! Secretariat, for example, wasn't even asked to run in the Preakness (the jockey never used the whip on him). Obviously, he enjoyed racing. Get it right, PETA freaks!

  • i agree with you compleatly horse love to run

  • well.
