Years back, I saw a race horse die on the track. It was shocking and terrible but the thing that made me the most angry was the fact it was covered up from the news... I thought the industries little secrets needed to be spread so I made this video. Enjoy. Please rate. ---------------------------------*Photos used thanks to www.peta.org, www.chai-online.org and www.fund4horses.org**Song: Linkin Park, In the End*

aww these poor horses, i always thought racing was demanding, cruel, and asked too much of them, but no one believed me. if i could, i would resuce all the ex-racehorses and give them a place where they can be happy and do as they please...

i went to a race course for my birthday thinking oh i cant wait to go there but i basiclly cried when i saw the last race a poor horse had lost its jockey and reared up at the rail like 1 metre away fom me poor thing and i could hear the slapped of the whip going onto the horses and i look really close and some of the jockeys slappd them on their stomachs.

The numbers are scary! 900 a year?! How is that not illegal? 900 horses just falling down and breaking their necks on tracks in the United States? God, there must be so many who die on tracks around the world! :[[
