Horse Racing


After the day from hell football wise, just found out that the nag I drew in the sweep at work has won!

Only bets I've had on the national before was in 1986 when West Tip won it, I was a kid and my dad give me a quid to pick a horse and it won and in 2010 when the only time I attended the race I bet on 'Don't Push It' and that came in as well.

Good end to a very bad day.

The protesters are middle class nobheads from London looking for some attention on instagram. They care about horses about as much as the punters at aintree do.

As true as that may or may not be it does not detract from the santimonious 'Won't someone think of our horses' brigade who then send their beloved horses out over 30 whip-fuelled fences of head planting, neck snapping mayhem to stroke their egos and enrich bookmakers, alcohol producers and other members of their industry.

But yes, they're all animal lovers at heart.

I would guarantee you them protesters were wearing make up made from animal products, cotton clothing made from sheep’s wool, shoes and belts made from cow’s leather. They don’t give a toss about animals, why weren’t they protesting at Cheltenham last month or the Irish National last week or Crufts or any other animal led sporting events?

The elephant in the room is that most of said horses, which are in the mainstay well (WELL) looked after, wouldn't be born if horse racing was removed.

Those alive would end up as PVA because keeping a horse is a costly business.
