His injury was a blessing for those who want to see him run and possibly achieve greatness. I never want to see a horse get seriously injured, but a minor one with a full recovery is what is needed now to have a stellar older division.

So horses are better off getting injured, even if slightly, for your "pleasure" and "those who want to see them run"? (but you never want to see a horse injured .... even though you just said you did).
I think it's understandable exactly how the perception of horse racing is in the toilet when I read stuff like this.
Well to your credit, you did say you probably shouldn't say that.
I really don't know anyone who even
thinks like this.
