Synopsis
This book explores the history of horse racing and its impact on the health and form of racehorses over the last century. The author posits that because horses are run until their legs are ruined, causing a range of inherited problems, horse racing is actually detrimental to the health of the breed. In the author's opinion, only horses with straight legs and open heels should be used for breeding purposes and racing should be restricted to horses over five years of age. The author criticizes the phrases, "you can't get perfection in anything" and "horses can't be so bad considering we beat all the world in speed over the Turf," claiming that they are used by those with a vested interest in the racing industry to excuse and, therefore perpetuate, the problems caused by over-racing.
