3 horses died yesterday in this one race. Maybe they need a bit of protection. 

 

Why not lower the fences and make them safer?

All in favour of that, along with a reduced field. As for banning it, this would take an Act Of Parliament, however neither of the major parties appear to be interested.

you are joking yes?  lets put bubble wrap around them and allow them to trot only!!

I know, let's have piggy back races instead!

Big men like you should compete against Axe, and others who don't see a problem; carrying jockeys with horse whips on your backs.

The rest of us could watch, and have a laugh, maybe a flutter too!

I think the fact that 3 horses had to be destroyed was a much more eloquent statement against the Grand National than the protesters achieved.

Exactly.

I know it had no effect on the heartless who believe their enjoyment comes first but,

More and more are turning against it and it's days are numbered.

One horse died in the actual main race, the other 2 died in earlier races.

 

Still far too many.

I see what you mean,  here is an idea!! Why not re introduce Gladiators fighting Lions/Tigers plus the Gladiators fighting each other to the death,  while we are at it, lets bring back, Bear baiting, **** fighting, and lets make dog fights legal. :roll:

What a great idea.

I would volunteer ab6262 to be the first gladiator in the arena but I don't think he would give us much sport.

Probably show us how to run like an Olympian, but that's all.

Absolutely

Jump racing fans should be ashamed that their pleasure costs proud animals lives.
