And their Racing.....

I can’t believe (actually I can, nothing is a surprise any more) that after a couple of months of it being advertised that the Corowa races would go ahead WITHOUT HORSES, that suddenly now a week and a bit out from the Melbourne Cup, suddenly they announce that the Corowa Melbourne Cup day races will go ahead, and also the Albury races on Oaks day… What does this mean, does it mean that the flood gates are being opened right before our eyes. So many people on this blogger have said that this is what will happen as soon as the big race is over.

I find this so ironic as especially at Corowa, most of the thousands who attend will say at least once during the day “oh, are there horses here” – meaning that most people don’t go for the horses, don’t care about horses; they go for the party. Most of them will be intoxicated and these are the people we are trusting to not pass along the virus to any of the horses at the track?? If I remember rightly, these vaccinated horses can still carry and spread the virus??

Then I see some FAT CAT on the telly this morning saying that racing will go ahead in Sydney on December 1, and all of their horses have been vaccinated, and this will NEVER happen to racing again – I didn’t see much consideration for the rest of the horse world in his interview!

I’m now feeling quite depressed about the state of this pathetic country, not just EI, but the fact that gambling funds so much, and gambling also destroys so many lives, and the drought. There are many wonderful people in it, however the ones that run this show appear to be greedy, nasty and self centred.

Why is EI not an Election issue??
