Thousands of Horse trainers and you name 7.. One of which I know was cleared in Birchley.
I agree that anything to make money is going to have people trying to get an advantage and it's wrong but racing do a fairly good job at policing it, majority of trainers start for their love of the horse so its harsh to just ban everyone because of a few.
Some horses can't handle it your right and it sad but that's just life unfortunately. I believe most horses enjoy racing though even some that unfortunately get injured doing it.

Massive night of chasing in Sydney tonight at Wentworth park featuring the $75,000 to the winner Paws of Thunder final.
Do It from box 2 should hopefully be too good for these and I like the the $3.60 available. Some classy dogs in the race but thankfully Jungle Duece and Wow have drawn the squeeze boxes which should help my bloke out. Multi-ing that up with Fernando Hunter in the previous race at $3.80. Very unlucky not to win his heat last week and progress into the final. Bet of the night*. If your chasing a roughy I think Caroline in race 5 should go close. Currently $18 but I reckon you’ll get more betting closer to the jump.
Good luck all and happy punting

How's the live baiting racket going? It can't be policed so I assume they have all done it.Massive night of chasing in Sydney tonight at Wentworth park featuring the $75,000 to the winner Paws of Thunder final.

What happens if the greyhounds and horses refuse to be vaccinated?
Are they still allowed to race?

Live baiting is a life ban, most trainers want cash so not going to stuff up their nest egg.
I think this is bullsh-t, when a dog stops racing gwic follow up on what happen to that dog, you cannot just put it down unless the vet is dirty.Another disturbing report of greyhound racing owners killing dogs because they can't race good.

I sound like a reasonable fella who thinks treating dogs like a product to make money off is outdated and sick.
Better kill that slow dog or else we might have to pay $30 a week to feed him.
Let's breed 500 greyhounds, pick the 20 fastest, fob off 200 to the adopt a greyhound program and shoot the rest.
You can't run a business feeding useless dogs.
Do you protest about the whales and sharks and stop fishing as the hooks hurt the fish.

Nah, just animal exploitation for gambling purposes.
Great scam by the greyhound industry to fob off thousands of greyhounds to city people as pets.
They must be falling over laughing.

Greyhounds were born to race, its in their DNA. And it will never be banned because all state governments make far too much.money from revenue taxes
