“Vanned Off”: Horse required equine ambulance to get off the track; while not all end up dead, most do, as borne out by our subsequent reporting. “Bled”: pulmonary hemorrhage.
If only these morally depraved, vile, horse-exploiting people could trade places with the horses and experience the abuse, the brutality and the cruelty as the horses experience it.
