Dear @GreensNSW Thoroughbred racing gives life to thousands of horses each year Without the sport they are never born You don’t care about the horse. Your job is to manipulate people’s emotions so you can extract money from them 90% of funds you raise, you keep Frauds🖕🏼

Gold Trip, Alenquer and Right You Are have all pulled up lame after today’s Melbourne Cup. After all 23 horses were initially ticked off by vets but upon cooling down vets have re-examined all runners and found those three to be lame.

Someone just said on the news that "James McDonald is the leading jockey in Australia". Have we changed, or is it me? 20 years ago I could have named several jockeys, despite having no interest in racing. They were ubiquitous. Now, none. And I've never heard of this'un?

Does anyone have a problem with a track where the fence is cast at Warrnambool? If the inside is inferior they fan and everyone gets their chance. Putting less water on the inside and then rolling the inside seems to have created a severe bias and extremely disappointing track.
