Mangled Horses, Maimed Jockeys
The New York Times March 24, 2012 Mangled Horses, Maimed Jockeys By WALT BOGDANICH, JOE DRAPE, DARA L. MILES and GRIFFIN PALMER RUIDOSO, N.M. — At 2:11 p.m., as two ambulances waited with motors running, 10 horses burst from the starting gate at Ruidoso Downs Race Track 6,900 feet up in New Mexico’s Sacramento Mountains. Nineteen seconds later, under a brilliant blue sky, a national champion jockey named Jacky Martin lay sprawled in the furrowed dirt just past the finish line, paralyzed, his neck broken in three places. On the ground next to him, his frightened horse, leg broken and chest heaving, was minutes away from being euthanized on the track. For finishing fourth on this early September day last year, Jacky Martin got about $60 and possibly a lifetime tethered to a respirator. The next day, it nearly happened again. At virtually the same spot, another horse broke a front leg, pitching his rider headfirst into the ground. The jockey escaped serious injury, but not the 2-year-old horse, Teller All Gone. He was euthanized, and then dumped near an old toilet in a junkyard a short walk from where he had been sold at auction the previous year. In the next 24 hours, two fearful jockeys refused their assigned mounts. The track honored two other riders who had died racing. As doctors fought to save Mr. Martin’s life, a sign went up next to the track tote board: “Hang in there, Jacky. We love you.” On average, 24 horses die each week at racetracks across America.

Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action Before the U.S
Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Commerce and Consumer Protection H.R. 1754, "The Horseracing Integrity Act" January 28, 2020 On behalf of Animal Wellness Action, one of the nation's leading animal protection organizations on Capitol Hill, I submit this testimony in support of H.R. 1754, the Horseracing Integrity Act. I express my sincere thanks to Chair Jan Schakowsky and Ranking Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers for conducting this hearing and offer special thanks to Representatives Paul Tonko, and, Andy Barr for introducing this reform effort. I also express thanks to Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Frank Pallone and Ranking Member Greg Walden for their participation in this process. This hearing builds on the testimony and other information gathered during the 2018 hearing conducted before the Subcommittee on H.R. 2651 in the 115th Congress. I first want to underscore that Animal Wellness Action does not oppose horseracing. We join with many horse owners, breeders, trainers, and racing enthusiasts in speaking out on the broader topic of the protection of horses within the American horseracing industry and across the greater equine world. We seek to promote the proper stewardship of horses at every stage of their lives, including during their racing careers. We are deeply concerned about on- and off- track risks to the horses, including catastrophic injuries sustained during racing. America was built on the backs of horses, and they have always played a central role in the economy and culture of the United States. We owe them a debt of gratitude, and the very least we must do is ensure their safety, welfare, and protection.

Fashionably Late

SPARKMAN As the stud career of the late, great Storm Cat began to wind down in the early 2000s, the Kentucky breeding indus- try needed a successor as the designated young sire of sires. The obvious choice seemed to be Unbridled’s Song, who had begun his stud career brilliantly, with Breeders’ Cup Distaff winner Unbridled Elaine, Grade 1 winner Songandaprayer, and multiple Grade 2 winner Even the Score in his first crop and Grade 1 winner Buddha in his second. As recently as the middle of last year, however, the investment the breeding industry made in sons of Unbridled’s Song looked like an expensive wager gone very wrong, since Even the Score, the sire of Dullahan and Take the Points, was his only son to have sired a Grade 1 winner. That lackluster record began to improve dramatically in the last half of the year, as Unbridled’s Song’s sons First Defence, Benoit & AssociAtes Dunkirk, and Rockport Harbor all added Fashion Plate wins the Las Virgenes Stakes on Feb. 1, becoming the first Grade 1 Grade 1 winners to their stud records. winner for Unbridled’s Song’s son Old Fashioned.

36 Hours with the Ntra Safety and Integrity Alliance
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 22, 2015 36 HOURS WITH THE NTRA SAFETY AND INTEGRITY ALLIANCE Eskendereya Progeny Show Spirit It looks as though we are destined to wonder what might have been whenever we hear Eskendereya’s name. As a racehorse this son of Giant’s Causeway appeared to have the 2010 GI Kentucky Derby at his mercy, after he had won all three of his starts earlier in the year. He had been notably impressive in taking the GII Fountain of Youth S. by eight and a half lengths and the GI Wood Memorial by nine and a half. Unfortunately, just a week before The NTRA Team: Kilpack, Gates, Durenberger & Koch the Derby, Eskendereya was found to have a slight filling in his left front leg, from the ankle to the knee. Cont. p10 by Lucas Marquardt Back in 2008, the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) launched the Safety and Integrity Alliance. The goal was to promote and implement national standards for racetracks. Through a Code of Standards and an accreditation process, the Alliance addressed myriad issues: injury reporting and prevention; PERENNIAL CHAMPION HUNGRY FOR MORE safety equipment and a safer racing environment; medication Daithí Harvey talks to Irish champion jockey Pat Smullen and testing; health and safety of jockeys; aftercare and second about his career to date and his ambitions for the future. careers for retired equine athletes; and wagering security.

But having unfolded on network television on the one day the whole world was watching, the story of Eight Belles had all the elements necessary for a modem media melodrama: a female victimized by a cruel and villainous industry and ultimately ridden to her death by greedy, callous, and glory-seeking male tormentors I The American thoroughbred racing industry is plagued with numerous regulatory problems; however, it took a 2008 tragedy to bring any of these issues to light. As the 133rd running of the Kentucky Derby concluded, second-place finisher Eight Belles suffered compound fractures in both of her front ankles, requiring her immediate euthanization.

Drug Use in Racehorses, Difficulty Assigning Responsibility and the Need for a National Racing Commission
Online at www.michbar.org/aglaw Transgressing Trainers and Enhanced Equines: Drug Use in Racehorses, Difficulty Assigning Responsibility and the Need for a National Racing Commission By Kjirsten Lee Introduction From Saratoga Race Track in New York State to Santa Anita Park in California, and from Canterbury Downs in Minnesota to Gulfstream Park in Florida, horse racing spans the United States and has always been a part of American culture.1 It is known as “the sport of kings,”2 and millions of dollars change hands every year chasing “1,200-pound investment vehicles running on legs more slender than the average human’s.”3 Tragically, the sport has been tainted by the use of steroids and painkilling drugs, the administration of which masks injury and creates an unfair advantage by allowing horses to race that are not physically up to the challenge.4 Genetically built for speed, over time the Thoroughbred horse has been bred to be faster, with little concern for what might be sacrificed in return. Recently, the American general public has become more aware of the sacrifices breeders make as horses in prestigious races break down on the track.5 In 2006, Americans’ hearts stopped in their chests when Barbaro shattered his leg in the Preakness Stakes, the second jewel of racing’s illustrious Triple Crown. He was euthanized in January of 2007 when veterinarians were unable to repair his leg following multiple surgeries.6 The next year was particularly dark for racing: after watching the remarkable filly Eight Belles collapse after finishing second to Big Brown in the Kentucky Derby,7 racing fans hoped Big Brown, after winning the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes, might be the first Triple Crown champion since Affirmed in 1978.8 But hopes were dashed when the Derby and 1 See, e.g., Horse racing, Wikipedia, stating that the oldest Thoroughbred track in the United States dates back to 1665 on Long Island.

Kentucky Derby
The Legacy and Traditions of Churchill Downs and the Kentucky Derby The Kentucky Derby The Kentucky Derby has taken place annually in Louis- ville, Kentucky since 1875. It was started by Meriwether Lewis Clark, Jr. at his track he called Churchill Downs, and it has run continuously since that first race. This first jewel of the Triple Crown has produced famous winners, with thirteen of these winners gaining that Triple Crown title. Lewis limited the Derby to only 3-year old horses. The race has evolved and grown over time and has changed since its first running, remaining an important event for more than a century. Through the study of the Derby’s influential historic traditions, notable winners and horse farms in Kentucky, and its profound cultural TABLE OF CONTENTS impact, this program will identify and explore these dif- Background and History…..2 ferent aspects that all contribute to the excitement and legacy of the “most exciting two minutes in sports.” Curriculum Standards…..3 Traditions ................ 4-8 Triple Crown ............ 9 Derby Winners ........ 10-11 Notable Horse Farms….12-13 Significant Figures…...15 Bibliography………….16 Image list…………….17-18 Derby Activities…….19-22 To replicate the races he witnessed in Europe, Meri- wether Lewis Clark Jr., the grandson of explorer Wil- liam Clark, created three races in the United States that resembled those he’d attended in Europe.

The Regulation of Anabolic Steroids in Thoroughbred Horse Racing
\\server05\productn\L\LCA\16-1\LCA104.txt unknown Seq: 1 27-JAN-10 13:46 OATS, WATER, HAY, AND EVERYTHING ELSE: THE REGULATION OF ANABOLIC STEROIDS IN THOROUGHBRED HORSE RACING By Bradley S. Friedman* In May 2008, a horse named Big Brown won the Kentucky Derby, narrowly beating a filly named Eight Belles. Just as Eight Belles crossed the finish line, she collapsed and was put to her death in front of millions of viewers as a result of her two broken legs. As the world tried to make sense of the trag- edy, the prominent trainer of Big Brown casually announced that he admin- istered anabolic steroids before the race to enhance Big Brown’s performance and that he would continue to give steroids before every other race for the same reason. Thus, the issue of anabolic steroids in horse rac- ing, which had previously been confined to discussions among those in- volved in the industry, was thrust onto the national spectrum. While the use of anabolic steroids is a relatively new issue, since the death of Eight Belles thirty-two of the thirty-six racing states have passed some regu- lation of the use of anabolic steroids in racing. This Article provides an over- view of those anabolic steroid regulations in the context of the history of regulation in Thoroughbred horse racing. This Article concludes that while the current limitation on the effectiveness of anabolic steroid regulation is a lack of research and accurate laboratory testing, using a pervasive federal law might be the most effective way of ending the use of anabolic steroids in horse racing.
