Safety measures must be taken to protect horses from accidents, and everything that is needed for these these races to run normally. Professionalism is always nice for the good of all, in any sport or race. This is the situation.

Everything is fine, but they should always take care of the animals, not mistreat them, take care of us at all times, they don't always think about money.

They should do their best to protect these animals , their safety should be their no1 priority , they need to respect them as well , protect their health . Thye use them for entertaining or betting reasons , they should at least care for their lives , so as for these anomals to keep on doing what they do , as they are their investment , they have to see this , if they cannot feel any sympathy for the overuse and extreme exploitation of them , to the maximum grade and level , every week or month .

Racehorses are very valuable and if they dislocate a leg it is very expensive and dangerous. Moreover, there are all kinds of problems that require seriousness and a lot of responsibility. Some people say that things will work good after Covid 19 but others say it will take a few years.

It's good to do more for the race track safety , the horses need a safety place to do the races or else they will be injured , it's just a matter of time . The deaths of these pretty animals are many , guess everything is a matter of number(s) , to take some decisions , to change things for the better , or else they leave things as they are , they don't care . And doping these poor animals so much , not caring for their health or lives at all , only caring for their best performance , the best run and race . Hopefully this law will improve things for the race horces .

Before Second World War i had horse races in my country, but after that end of this destructive armed conflict 75 years have passed, and so far it has not been the same. I don't know how to bet on horses and jockeys due to inexperience. Anyway, it's very interesting.

Personally , I wish this new ruting helps things in the right direction , protect the animals , and make the races safer . But I do not believe , ofcourse , they did this for the sake of these poor animals , they did it for their winnings , to control competition , which might have gone out of control , with excessive doping of the horses , use of meds on them , abusing rules and avoiding restrictions or fines , by moving from one region/jurisdiction to another . This is a vicious circle , one following the bad example of the other , trying to win the same or more , using new doping meds or other methods . Luckily , hopefully ,rules and laws restrain these exagerations , these uncontrolable methods , these greedy tactics by race horses owners .

This news brings attention of smaller countries, that can not bet on matches in racetrack and this publicity is very good, because people can risk for money any kind of bet, that they find attractive. Opportunities are good here if you bet on the right horse.

First of all, privileges should be given to the health of the horse, since as the statistics say 8.5 horses die during races per week, that is too much, no animal should die, since they should not treat them that way, they should take measures more drastic with everything that mistreats an animal.

Geseco, you don't have to reactivate many old threads, because because that's where i write now have almost 3 months without a week. Horse racing is interesting, sports betting can bring big money. Here chances of winning they are quite heavy, but odds are higher. Sometimes can make a fortune. Good luck.

Today today they do horse racing and what runs in money so you have to protect and they are also beautiful horses I think they should take care of the animals because that is how they earn money and they should take care of it, not for that, but that they deserve respect and care
