EI At Glen Logan Park
Just read the article about Glen Logan Park having EI. Well no symapthy from me or many thousands of recreational horse owners. Queensland Racing and the DPI allowed this to happen by allowing horse movement during the lock down..... Thorobreds that is. Having been a long time resident of the area where this stud is, knowing how many horses are in this area, all I can say is Qld Racing and the Dpi and the Government have blown it. There is no way this can be stopped now it is in this area and they continue to allow race horses to keep moving for any reason!!!!!
It may sound a bit harsh but my personal opinion is that there is no stopping this virus and it would be over quicker and with less cost to all involved, whether it is recreational or business, if they just lifted all movement bans and made vacination optional to those who could afford it. Some may lose valuable horses ($$$ value and just love value) but I feel it is natures way of handling things. The strong will survive!!!!
The government has implemented all this action to stop the spread... it is not working...... just let it go and get it over with so everyone can go back to there normal lives.
I am also sure that this is the approach they will take after the running of the Melbourne Cup!!!!

I agree with you christine, on the point that the TB racing Industry are the ones being protected because of the Melbourne Cup, they are trying to protect their own money making industry and to hell with the pleasure horse industry, you watch they are only trying to save them selves up to and the completion of the spring racing carnival after that they will probably throw their hands up and say ok you can all move now, we can`t contain it. They will have made their dollar. Stuff every one else. And won`t that feel like a slap in the face for all who have slogged their guts out to protect themselves and the spread to others. Sometimes I wonder if this whole situation with the government and the DPI is the blind leaving the blind.
thanks

I don;t have any sympathy for GlenLogan Stud. Who do they think they are that they can bring the number of horses in that they did and not have EI. What a risk, they gambled and lost.
If you want to be selfish and only worry about the financial losses of the breeding season i guess this is what happens. Welcome to the real world of EI. It doesn;t care how much money you have in the bank or who you are friends with.
