Reply #22: There should be a lifetime ban on milkshakes. [View All]

THere are a few stallions, all trained by the same person, who
went to stud with huge bankrolls that never should have made it
past the non winners of two category. It is basically perpetrating
fraud on the public, not only at the betting window - but also
in the breeding shed. Many of the stallions who turned out to be
dismal failures at stud were milkshake horses.

Send me a PM and I'll tell you who they are. I don't like bad
mouthing people in public, even if they deserve it. I don't need
any legal hassles.

I also hate Bute. It has been proven to tear up a horse's stomach.
Many trainers use it on a daily basis and then wonder why their
horse has ulcers. But the racing commission, in their infinite
stupidity, doesn't allow horses to run on gastro-guard, which heals
their stomach, but allows them to run on Bute. Go figure.
