Horse Racing
 
Anyone else watch it?

Boring as hell. It's rather pointless, you don't do anything special.

Novo 27-12-2008 07:48 PM

Yes i bet as well

i won £70 the other day when kauto star won

but i lose a lot more then i win :(

Its definatley a sport you need to be at live to enjoy.
I've been once to Wolverhampton Race course it was great fun, having a bet and seeing your choice race through to win.

If your not there live, you have to have a bet, without any participation I would imagine this to be a very boring sport to watch.

I like it, but I hate it when the nice horses break their legs and are killed. It's unfair that they're forced to do it and are then hit by short men to finish first in a race.

Do they eat them after ? I love eating horse, it's amazingly tasty.

As I have said before, my Mum and Dad train racehorses as a living, so I should say when we next have our runner. (They were both Jockeys when they were younger). So yeah, I kind of know a bit, but I dont bet THAT much.

And Andy, did you see it today/yesterday? (On BBC I think)

I love the greyhounds as well

I have a theory that the white greyhounds are the fastest

i remember watching monmore and 6 white dogs won race after race

I hope they don't. I don't think I could bring myself to eat a horse. They're lovely animals.

Well I guess we only eat them in France. You should try, but it's quite expensive. It's so awesome.

I like it ... just not when they hurt themselves or are put to sleep
