PETA will never have any major impact on the future of horse racing in the USA.

Depends on how many people they persuade.

Animal rights strikes me as a movement that progresses slowly over time. But it does progress.

Horse Racing as opposed to greyhounds is more protected from PETA and any other parties who might wish to close it down; The industry wide economic impact is huge, from feed, breeding and stable staff than greyhound kennels.


However, a lot of the economic and regulatory things at a state and track level that brought down greyhounds are similar in horse racing and while PETA probably won't be the cause of it closing in my lifetime, they will certainly be trying to advance the cause.
