Thank You for Sharing With Friends!

Thank you for asking your friends to urge Kentucky Horse Racing Authority Chair Robert M. Beck Jr. to take immediate steps to prevent tragedies such as what has happened to Eight Belles


The one thing I didnt see in the petition is the getting them pumped up issue that I have...Let them run El Natural..
