so the horse gets up in the morning and voluntarily decides to head out and hop a few fences all because he wants to run faster then the other horse in the big race in March,[/quote]
Horses that fall often get up and keep jumping. They love it
yes, if you saw your family members and colleagues being shot in public for failing to win a race you’d think twice about staying down as well.
They are only shot when there is insurance money involved mickee. You’d do the same is you got a good sniff of your smelly granny’s inheritance
do you discuss big race tactics with your horse?
Horses regularly tell trainers whether they prefer going right or lefthanded, whether they prefer going a good clip, whether they prefer making all or being tucked in behind etc.
You’re dead right there bandage. Their actions speak louder than words.
i thought it was the “humane” way to “exterminate” them?
@His Holiness Da Dalai Lama was on about this “humane extermination” shit one night regarding horses, he sounded like Dr, Josef Mengele the infamous Nazi doctor who committed shocking atrocities at Birkenau, all “humane” of course.
Horses must see JP Macmanus as some type of Goebbels type character and Cheltenham is akin to Nuremburg in 1933

The more they practice, the luckier they get.
they like nothing better as well than “getting their head in front”, because they like competing of course and can win the prize of best horse
He gave him a few cracks behind the saddle
“As long as they all come back safely.” Horsey folk often say this before races but they don’t give a fuck about dead horses or paralysed pilots as long as their bet on a rigged race comes in.
What a complete beating the horsey set have taken in the last couple of pages of this thread. Hat’s off to Bandage Mickee and Balbec.

question for the horse folk,
why does the pilot feel the need to be in possession of a whip during the horse race?

Small man syndrome. Bullied all his life for being a shortarse, but he can show a dumb animal who is boss.
[Insert little known horse’s name] is the best jumper of a fence I have seen in novice ranks this year
according to @TreatyStones the horse has been educated by the human owners, is it like a Christian brothers type situation where physical force is necessary in order for the educated animal to understand thru fear?
