British racing has reached a unique moment
We can't stop horse deaths, even if miniscule by comparison to the total racehorse and greyhound population (who face same threat)
Appeasement is a slow death for both codes. Even 1 horse death would be suffice for these warped activists seeking self gratification with virtue sigannlong posts
What should we defend?
The 71,000 racehorses and 7000 dogs
The 6 million who attend
The 5 million who love to bet on it
The 105,000 who work in the industry
The 46,000 who work in betting shops
The culture of the nation
The rights of people to go racing, or bet on it
The right of animals to run
The protection of both species
Looking at these facts - should we not be on the offence against ignorance?
