Like it or lump it, the various State & National Bodies should be prepared for the backlash.
The consumption of PG is set to skyrocket by way of demand from bloodied and bewildered Breeders heading home from the Sales, calling their Vets and aborting their mares en masse. There will be an ocean of mares reported negative at 42 days. Nothing surer than the sunrise.
You will not see the figures until next season or later this year but a swag of mares will show up in the missed column. No way known they carry in utero foals through to another slaughter like we saw here in Sydney on Sunday.
Congratulations to HRA, HRV & HRNSW. By way of the disgraceful lack of racing opportunities afforded 50% of the annual foal crop (i.e. fillies & mares) you've individually & collectively made a very significant contribultion towards finally killing off the Breeding Industry here in Australia. I hope you're proud of yourselves.
