Event Description
On the 30th of August the Coalition for the Protection of Racehorses will be holding a rally at Sandown Racecourse where the Grand National Steeple and Hurdle races are to be held. Last year the Grand National Hurdle ended in tragedy with only 4 out of the 13 horses finishing the race, and two horses being killed on the track.
A rally will be held on the day to show that jumps racing is not wanted in Australia – it is blatant animal cruelty and it must be stopped. Victoria and South Australia are the only two states that still continue with jumps racing. It is legalised cruelty and we must show the Victorian Government that we won't accept animal cruelty in our state.
Already in 2009, 12 horses have been killed in jumps racing. People who 'love their horses' threatened to shoot them and cut their heads off when jumps racing was at risk of being banned in May after 3 horses died at the Warrnambool carnival. This treatment of animals cannot continue. Please join us on the day to speak up for the voiceless.

We have caused a stir this morning with the posting of this event. Our stand on Horse Rush TV is that this is a story that our viewers are interested in. We are not there to take sides but we will cover the story. This story will focus on Jumps Racing ONLY.
We have been in contact with the RSPCA this morning and they had the following to say:
"The RSPCA are advocates for animal welfare. We are 100% against Jumps Racing and want it banned."- RSPCA Media Representative Victoria.
As I will be hosting the story my opinion has no relevance. I am a horse owner and a horse lover. I also understand that jobs will be lost and that the banning of Jumps Racing will have an economic impact on the towns where these races are held. For that I am sorry.
Here are some other interesting bits I found on the internet this morning.
