THIRTY-FIVE casualties this week…that we KNOW of. Where are those of you that have not been confirmed dead…already standing in a KB’s pen, awaiting the trip to slaughter? Still standing in your stall at the track or training center, without diagnostics or treatment? This never ends. In another three days, there will be another list.
KEEP SHARING HORSERACING WRONGS.
