At least 100 racehorses a year are executed in Ireland for being too slow, so it's always worrying when you hear that horses who have been beaten by miles at huge prices have died away from the track, as it makes you think they're likely to be one of those said 100.
If anyone knows how Leitrim Rock and Willyouwalkwithme died, please let me know because I'd love to be told they had an illness or an accident and weren't murdered for their meat!
Surely there's enough money in racing to allow these poor animals to have a happy retirement rather than a cruel execution!
