I don't support racing where jumps are involved, like the Grand National, where it's probably that that some of the horses will probably be harmed. However, racing on the flat, although I don't follow it myself, is a sport followed by a lot of people and it employs lots of people in different areas. Also, racehorses are well fed and cared for and they run... and horses like to run.

Fox hunting, hare coursing, dog fighting... in fact any "sport" where an animal is harmed as a part of that sport should be stopped. Today.
