I was watching the fingers lake race 2 yesterday with the 3 horse in the lead cleared by 3 lengths down the stretch and he broke down and hit the rail. He broke his front leg I assumed and was euthonized. Being a horse owner it is really starting to wear me down seeing it. I know its part of racing and always will be there, but I am a huge animal lover and its hard for me to watch it. I didn't watch another race yesterday and I am afraid it is starting to push me away from racing. I own 2 greyhounds now and one of my girls has a permanent limp from a broken hind leg and she has to take pain killers for the remainder of her life. She also had one part of upper ear tore off. My other greyhound had to have a trachenomtry because he got knock into a rail and damanged his throat. Both my dogs have numerous teeth broken because of racing. I havent bet on a greyhound race since i got my first one. I am afraid the horse accidents are starting to push me away also.
