The Horses are in a line and they are off 😵
Moldycrow is in the lead, then comes mokko, Bowmann is right on her tail 😛
then comes hopscotch coconut and nordlys, OHH A BAD MISTAKE at the back of the feild by frank burns oh dear he is on the floor 🙁
oh my God he looks dead :'( he was traveling fine but seemed to skid
LOOK dauvlay is spraying oil on the race track.
the leaders are coming to the first fence. MOKKO makes a fantastic jump even though bowmann has got his nose up her bum 😛
THERE IS A FALLER its SHAVIXMIR 😲 he ran straight into the fence, he looks ok and has re-joined the race 😏
Trains44 is closing on the leaders coconut is running a fine race but the leader by a length is moldycrow followed by mokko and Bowmann
There are still 38 fences to be jump't, this could take some time 🙄 and could piss you off no end 😵

They used to be shot in the bad old days I hope they dont kill injured horses anymore, but I dont know

There is a saying when horses get put down "of to the glue factory".
I don't know what that's all about though.

Really a lot of animal products are used for things you would not imagine they do. For getting certain colours they smash lice and extract the base colouring ingredient from it. Same goes for bones, where they extract gelatine (don't know if it is called the same in English, it is the stuff that makes jello or those wine gums jello-ish) from it. And making glue too. Ask any active veganist and they can probably tell you much, much more how many products (mis) use animals for ingredients.
