    @nicck All I hear is a whiny misanthrope who has no real come back.

  2. 12Antoniobu says:

    @nicck You're just too fucking thick to come up with an intelligent response.

    @12Antoniobu If you're going to change the context of my words than eat shit and die. Kiss my firm anus.

    @horseygal131 so do i but its just part of this sport i have seen flat races and a horse has broken itss leg and had to be put down, so its not just this race

  5. jimmyg34567 says:

    @horseygal131 yep but it was a very hot day for a national day, so thats why the other horses were waterd down. but the latest is that the horses were running at a too fast pace for the size of jumps they were jumping.
    And i can see where everyone is comming from

    @xAzZa1 Are you blind? I have no dout the horses are well treated out side the track i did not say anything about that what i said was both the riders and the grand national are cruel to horses and i stick by it.

    Horses are beautiful, majestic animals that have helped and worked with us through time. The deserve apprieciation.Any horse racing drives the horses and most horse-lovers insane . The horses get made into dog food when they are 'worthless'. They rarley go to good homes. This Is HORSE-SLAUGHTER.

  8. Andy Hay. says:

    why would want horses to die ?

  9. N C-K says:

    And I find it ironic that you're basking in cutting up the horse and boiling it while calling me evil. You are clearly deranged.

  10. N C-K says:

    @12Antoniobu I have sympathy for human beings who are victims, and I give a hell of a damn what's going on in the world, whereas you probably have no idea to start off with. This jockey knew exactly what he was doing…why should I care? Why should I care about evel knievel? You haven't acknowledged that running an animal to death is even slightly immoral. You must take the bibles words pretty damn seriously, in which case you're a mindless numpty anyway.

  11. N C-K says:

    @12Antoniobu The Jockey knew what he was doing. By all means, he's the reason he's in hospital. The horses? Used like machines and discarded like them. Fuck the jockey, I have no sympathy for people willingly putting themselves in danger for such ancient, sad "entertainment".

  12. 12Antoniobu says:

    They're just horses you know. People are all worked up over a couple of dead nags and nobody gives a shit about the young jockey fighting for his life in hospital.

    On my opinion its a cruel and barbaric "sport" and it should be banned. A lot of horses dies and get injured because of the "sport". I'm danish and I have always hated steeplechase as it's cruelty to animals on my opinion. Spain and other countries finally have started to ban bull fighting … about time that Australia and England do the same.

  14. Ricky .R says:

    @escortmk112
    banned?

  15. xAzZa1 says:

    @escortmk112

    What evidence are you using to claim that a light whip hurts a muscley, well-bred horse. The horse gets treated extremely well outside of the race, and is kept very healthy.

  16. escortmk112 says:

    If not for the money this sport would and should be band. The jokey that won should have that wip put across his ass .

  17. inya1lake says:

    As a sport Steeplechasing runs a close second to bullfighting
