@marygoldfairy Thank you so much!!! That is what I made the video for!!!

I know they loved to run and everything...but I still feel like they were pushed too hard...most racehorses I feel like are, esp the younger ones pushed too quickly too......

amazing video, put me in tears. To the whole race dispute: what most people dont understand is that these horses loved to run. If they didnt they wouldnt have been as fast, gone as far and ran as hard as they did. People dont realize this until they have ridden a horse who does. Its sad to see them go at such a young age, but in the short years they lived they were pamperd, taken with great care and they died doing something they loved. RIP to all the TB who gave their lives to what they loved.

That's the saddest video I've ever seen...

@hannahpac that is so true most of these horses were only 3 or 4 when they died and their bones wernt even formed.

@WHISKARDI And before and after I rode her I did my best to keep her away from all the gravel because I know that rocks get lodged in the hooves and shoes and can cripple a horse. I know enough about horses and maybe you just know more. But it's not about what we know as people but what we know as beings of this world. And yes horses were made into business between the races, jumping, and breeding, owners make millions. And I just plain don't like it. I'm sorry if that offends you.

[cckat05]

@WHISKARDI No I'm not a genius about horses nor spelling and "proper" language. I'm southern so ain't is in my vocabulary. But thoroughbred have some of the most breakable legs of all horses, them and Arabians. Both of which I love to just watch frolicking in a field with tall grass and bugs. I rode a mix bred a while back who had extremely thick legs for a horse her size but she was one of the most exhilarating to ride. I had to keep her high spirit under control because she is a natural jumper

@WHISKARDI Like I said, I'm 16 and I still have so much to learn about this world. And I death is honestly not a harsh term. I have been around it since I was 7 and yes it is a despairing idea but it is a common thing that happens. Yes I do know that thoroughbred's legs are small bone a lots of muscle and tendons. I have also been around horses since I was three and have had the privileged of riding many different horses.

@cckat05 couple more points..... not so long ago henry cecil was knighted....... he is amazing. He is a horse trainer... he absolutely lives his life around these equines..... can you imagine breeding a horse, breaking it in and preparing him or her for their first race... magic moment..... I have had the upmost privelage of meeting Frankel and the man himself..Like I said im not trying to be against you but please get some knowledge first.knowledge can only come from living not just reading

[WHISKARDI]

@cckat05 the thouroughbred has always had as you call it 'skinny legs'... but do you know what there legs are madwe up of. My point to you is please do not take offence to this but you have very little understanding of this equine athlete that are born to run whether its in a field or a racetrack

[WHISKARDI]

@cckat05 Unfortunately I feel that people do not think thouroughly enough about anything today and no offence but you have no true knowledge or understanding of this beautiful equine... Another point is that you or any human will never use 90% of oxygen in your body because its scientifically imppossible lol.... Horse are flight animals and im guessing you know what that term means.... there are different breeds of horses.. from shire to arabian...

[WHISKARDI]

@cckat05 Ok... so I have read your point of view. So firstly horses were not ....( by the way weren't is an inproper word) made a buisness..... what!! they are.... it is called horse racing... something else you said the horses raced to death...... ofcourse I have noticed in races where I have also thought 'wow that horse has raced to much this season already'....but the word 'death' is a word you as a 16yr ld should seek carefully to use. We all have ideas on how to make it a better world
