Some life.

That's something I wouldn't want to support.

Now fair enough you do.
That's your choice and your view.

Mine is not breed them to kill them for a SO called sport in the first place.

This race has too many jumps, too many runners, is too long and has too high fences.
It's designed for cruelty and that's ALL IT IS.
In my view.

It's their job. They're earning their keep. Just as us humans do when we go out to work in dangerous jobs to earn our keep.

We train for our jobs to try and prevent accident and so do the horses. We put safeguards in place to try and prevent accidents and safeguards are put in place for the horses.

You sound like you're anti-race horse (not horse racing, the actual horse) Any other animals you discriminate against that you want to make extinct?
