My point is that IMO curious inadvertently used words that made a link between the two facts ... MM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesi Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 The other aspect to this, is that 'eyes' are on the racing industry, and this sort of behaviour towards horses will be seized upon by those that wish to see the racing industry closed down. As I said, I'm not a horsey person, so I don't know what techniques are seen as acceptable around horses Even the great Sir Mark Todd sees it as okay to quite severely (in my opinion), hit a horse with a stick in order to train it. Seems to get quite brutal at 1.28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Also, there is a current trainer, who has a conviction for mistreating a horse back in 2005. Where do you draw the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freda Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 More whitewashing, IMO. We never seem to address the real issues that dog this industry, and have done so for decades now. As for 'paying a mortgage' ... ffs, no-one in head office land gave a flying fk about those folk not allowed to carry on their legitimate businesses and pay THEIR mortgages during the Covid b/s .
