  1. Agree COMPLETELY with you Wanda. I could NOT hate these lazy animal abusers more. F**k them all.

  2. So many horses have to suffer so much pain and misery so that depraved humans can be entertained.
    This industry absolutely needs to be called out continually as the Animal Cruelty that it is and always will be no matter what incredibly stupid lies that the industry insiders tell in their attempts to keep gullible people supporting it.
    Some of their incredibly stupid lies can be found on the “Light Up Racing” website. Keep the puke bucket handy because their outright lies are truly sickening.

  3. Having seen the replay of Veronica’s Gem,it will take a miracle. She was going down the rail midpack. Lost her balance and it looked like her head hit the top of rail and slid under it. She went to raise her head and just lowered it with no attempt to get up. They deleted this race 1 from the replays quickly. I was able to find it on the site that gets replays before they dismiss them.
