The California Horse Racing Board reports that 2-year-old The Heisman Kid “broke down” in Los Alamitos’ 3rd race November 15. “Immediately after the break,” say the stewards minutes, The Heisman Kid “appeared to break his back.” This is horseracing.

Yet another baby horse sacrificed! BROKE ITS BACK!!!
What? NO x-rays, scans, bone tests, etc revealed that this baby horse had a serious spinal issue?
These “babies” are literally racing for their lives!! This young one didn’t make it…
Human babies of all age(sic)die every day for various reasons …..some athletes some just ordinary people…
Brilliant.
Ms. Hebert, you are either idiotic or delusional…perhaps a bit of both.
The Heisman Kid breaks his back as a two year old. Where is the justice for this “baby”? There is none within the racing industry. Just another horse dying in the dirt and it happens daily at tracks throughout the country. However, all is not lost. We, as horse advocates, can break the back of the horseracing industry by not betting on the horses. Let racing die in the dirt. No tears will be shed by me as we slowly work toward that goal.
Well said, Mary!
$hame on the industry of horse racing. Severe animal abuse that is allowed all for financial gain only.
