No, you're right Zip. It has to be over 4yrs old though, before that it's a colt. The only reason to keep a male horse "intact" is for breeding really.

Sorry Star - I'll try and slow down raftl

Racing is a vile industry where the horse is just a commodity. To race a horse at the age of two is nothing short of cruel IMHO. They are simply not up to it physically or mentally. Normal people dont even begin to break horses until they are three or even four.

Thousands of horses are bred each year and it's only the very small minority who make the grade. And when their career is over???
Hello Dandy won the National in 1984. Ten years later he was found in a field starving, suffering from rain scald & cracked hooves. There's gratitude for you!

why summer what do you actually know about the greyhound racing industry ??
yes i feel sorry for the 2 horses that died but with out racing they would never off been alive to start with...if you look back at red rums years 1973 the jumps where twice as high alot more horses died and alot fell ..you could bet on how many would finish.so the national has come along way since then IMO

your right Summer Greyhound racing is the pits, the horror stories that come from people that work at Greyhound Rescues make me sick to my stomach, Greyhound racing should be banned. mad

I think the death of the 2 horses has put me off wanting to bet on the national in future. seems a high price to pay, for the horse to die, just for the sake of a flutter. i dont bet otherwise only once a year on the national. but im sure me not betting on it wont stop the racing carriying on. why dont they make the jumps lower. also i wonder why it seems horses get put down when they are injured. most peoples pets are ther pride and joy, and they would spend any amount of money in trying to fix them. ive never understood why horses just get put down.
