Trump 2,741 Report post Posted March 22, 2019 For those of you who watched the live telecast of the G1 William Reid Stakes, I hope you were as ashamed of the commentary by Terry Bailey as I was. How many times did he pronounce “Voodoo Lad has snapped a leg!”? 4? If ever the anti-horse racing lunatics needed a spokesperson, they got it tonight. Idiot and very insensitive imho.

Kloppite 314 Report post Posted March 22, 2019 Trying to understand your logic here - if he doesn't mention it, it's like it didn't happen and the anti-horse racing brigade have nothing to concern themselves with? Don't mention the Holocaust. elvis 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have said the horse had broken down - sounds far better than his several times referring to “ snapped a leg”! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken down probably more sensitive I agree , then after it should be made clear that the horse had been euthanased as I don't think it does the racing industry any good shying away from it .
