Amen Brother!
Tom, that was wonderfully and passionately well stated. You are exactly right.
The soft underbelly of this industry is horrible. Is it any different now that the farms have figured out how to get more money from their studs by shipping the good ones all the way across the globe to breed to mares in Australia? Our best stallions are breeding to nearly 100 mares here and then being shipped over there to work an additional 80+ mares and then come back here and then go back there and on and on. That is too disgusting and greedy for words and many of the vets and UK (University of Kentucky) animal experts are saying the same thing. This creates the destruction of the sport which they say they support.
But then again to those who have been an "owners" in this sport, they know how much they are respected for their "investment" in the industry. Why should we see the animals treated any better?
