One for Arthur

[bullybeef]

Apologies to non racing fans here but is anyone else sickened by the news that the owner and trainer of this horse see fit to run him in another National after only recently being found to have an irregular heart beat after running very flat at Haydock.

This horse won the National a few years back winning the owner and trainer thousands of pounds.

This horse owes them nothing and should be set for a happy retirement.

Where is the welfare for this horse?

Sickening!

Surely there is an independant check on the horses prior to the race?

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
We need a ruling.

If it runs in an extreme endurance race like the national that puts a huge amount of strain on the heart I can only see one outcome I’m afraid!

What's in it for them to run a horse that's gonna die at any moment?

My hit musical based on those very events.

Arrhythmic Arthur - the only heart he couldn't fix was his own.

Racism is sickening.

You sound surprised. Regardless of the horse's heart or overall health nobody who genuinely cares for animal welfare would put them round the Grand National.

How would a Gentleman wager on such a tragic event?

 

[Diogenes the Cynic]

Scandalous that.

I'm taking this right to the top man for horse welfare.

Won't someone think of the Glue Factories in all of this?
