Grand National day.
For us that live and breathe horse racing, this day can be an emotional roller coaster. Excitement, nerves, frustration, upset, elation, relief.
In amongst all of it, don't forget one key truth. The annual rabble-rousers will fire their shots at our sport in pursuit of cheap publicity again, but by tomorrow morning the vast majority of them will have moved on to something else until next year.
We'll still be here, caring for and loving our horses and our sport every day.
Take a breath. Direct them to the facts (horsepwr.co.uk). Don't let them wind you up.
We've got this.

Grand National bulletin.
Celebre d’Allen had heatstroke. Staying at course tonight. Should be fine.
Broadway Boy. Vets happy. Monitoring for next 24 hours. But again very hopeful he will be okay. Connections loath to say anything quite yet just in case.

Here’s something to think about when you watch Animal Rising videos ⬇️
Watch horseracing broadcaster, Nick Luck, prove Orla’s point with Quick Maths from Animal Rising!
The British Horseracing Authority announced that the number of fatal injuries in 2019 at ‘0.2 per cent’, or ‘179 fatalities’ had increased to ‘0.24 per cent’ in 2021, with 216 deaths, which totalled more than 1 horse dying on the tracks every other day (British Horseracing Authority).
Nick Luck claimed that 99.8% of the 90,000* runners that race each year in Britain were safe after racing, but this leaves around 180 that die due to injury, or about 1 every 2.0277 days. These figures don’t include the horses that are sent to slaughter after they are retired, or the horses that die in training.
Until these beautiful creatures are free from exploitation, we will continue to advocate for their freedom, and stand up for what is right. Join us in creating a kinder world FOR ALL LIFE!
*There are only around 14,000 racehorses in the UK, so the 90,000 statistic includes the same horses running in multiple different races. With horses running in several races per year, the death rate for any individual horse is much higher than 0.2%

I’ve listened and observed a lot of what’s been spoken and written about in the last week. I’m not saying I’m right or wrong but wanted to express my own feelings on it all. Sorry it’s quite long winded.

❓Did you know that British racing employs over 6,500 people to provide constant care and attention to the 14,000 horses in training?

The Grand National annually provokes debate about horse racing and its equine participants. This year is no different with a minority branding the sport cruel; planning to protest & wanting it banned. Here’s a thread that non-racing folk may find helpful. #GrandNational (1)
