Same here. I used the link that PA provided, but didn't see a particular need to post in the thread.

You're never going to know in "real-time" which trainers, vets, tracks, etc. are doing their best or not doing their best when it comes to taking care of the horses in their charge.

So, you have two choices. Abandon the game entirely, or accept the fact that in all walks of life, you have good people and you have not-so-good people in charge of the welfare of the elderly, of children and of animals.

I don't see the point of going through all the trouble of figuring out which tracks are better than others and then "boycotting" the "bad ones."

Most of the time you'll probably be wrong in your assessment due to lack of information or guilty of misinterpretation of the information you do have.

There you have it. Hope I saved some of you some time.

I wouldn't have expected you to have an emotional reaction. Interesting.

One "emotional reaction" deserves another...IMO.
