Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] US Team news - Laurie Durgin

But there is a difference--- hardened gamblers could care less--- But you put it on International television with 'average family' watching like the Olympics and all the 'Bambi-ites", "tree-huggers" and your average compasionate person without any horse knowledge, who just like to watch the pretty horses, much less the PETA types, and it "won't play well in Kansas".

But then many areas of the world---the view of animals as companions does not exist----Heck ,remember they EAT them in Europe---- The average American won't dream of eating a "horsey"- they like to see them shiny, fat and with little girls bobbing on them......


Can you imagine the Kentucky Derby with 2/3 of the Horses limping off
the  field ?
Won't play well in  Kansas.......

Don't bet on it--horse racing regularly hauls three-legged ones off the field, and sometimes even has to destroy them on-site and haul them off that way. Doesn't seem to deter the betting public in the slightest. And if they don't come back to run another day because they broke down, that doesn't seem to deter the betting public either.
