PETA Fires Their Shots

This is the week of the PETA vids--less disturbing on third viewing.  Is it really news that a stable injures nearly every horse it touches--and, tries to keep them running with meds?  From racing's leaders--instead of perspective--we get their agenda of appointing a national dictator that will--based on this vid--presumably stop the injuries and thus the necessity of treatment.  Anti-lasix is woven in, of course, and the hearings in Congress.

My take:

#1 anybody that wants the Fed. Gov. controlling horse racing needs to have their head examined.

#2  racing can police itself, thank you.  We have plenty of good people to do so.

#3 Instead of "supposing" there's a problem and then constantly yelling about the supposed problems, how about proving there is a problem in the first place.  PETA showed us how to do this.

End of rant.

Training:  as of 3/25 we've been 30 days into our fast riderless workouts, now taking place every three days as we're transitioning into tack work on the two off days.  Most explosive and longest of the riderless work happened on 3/25.  4 x 2f much of it in sub-12s, and a "wow" workout by #148.  I'll post on his progress soon, and hopefully some vids.
