@GeorgesHorses_ I never said every horse’s name and trainer was listed, I said the statistics were in black and white, which they are

@GeorgesHorses_ Message Animal Aid directly

@GeorgesHorses_ Animal Aid website, all there, in black and white

[Panther @er_panther]

@GeorgesHorses_ The Animal Aid website all carries statistics from 2021 and 2022 of racehorses still unnecessarily being sent to slaughter. Just because it isn’t being widely reported, doesn’t mean it has stopped

@GeorgesHorses_ April 2022 suspension of a trainer

[Panther @er_panther]

@GeorgesHorses_ Their ‘outrage’ doesn’t seem to have changed anything and they are in prime place to make the first steps.

[Panther @er_panther]

@GeorgesHorses_ Everyone is free to give an opinion, don’t need a following.

I did in fact read it, if you want an even harder watch, BBC Panorama The Dark Side of Horse Racing.

[Panther @er_panther]

@stumat You think that video is awful, how about watching the slaughter of racehorses who were once in the same place, all preventable if we improved the sport

[Panther @er_panther]

@KateTracey12 4,000 racehorses were slaughtered in UK and Irish abattoirs (Source: British and Irish Government), not sensational, just statistical fact

[Panther @er_panther]

@Hetti_Liz @KateTracey12 Do I agree with how it was conducted? No, but there is not many ways to get people’s attention these days, people have to be willing to listen and most won’t, so people result to methods like this because they know it will create impact

@StandUp4Racing @sagrassick @chamberlinsport @mickfitzg @AP_McCoy @itvracing @RichardHoiles @CathyGrassick @CuivsDoherty @RacingTV @nickluck @OBMRacing 4,000 racehorses were slaughtered in UK and Irish abattoirs (Source: British and Irish Government) doesn’t sound like misinformation to me?

@DJ7gaga @Abbie55555_ @sxm_26 @itvracing How long does it take to confirm a horse is dead? Dead means dead. Yes they have to wait for confirmation, but they also knew they were under increased pressure to push the welfare card today and they played on this, it hasn’t taken this long in the past

[Panther @er_panther]

@DJ7gaga @Abbie55555_ @sxm_26 @itvracing Stiffness of the muscles is also a sign of a disconnection of the messages from the brain to the muscles/nerves, early stages of death

[Panther @er_panther]

@itvracing @petescu I wish they could see the horses we send 350 miles, lame, for unnecessary slaughter, which could be fixed with 6 weeks box rest, or sent to homes to have a new purpose instead of a bullet to the head

[Panther @er_panther]

@RyanLumsden8 @sxm_26 @itvracing You can see the fallen horse on the TV coverage as the field make their way to fence 2 and now further evidence from spectator videos

@KateTracey12 Watch BBC Panorama The Dark Side of Horse Racing and still justify the treatment of these beautiful animals, a wasteful industry, thank god for ROR

[Panther @er_panther]

@KateTracey12 The purpose was not to delay but to cancel the race completely so the horses didn’t have to race at all. What’s more agitating walking around a Parade Ring or watching one of your fellow herd members being slaughtered in front of you, knowing you are next for the bullet?
