Information, says the CHRB, was killed training at Los Alamitos yesterday. He was three years old and coming off his first race, Sep 3 at Del Mar. For Cal Racing, this is kill #58 on the year – with still three and a half months to go. Last year, for the entire year, the toll was 64. Reform is a ruse, safe racing a lie. Horseracing kills. Always has, always will.

They can talk about safety and reform all day long and the racing industry publications can say stupid stuff like “can’t be pinned down to one thing” and deny and deflect all day long and then continue business as usual.
If the people who gamble on racehorses would just wise-up or grow a conscience at a faster rate, wagering handle would be so low, the racetrack owners and operators would have to close another racetrack sooner rather than later.
It’s a matter of time until Los Alamitos racecourse shuts down for a lack of cheap, expendable horses to fill their racecards. It’s disgusting that anyone can be so uncaring about the human-induced suffering that innocent horses are forced to endure.
Race 1 horse #6 came in last. Guess who it was?
Nancy, are you saying that the horse named INFORMATION came in last at Del Mar on September 3, 2023…?
All 8 (EIGHT) of the other horses in that race had been raced at least once previously.
Yes
Googling “Information horse Equibase” was fruitless. Looking up race 1, Sep. 3, 2023 at Del Mar was much more productive. Thank you, Nancy.
I am so sorry, Information, that you only had three years of life, and were treated as if that life was worthless
Which day? At Los Alamitos?
I am so sorry that you had only three years of life, Information, and were treated as if that life was worthless. It wasn’t. It was precious. RIP
