I have an ex-racehorse who is now an amazing hunter/jumper! I love him so much! Not all racehorses are sent to slaughter. Some are sent to be retrained. And I now have had a beautiful chestnut gelding since he was 13 and he is turning 22 this month! Not all racehorses have horrible lives.
I almost cryed seeing this on the news..... I love horses so much! And.... I just hate to see them die or there owners treat them badly.... I feel like crying right now cuz of this little film
This always makes me so sad. My trainer went to a “Failed Racehorse auction” and saw this one bay thoroughbred gelding limping in circles, and she told me that she couldn’t just leave him there , and she bought him for only $40.00. That was about 11 years ago, and now he is 34 years old, happy and healthy, and my lesson horse that taught me everything I know, and still continues to teach me more and more things, each and every lesson. This shows that all failed racehorses, injured or not, should have a second chance at life, because they all have life in them, big or small, young or old, they all have chances at/in life. ❤️🐎❤️
Sarah M it’s illegal for a racehorse to be sent to slaughter directly from the track. 80% of race horses are well cared for. Just because 20% of the race industry is bad doesn’t make the entire industry bad. Every discipline has bad and good in it, people tend to focus only on the bad.
The sound of those whips being laid on makes my heart nearly break in half! I feel so bad for all the horses being treated like that and it has to stop!! P.s: amazing video!
I used to think the racing industry was bad, and it is true that some horses are sent to slaughter or get injured. However, most horses that go to slaughter are quarter horses, I believe. In racing, there’s a certain amount of times you’re allowed to crop your horse, and most horses are prized possessions to their owners.
Seth there is a limit to using a whip in most areas. Most owners love there horses yet people only listen to the rumours and not actual facts these days. It all depends on the owner and jockey.
Most of them are like this And it’s not fatty give her hate for what is reality so if you’re going to be like this just don’t watch I come down or keep your comments to yourself
Racing isn't all guns and whips. My dad, in fact, owned race horses. None were whipped like how the media shows. Some horses are indeed drugged, abused, etc. but that isn't the case with all of them. Secretariat for example was known as the best race horse of all time. If you find the documentary on him on Netflix I totally recommend it! His owner believed that a horse shouldn't go through pain to win, Secretariat wasn't abused at all! Horses love to run, it is their nature, and being competitive is quite common in horses, of course there are some bad jockeys to take it to the extreme, but many things are restricted. This is just my opinion and I don't want it to be taken as hate, I just think it is best to know what happens behind the scenes that isn't put to press.
I think it should be stopped too people are destroying perfectly good horses and killing them, horses out there trust in humans and we just treat them like machines until they break and then they throw them out like garbage. 😡 great vid btw
rebeka jerala stop assuming that everyone knows nothing about this sport. Some horses r forced to race. I know much about this sport, I have done research.
Brooke Burt 25 horses die everyday from horse racing. Yes ur right some horses r treated well that’s how a racer won a race because all the other horses were whiped so much they couldn’t run as fast but many horses r treated like dirt
Dont believe everything internet trainers tell you. The horse racing industry is not abusive. Racing horses are worth a lot and are usually treated better than most horses. They get top quality feed and supplements. Not very many people use buzzers to get the horse going at the start of the race, that's usually just something you see in movies. Dont accuse jockeys of abuse when you've done absolutely no research.
All race horses are not abused...don't hate on a sport that you aren't a part of,im in the race industry and our horses are treated like kings and queen
Nickans Life that’s so true cus so am I and it’s nothing like what people say our horses have a 5* life style and are not slaughtered if they lose a race it’s not there fault and people don’t see that
they might have the best stables and the best food and the best halters but that don't mean they're happy just saying no hate 💕 I'm sure you don't abuse them
@@quarterhorseprofection5613 oh yes, of course, it's not like any of them experience physical and mental stress when they are about to start a race! that would be absurd! 😂 lol 💕
And does anyone know that sending racehorse to slaughter is NOT allowed by the Jockey Club? Unfortunately, some people who shouldn't own any animal break this law. The only ones to blame are these people, not entire discipline.
Some racing industries arent all bad. Yes, horses may break there legs, or are sent to slaughter, or be given drugs, but not all jockeys give them drugs. I am not saying i support the racing industry or follow it i am saying not all are bad.
In fact, racehorses are not sent to slaughterhouses. And even if they break their legs, first of all they try to cure them, and not write them off. As for heart attacks, they can happen to any horse, not just a racehorse. Racehorses usually retire after they turn 4-5 years and then they spend a beautiful life. And such horses never get separated from their mothers. They live happily as all foals do, and when they turn 2 years they start racing. The movie is really nice tho!
Thank you for uploading this video. You are spreading awareness for this cause, I thank you for that. Hopefully this video can show people what the racing industry really does.
Lol, i love how people hates on racing industry and does not notice abuse in other equestrian disciplines. That person earned a like from me for the words in the description.
Usually horses that don’t win or are retired are sent to be trained so they can be ridden off track, well from my experience. These horses are know as OTTB’s and will be sold to some person looking for a new horse. My uncle was a racer and treated his horses like family members until he died in a riding accident. However, some racers are abusive and some horses do shatter their legs and have to be put down.
Not all race horse industries are bad look at secretariat he didnt win some of his races and he wasn't abused.Not trying to be rude.But u just earned a like and a new subscriber
Wow, I never knew that the racing industry was so abusive to the horses! 😮 edit: I like the ending explaining why the video was made, but the description ruins it all.
It’s not the entire industry, it’s the people. There is a lot of good racers who care more about their horses than they care about themselves. There is a lot of race horses now being trained to be ridden off track that eventually get rehomed. Although, some racers are abusive and use illegal things like that one thing that shocks the horse. In my opinion the Tennessee walking horse industry is worse.
my story is that i got a horse she was a racehorse and some men abused her in the past so that made her too dangerous so we had to put her :C sad but true one like = hope that she rests in peace
All of you saying that horse racing is abuse, it’s really not. You guys get stuff from PETA, RaleighLinks, or Google, which let me tell you is wrong most of the time. You people never focus on the good side about racing. You people usually only focus on the good side of jumping, dressage, and shit like that, but let me tell you, there is more pain and pressure in other disciplines. For example, jumping horses, hurts their legs if they go to high. Dressage, pulling on the mouth for a stupid move. Barrel racing, can cause the horse to easily slip or crack it’s neck because of how hard they pull. Racing is not the only abusive discipline there is. The majority of racehorses are treated with care. And let me tell you this, drugging and tasering a horse is illegal. People that work at the track test the racehorses if they have been drugged and they never are. Tasering is pretty easy to notice, and whipping? You guys are absolute idiots on this topic. They can only whip the horse 7 times and once you’re in the last furlong, the max is only 5 from that 7. So all of you shut the hell up and go back to your toy horses.
Omg I role-play with this girl and she pretended to have a racehorse then when it didn't win in rp she said it was Sent To Slaughter..... I soon stopped rping with her 😅😅😅😅
This just proves how cruel we are to the horses that once carried us through, wars, races, jumping! And, this is how we treat them! It's so sad to see these horses that are innocent getting killed approximately ever day. In my opinion, it's sad to see people riding horses, they're supposed to be free and in the wild. ( sorry for any offended people who ride horses.) Anyway, failed race horses should be sent to rescue ranches. Anyway, I love your videos! 💞💓💗
This remindes me of my own horse, he always raced but when a friend did a championship with him she give him a sort of medicine so he was faster.. When he hit the finish he gets a heart attack..😭 I still love him..❤💔
its called a sedative. it makes horses more energetic, and want to run longer and more hard. Ronnie Turcotte was racing and the horse ran so hard his heart burst. but that wasnt because he was on drugs, its because he ran too hard. look, im not trying to sound rude or anything but I like racing but I don't follow it or support it. okay? I just love the movie secretariat, and your friend did something illegal. all drugs are illegal in the racing industry. drugs that are used to make a horse feel good are also illegal.
I agree, my aunt has race horses and some of them are so kind and gentle, then the go to the track, they return mean and grumpy that you cant do nothing, as soon as one of them reaches age 5 to 8 there sold to other people, i try to stop them, they always say that they love them and want to help them, thats not love if you love something you keep it not sell it when its young, its so sad seeing horses being treated like this, just because in the wild they run doesnt mean they should be forced to run on a track, they run for survival and enjoyment in the wild, theres none of that on a track except for secretariat who loved to run, still it pains me to see horses treated like this
rebeka jerala listen here, i have 30 thoroughbreds that all went to the track, i walked through there barn and every horse in there struck out, and bit anyone who was within reach, ive seen one of my favorite horse be shot on the track because he fell down and cracked his bone, so when i saw racing life is cruel i mean cruel, those people easily could have fucking helped that horse but they chose to put a damn bullet in his head in front of thousands of people so shut up you have no idea what your talking about, theres horses that love to run and theres horse who dont the ones that dont are smacked with the whip so many times that every single one of my horses are terrified of whips to where we retire them early, so when i saw track life is tough it fucking is
@@worth_5.215 i do agree! I am not trying to pick a fight or start one, i just have one thing to say, if a horse dose break a bone, the options are very limited. You can either pay for surgery or put them down. I would pay for surgery. Anyways, they should have not done that infront of the crowd, infact they shouldnt have done that at all. But yes u are right.
NorthGale Hi. Just have come here to say that the racing industry is bad. The racing industry kills sooo many horses and even if people aren’t using cruel methods to train it still can be a mentally abusive sport to a horse. Often people will use abusive tactics like tasers or whips. Even if they aren’t no other sport in the horse industry kills that many horses per year!
@@bloomingacres8587 Crops are NOT abusive. They are used to send a message. If you are talking about whips, no, they are not abusive, they are an extension of the hand and used FOR TRAINING ONLY. They are far too long to even be able to use while riding.
snowfur06 Im aware that whips and crops are two different things. Hitting a horse hard is abusive. Scientific studies have proven that a horses skin is thinner then a humans skin. Try hitting yourself even lightly with a whip. Hurts dont it?
they don't go to the slaughter if they don't win.. we say "next time better love v"or ÿou will be sent to a better home with many horses and you will get to go to the pasture for 24/7 ".. and breaking legs and having heart attacks can happen at any moment and everywhere
I've always been against horse racing,(in PC games and that it's fine) but Irl it's not! First their killing a perfectly healthy horse, and instead of killing it, maybe set it free! Horses like to run in wild herds, free.... Not on a racetrack where their forced to bolt and have to bite on those disgusting bits. I hope the horse racing industry goes down! And soon!!!
No. Releasing a racehorse, or any horse, that was never in the wild originally, is an absolutely horrible idea. Not only is it bad for the horse, it is also wasting a lot of money.
Not all of the racing industry is terrible and abusive Some people in the industry make sure their horses are healthy and treat them properly. Also, horses usually aren’t sent to slaughter but they are retrained.
WAIT WAIT WAIT!!!! This in NO WAY the whole story of a Race Horse YES some Race Horses have the story as the one you made!!! But NOT all Race Horses have that story!!! This is not a "hate comment" i am just saying what i think. But I love the edit and and the sound!!!
rebeka jerala stop being so rude. This person did rescue 2 and even if they didn’t they still understand plus ur the one who doesn’t know anything because if u actually cared for horses u would’ve understood and wouldn’t have been so mean
Bruh look at the description this video is a joke and she says there's nothing wrong whit the race industry but there is, a horse once broke its leg and it was moving on a really terrifying weird way and the human just whipped him and also, in 1 year like over 500.000 horses die due racing
wolfy_gacha. 2020 DONT support racing horses that are 2 years old or younger, doping horses. And what else the video said. It’s a terrible industry. Stop supporting it.
i think that this was well made but i don’t agree with it at all. most racehorses don’t even race. only the ones that actually have potential race. i would say that 2/5 of horses meant for the track actually race (don’t quote me on the statistics because im not a vet)
Keyword SOME not all people! And Australia in my opinion have the best facilities and way of training I only don’t approve of 2 year old racing BUT racing is not all bad SOO everyone not all racing is bad Let’s look to the good side! ❤️❤️ xx
My dad actually used to own a bit of a race horse but my dad would never send a horse for slaughter but his horse broke his leg and had to be put down 😩😩😩
Any industry can cause abuse, not all racers are abusive! 10,000 horses from ALL industries die every year, in my country and in lots of countries it is in fact illegal to slaughter a horse!! Educate yourself before jumping to conclusions
I just wanted to say, I love this short story! But most of this is inaccurate, horses do not always get killed for just not winning, it depends on the owner, and how cruel they are. My grandfather raced horses his entire life and now my uncle does, and we visit his farm every weekend, all his horses are cared for beautifully and not abused. This is a great film but I just wanted people to understand.
Hi. Just have come here to say that the racing industry is bad. The racing industry kills sooo many horses and even if people aren’t using cruel methods to train it still can be a mentally abusive sport to a horse. Often people will use abusive tactics like tasers or whips. Even if they aren’t no other sport in the horse industry kills that many horses per year! Im sure you grandfather meant no harm and was very nice to them. If the racing in your family continues try to make sure they dont get hurt. Horses are such amazing animals 💕💕
We have a off the track race horse moving to are ranch do to having wobblers. He may only do walk trot and it’s extremely sad to see. He is living his best life though an is 22 years old. He will be hanging out with are hunter jumper and other horses at the ranch. Luckily not all race horses are slaughtered.
Ok, there are good and bad sides of racing! As some people sadly do get abused some get treated very nicely! But people see past the good things and only see the crops in their hands, instead of the treats. I think this video eggagerates a̶ l̶i̶t̶t̶l̶e̶ a LOT some get sent to great homes! So come at me internet trainers 🙄 racing isn’t bad
Jules And horses Hi. Just have come here to say that the racing industry is bad.

I have a racehorse...Zalsnap .....abandoned...sold..then we brought him...he can't jump.. he is scared of whips once I showed him and he galloped away...be bucked a few times.he can up to 55k an hour..Why did they do this? to his brother??? or sisters?. I don't know..Why??.he won 7 or 6 times just why. Now he lives his life in a paddock with 3 other horses, getting ridden about every 3 days I love him More than Anything... and also he can't do trotting poles because his a flat racer..i still loved him my friends go riding on him!
I don't understand a lot of racehorses don't win but it's just because others are better! IT DEPENDS ON WHO YOU RACE WITH! Oh and btw the Racing Industry isn't bad, It's the people who own the horses and don't care about them! I understand where you are coming from but its not the Racing Industries fault what others do with their horses! (Unless its illegal)
I know this is a point you are proving, but its illegal for a race horse to be sold to slaughter, dumped on land, ect. If the horse is not fit for racing anymore and retires, it gets trained to be a riding horse for the rest of its life.
I love the message u r trying to give horse racing is really bad abuse same with some other sports but realistically horses shouldnt have leg wraps on while they are racing bc they can trip over them ive never doneracing but my friend owns an off the track horse and she was forced to go to a horse race and she cried so much so yeah thats the only thing thats realistically wrong the rest of the movie is AMAZING great work
Horses cannot trip on the leg wraps. Anyway some horses have really extensive gallop and they can hurt their front legs if their hind legs would touch.
Very sad bad very reasonable I hope all understand this story because this is what happens to them innocent animals because they aren’t good enough for people entertainment
This sort of reminds me of my video on my channel called "So, you think it's easy" I used the same music if you would like to check it out... its about equestrians and how it's really a sport and not just sitting on a horses back (btw this is amazing and you got a new sub)
lmao most of you guys dont know anything about horse racing, you probably watched ruffian movie and act like every horse dies there, learn something before you talk
I mean... Yes, bad things happen in the racing industry, but not all of it is as bad as it is portrayed here. I recommend checking doing research for yourself, but not just looking at newspaper articles, looking at the social media and websites of trainers, exercise riders and jockeys who have had real experiences with the industry.
i actually adore horse racing! in fact i work with racehorses! this was made quite a while back and was kinda just meant as a joke, but then suddenly grew becoming the most viewed video on my channel so i rlly dont wanna delete it xD
Look at the description. This isn't a joke. Working with racehorses doesn't make you seem like a better person, your original message was fine about how terrible the industry is but now you flip the switch and say it's FINE?
Lol, i love how people hates on racing industry and does not notice abuse in other equestrian disciplines. That person earned a like from me for the words in the description. The movie was to see how much karens we have that think racing is only abuse.
Its horrible how some people don't treat horses (and animals in general) like themselves. to all those crazy people: how would you like it if a horse just dumped you in a slaughter and shot you? #stopanimalabuse #stopracehorseabuse
I have an ex-racehorse who is now an amazing hunter/jumper! I love him so much! Not all racehorses are sent to slaughter. Some are sent to be retrained. And I now have had a beautiful chestnut gelding since he was 13 and he is turning 22 this month! Not all racehorses have horrible lives.
Kross011 hi! Thanks for taking the postive out of this! And yes not all or any are sent to slaughter!!
Lanie and me its illegal for ottbs to be sent to slaughter right off the track.
eilish luvr xx true I really think this vid is SAD I thought wow this is nice ehh I bit of mean oh God made me sad 😢😢😢😢
eilish luvr xx I know that Australia would never do any of this
That is soooo cool! I love Secretariat!
This is so sad, but true some many racehorses are killed, dumped on land, or worse. :( well u earned a sub
It is not true
If we ban racing we have to ban ALL horse sports.
I almost cryed seeing this on the news..... I love horses so much! And.... I just hate to see them die or there owners treat them badly.... I feel like crying right now cuz of this little film
This video is really true the racing industry has to be stopped :'(
@@islathehorsemanic8354 wth no we don't. Horse racing just makes any horse back riding abusive....
This always makes me so sad.

Malina Loves horses omg like literally 40 dollars??
Great story btw
the 'separated with mother' bit, is like the dairy industry :(
not all dairy industries are like that
As you said, race horses do get killed for being slow. Horse racing is sometimes cruel, mean and also abusive.
Sarah M it’s illegal for a racehorse to be sent to slaughter directly from the track. 80% of race horses are well cared for. Just because 20% of the race industry is bad doesn’t make the entire industry bad. Every discipline has bad and good in it, people tend to focus only on the bad.

Quarter horses are still horses who deserve to have a great life but guess what? They don't!
Some if not most owners will win many races with there horse and then sell it. Some can get millions of dollars
Going to a race or rodeo are equally as bad. So don't do etheir. But its like a drug when you do it once its hard to stop
It’s not true about if they don’t win. Some racehorse owners are veryyy nice and don’t treat their horses like this.
And, the Jockey Club doesn't allow ottbs to be sent to slaughter. The only ones to blame are some owners, not entire discipline.
Okay thx to know this she is a fat lyer
Most of them are evil
Yea some. Get it right Karin
Most of them are like this And it’s not fatty give her hate for what is reality so if you’re going to be like this just don’t watch I come down or keep your comments to yourself

It's so sad to see these horses that are innocent getting killed approximately ever day. In my opinion, it's sad to see people riding horses, they're supposed to be free and in the wild. ( sorry for any offended people who ride horses.) Anyway, failed race horses should be sent to rescue ranches. Anyway, I love your videos! 💞💓💗
You do realize that this is a game and therefore doesn't prove anything because it's not real, right?
@@rimo1267 It still represents cruelty to the animal.
Rimo it’s what happens in real life u dummy,
I saw you guys filming this. I wanted to be in it but I didn’t want to intrude.
Omg this was so sad but so good! Well done 🥺❤️
This remindes me of my own horse, he always raced but when a friend did a championship with him she give him a sort of medicine so he was faster.. When he hit the finish he gets a heart attack..😭 I still love him..❤💔
its called a sedative. it makes horses more energetic, and want to run longer and more hard. Ronnie Turcotte was racing and the horse ran so hard his heart burst. but that wasnt because he was on drugs, its because he ran too hard. look, im not trying to sound rude or anything but I like racing but I don't follow it or support it. okay? I just love the movie secretariat, and your friend did something illegal. all drugs are illegal in the racing industry. drugs that are used to make a horse feel good are also illegal.
@@brooklynreeves2112 actully sedative is used to make them sleep
The end qas so sad! :(
I agree, my aunt has race horses and some of them are so kind and gentle, then the go to the track, they return mean and grumpy that you cant do nothing, as soon as one of them reaches age 5 to 8 there sold to other people, i try to stop them, they always say that they love them and want to help them, thats not love if you love something you keep it not sell it when its young, its so sad seeing horses being treated like this, just because in the wild they run doesnt mean they should be forced to run on a track, they run for survival and enjoyment in the wild, theres none of that on a track except for secretariat who loved to run, still it pains me to see horses treated like this
thats exactly why i made the film :)
rebeka jerala listen here, i have 30 thoroughbreds that all went to the track, i walked through there barn and every horse in there struck out, and bit anyone who was within reach, ive seen one of my favorite horse be shot on the track because he fell down and cracked his bone, so when i saw racing life is cruel i mean cruel, those people easily could have fucking helped that horse but they chose to put a damn bullet in his head in front of thousands of people so shut up you have no idea what your talking about, theres horses that love to run and theres horse who dont the ones that dont are smacked with the whip so many times that every single one of my horses are terrified of whips to where we retire them early, so when i saw track life is tough it fucking is
rebeka jerala u need to stop being rude and because ur acting like this u have probably done the worst for horses and I’ve reported u twice to RUclips
@@worth_5.215 i do agree! I am not trying to pick a fight or start one, i just have one thing to say, if a horse dose break a bone, the options are very limited. You can either pay for surgery or put them down. I would pay for surgery. Anyways, they should have not done that infront of the crowd, infact they shouldnt have done that at all. But yes u are right.
CrazyCorn CrazyCorn thank you for agreeing
Not all of the racing industry is bad, but I'd assume around 50%-80% use cruel methods.
NorthGale Hi. Just have come here to say that the racing industry is bad. The racing industry kills sooo many horses and even if people aren’t using cruel methods to train it still can be a mentally abusive sport to a horse. Often people will use abusive tactics like tasers or whips. Even if they aren’t no other sport in the horse industry kills that many horses per year!
@@bloomingacres8587 Crops are NOT abusive. They are used to send a message. If you are talking about whips, no, they are not abusive, they are an extension of the hand and used FOR TRAINING ONLY. They are far too long to even be able to use while riding.
snowfur06 If you use them right they aren’t abusive but can be abusive in certain situations..
@@bloomingacres8587 Whips and crops are two VERY different things. Even hitting the horse hard is not abusive, they have very resilient skin.
snowfur06 Im aware that whips and crops are two different things. Hitting a horse hard is abusive. Scientific studies have proven that a horses skin is thinner then a humans skin. Try hitting yourself even lightly with a whip. Hurts dont it?
Lol sprit was in there
Okai so A.M.A.Z.I.N.G moral and also, lucky! you get to work with horsos!!
Ylva Eastfall ok, but she abuses horses sooo.....
they don't go to the slaughter if they don't win.. we say "next time better love v"or ÿou will be sent to a better home with many horses and you will get to go to the pasture for 24/7 ".. and breaking legs and having heart attacks can happen at any moment and everywhere
This is so sad but its true stop people like this help keep horses alive
I love how some people know that racing is bad,and other horse sports +bits and other than thangs
Lol, bits arent abusive.
I've always been against horse racing,(in PC games and that it's fine) but Irl it's not!
First their killing a perfectly healthy horse, and instead of killing it, maybe set it free!
Horses like to run in wild herds, free.... Not on a racetrack where their forced to bolt and have to bite on those disgusting bits.
I hope the horse racing industry goes down! And soon!!!
No. Releasing a racehorse, or any horse, that was never in the wild originally, is an absolutely horrible idea. Not only is it bad for the horse, it is also wasting a lot of money.
Not all of the racing industry is terrible and abusive
Some people in the industry make sure their horses are healthy and treat them properly.
Also, horses usually aren’t sent to slaughter but they are retrained.
WAIT WAIT WAIT!!!! This in NO WAY the whole story of a Race Horse
YES some Race Horses have the story as the one you made!!! But NOT all Race Horses have that story!!! This is not a "hate comment" i am just saying what i think.
But I love the edit and and the sound!!!
First off u need ALOT more subs and your right it must be stopped i rescued 2 race horses and there still nice to ride! hopefully one day it`ll stop
rebeka jerala stop being so rude. This person did rescue 2 and even if they didn’t they still understand plus ur the one who doesn’t know anything because if u actually cared for horses u would’ve understood and wouldn’t have been so mean
Educate yourself before making something like this. Go see and experience it.
I think horse competing should be stopped in general since alot of horses get injured even in western riding classes, show jumping and even dressage.
@@brierose.official I agree. We should stop all competing.
Bruh look at the description this video is a joke and she says there's nothing wrong whit the race industry but there is, a horse once broke its leg and it was moving on a really terrifying weird way and the human just whipped him and also, in 1 year like over 500.000 horses die due racing
I don’t agree with some of these comments because race horses are looked after but I get what you mean
Bunny Queen 25 horses die everyday from horse racing
And people have punched and hurt they’re horse for not winning a race
@@katelesperance5462 their*
I still love race horses, but i never knew it was so so sad
Then do your research before you go and support something next time
@@lydia_37 do not smart mouth me madam-
I agree, i support the racing industry but i do know the bad sides to it. But think about it, all equine sports can be very much abusive
wolfy_gacha. 2020 DONT support racing horses that are 2 years old or younger, doping horses. And what else the video said. It’s a terrible industry. Stop supporting it.
i cried at the end
i think that this was well made but i don’t agree with it at all. most racehorses don’t even race. only the ones that actually have potential race. i would say that 2/5 of horses meant for the track actually race (don’t quote me on the statistics because im not a vet)
And usually the ones who don't race get turned into sport horses.
this video is really true and I was going to subscribe because of this video but then I read the makers bio and turns out she thinks this is a joke
It’s sad because it’s true :(
Keyword SOME not all people! And Australia in my opinion have the best facilities and way of training
I only don’t approve of 2 year old racing
BUT racing is not all bad
SOO everyone not all racing is bad
Let’s look to the good side! ❤️❤️ xx
Yes! Thank you :`)
NorthGale yay! And btw you Aussie?!
My dad actually used to own a bit of a race horse but my dad would never send a horse for slaughter but his horse broke his leg and had to be put down 😩😩😩
not all racers hurt their horses but great vid I loved it
thank you for this i think that is sooo sooooo bad but love the vid
I feel really pity for the horses who break their legs and die just uselessly
Any industry can cause abuse, not all racers are abusive! 10,000 horses from ALL industries die every year, in my country and in lots of countries it is in fact illegal to slaughter a horse!! Educate yourself before jumping to conclusions
Please read the description, but thank you for trying to educate people who HAVE jumped to conclusions because of this video.
I just wanted to say, I love this short story! But most of this is inaccurate, horses do not always get killed for just not winning, it depends on the owner, and how cruel they are. My grandfather raced horses his entire life and now my uncle does, and we visit his farm every weekend, all his horses are cared for beautifully and not abused. This is a great film but I just wanted people to understand.
Hi. Just have come here to say that the racing industry is bad. The racing industry kills sooo many horses and even if people aren’t using cruel methods to train it still can be a mentally abusive sport to a horse. Often people will use abusive tactics like tasers or whips. Even if they aren’t no other sport in the horse industry kills that many horses per year! Im sure you grandfather meant no harm and was very nice to them. If the racing in your family continues try to make sure they dont get hurt. Horses are such amazing animals 💕💕
I cried 😭😭
I loved this ty I hate the racing industry so u earned a sub the racing horses and treated very bad 😭
where is the place oyu used for the bucther
im ding my own short so I need to know
We have a off the track race horse moving to are ranch do to having wobblers. He may only do walk trot and it’s extremely sad to see. He is living his best life though an is 22 years old. He will be hanging out with are hunter jumper and other horses at the ranch. Luckily not all race horses are slaughtered.
I liked it but just a thought if you made the text longer as I had to pause at some bits :) great though
Ok, there are good and bad sides of racing! As some people sadly do get abused some get treated very nicely! But people see past the good things and only see the crops in their hands, instead of the treats. I think this video eggagerates a̶ l̶i̶t̶t̶l̶e̶ a LOT some get sent to great homes! So come at me internet trainers 🙄 racing isn’t bad

OMG i'm cryning for thise 😥😭
Horses don’t deserve slaughter
Treat the animals like you want to be treated!💔😔
I have a racehorse...Zalsnap .....abandoned...sold..then we brought him...he can't jump.. he is scared of whips once I showed him and he galloped away...be bucked a few times.he can up to 55k an hour..Why did they do this? to his brother??? or sisters?. I don't know..Why??.he won 7 or 6 times just why. Now he lives his life in a paddock with 3 other horses, getting ridden about every 3 days I love him More than Anything... and also he can't do trotting poles because his a flat racer..i still loved him my friends go riding on him!
Also i link: ruclips.net/video/Y56POJ-C_GM/видео.html
I was like 😌to😶to😮to😠to 😡😡🤬🤬
I don't understand a lot of racehorses don't win but it's just because others are better! IT DEPENDS ON WHO YOU RACE WITH! Oh and btw the Racing Industry isn't bad, It's the people who own the horses and don't care about them! I understand where you are coming from but its not the Racing Industries fault what others do with their horses! (Unless its illegal)
my horse that I own now never made it but he was sold onto people and then i bought him so no not every horse gets sent to slaughter :)
I have saved of 6 race horse who if I did not buy would of been sent to sloughter and I loved the vid u earn a follow
I know this is a point you are proving, but its illegal for a race horse to be sold to slaughter, dumped on land, ect. If the horse is not fit for racing anymore and retires, it gets trained to be a riding horse for the rest of its life.
Exactly. A horse that cannot stand on its own legs cant go for meat, so people saying racehorses are going for meat just know shit.
i love race horses and this video
they should be given to pepole who want them and can take care of them
Its so sad but true. They don't deserve it. What's even the point of horse racing
STOP HORSE ABUSE STOP HORSE ABUSE
I love the story but can someone PLEASE TELL ME WHERE THE GIRL IN THE YELLOW HOODIE GOT HER SUNGLASSES PLEASEEEE
Global Store o,o
I love the message u r trying to give horse racing is really bad abuse same with some other sports but realistically horses shouldnt have leg wraps on while they are racing bc they can trip over them ive never doneracing but my friend owns an off the track horse and she was forced to go to a horse race and she cried so much so yeah thats the only thing thats realistically wrong the rest of the movie is AMAZING great work
Horses cannot trip on the leg wraps. Anyway some horses have really extensive gallop and they can hurt their front legs if their hind legs would touch.
Anyway read that incredible words in description ♥
Such a sad reality
Very sad bad very reasonable I hope all understand this story because this is what happens to them innocent animals because they aren’t good enough for people entertainment
What is Your editor?
She used iMovie
This sort of reminds me of my video on my channel called "So, you think it's easy" I used the same music if you would like to check it out... its about equestrians and how it's really a sport and not just sitting on a horses back (btw this is amazing and you got a new sub)
lmao most of you guys dont know anything about horse racing, you probably watched ruffian movie and act like every horse dies there, learn something before you talk
i do not wanted to end like this
i’m about to cry 😭😭😭 soon horses are gonna go extinct because of races 😭💔💔
It makes me sick to see what they do to horses if they don’t win
I mean... Yes, bad things happen in the racing industry, but not all of it is as bad as it is portrayed here. I recommend checking doing research for yourself, but not just looking at newspaper articles, looking at the social media and websites of trainers, exercise riders and jockeys who have had real experiences with the industry.
i actually adore horse racing! in fact i work with racehorses! this was made quite a while back and was kinda just meant as a joke, but then suddenly grew becoming the most viewed video on my channel so i rlly dont wanna delete it xD
This was sad but...
"Ham nom nom"
luckily with modern tech we can now save horses with broken legs and those who losse can have a nice pasture to retire in thank you 2020
Lorena Moser shut up that ain’t true. You and me both know that’s a lie
I think if the horses are cared for it ok... but if they are being hert if they lose its a hard no.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😔😔😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😔😔😔😔😔😔 true....to sad to be said....❤️
not all of racing is bad. Horses can break legs in a field, or have heart attacks jumping.
Look at the description. This isn't a joke. Working with racehorses doesn't make you seem like a better person, your original message was fine about how terrible the industry is but now you flip the switch and say it's FINE?
Lol, i love how people hates on racing industry and does not notice abuse in other equestrian disciplines. That person earned a like from me for the words in the description.
The movie was to see how much karens we have that think racing is only abuse.
Also, why wouls you kill a horse for not winning anyways?
Because they think that the horse was no worth of keeping so they kill the horse
Its horrible how some people don't treat horses (and animals in general) like themselves. to all those crazy people: how would you like it if a horse just dumped you in a slaughter and shot you? #stopanimalabuse #stopracehorseabuse
6:31 that horse won why is it being killed
Hahahah
