Not Ranked
I know nothing about horses but I do know that the horse racing industry wouldn't exist if it were not for the betting involved.
I have an aquaintance that got involved in horse racing several years back. He owned 6 or 7 trotters or pacers. He lost in excess of a million dollars in 2 or 3 years before he realized that virtually everyone in the business was a crook. He never mentioned anything about the horses being badly treated except that some would get juiced up when the odds were right. A horse that hadn't won a race all year would all of a sudden run the race of it's life and pay big dollars.
