Boxer from Animal Farm vibes. This nation should stop the racing, the fashions on the field, the drunk bogans, the gambling, the gross profit, the animal exploitation, make it stop, all of it.

Yep, the “no one gives a f…” line is so sad and so true.
After dodging post – race drunks weaving aimlessly down the streets of Sydney’s Inner West (one of whom stood in the centre of the road challenging cars to run him over) I too wondered what this whole race thing was all about…

It’s a slippery slope FD. If we start worrying about exploiting animals for entertainment and profit then the next thing you know we would have to start thinking about how our actions affect other people. Then where would we be ?

With my luck, they will make pet food out of verema, feed it to a greyhound that I have backed, and it will die of lead poisoning from the bullet just before the 300m mark. Waterhouse must have shares in Uncle Bens.
