Has anyone seen the last edition of Real Time on HBO? The first segment is on horse racing and it made me so very sad to watch. I actually felt nauseated. It looked at what was going on in American Horse Racing as far as horses breaking down vs.the rest of the horse racing world. It IS NOT for the faint of heart. I won't post any film footage and leave it to you to check out, perhaps on You tube. I would be interested on comments from any horse owners. Santa Anita was featured as well as other tracks. It's a story of the way we drug horses for racing. I'm sure this subject is old hat but it's just shocking to watch. Something needs to be done.

Typical hit job by the “Real Sports” team. They interviewed lots of people in the horse racing world but if you did not give them the answers they wanted then it didn’t make the show . Undoubtably horse racing has its problems and has to stop shooting itself in the foot but the vast majority of people in the business love and care for their horses . However just like society in general there are bad elements in the sport and we need to systematically weed them out
