Haven’t spent anough time to have a valid opinion on it, but What I find a bit staggering, is I’m quite chummy with a load of the equestrian girls from my uni, and there all mostly vegetarians, studying things like animal biology and whatnot, ie your quintessential pro animal rights types, yet they all go to the races constantly, when as you say on the face of it, it is a bit barbaric. I mean it’s not bullfighting but they’re essentially breeding animals for our amusement and putting them down when they get injured, seems a bit hypocritical for people who love animals.
It’s a bit different from something like crufts where you can tell the dogs absolutely fecking love it, the horses would most likely rather be on a open field somewhere chilling that being whipped and jumping.
