You're at once both blaming juvenile racing itself for any negative outcomes and giving absolution to the owners & trainers who've succumbed to the 'lure' (your word) of big early $. That my friend is every free born citizen's own decision to make. Nobody is forcing anyone to do anything. Free will Brother, free will. We were all born with it. It is ours and ours alone to exercise.

Got no problems with people making their own bed Jamie, just people who try to win debates telling porkies, you are still claiming 2YO racing has nothing to do with the some young horses falling by the wayside?

you are either a lot dumber that I thought you were or you just refuse to acknowledge that your incorrect!

I did not and have not ever said 2YO racing is evil and is soley responsible for the ruination of babies, I have said it is a factor, along with excessive prizemoney and a host of other reasons.

They banned the gun in NSW and it has greatly reduced the number of people shooting each other. To say the gun was solely responsible would be wrong, but to deny it's a factor would be equally so.
