It's exactly the same as dogsledding....oh and tack on top facilities, round the clock care and rich owners that pay out their nose to make sure that their horses are not only healthy but in top condition-especially for racing so that they don't injure themselves. Many of these horses fly in their own private jets......how cruel.

Of course there are accidents in racing, but those are the kind of horses that would rather die on the track than sitting around in a feild doing nothing. Also, think of how many regular, companion horses die each year because of something that their owner could have prevented. I can guarantee the number of racehorses that die on the track are a good lot less.

I love horse racing. I love watching legends being made, I can't help it. I'll probably end up in the Thoroughbred business one day. Be it cruel or not, I'm hooked.

Thats true, even for the winning Grey Hounds, they retire fast at around age 5. And the owners give them up. At least fer mushing they use sled dogs until they stop running, and take care of them until they die on their own.

im not sure about horse racing but greyhound racing is plain me and cold. they starve those dogs before they race so they will want to chace the little rabbit thing,

That's not very logical, don't give the dog nutrients so they will want to run faster while their body gives out because of the lack of food.

Anyway Horse racing is great and when a horse is retired they use them to breed new racing horses. Anyway greyhound racing is only bad if like all other sports it's not regulated, I think Britain has it pretty well regulated.
