Yet, the one I received indicates that this is an "undertaking by the Indiana Horse Racing Commission, Indiana HBPA, Indiana Standardbred Association, ITOBA, Quarter Horse Racing Association of Indiana,...

This is why we were seeking other options (foal shares, etc.). She is currently in foal to Elusive Quality on a foal share, but tha...

CS, One of your opening statements in your initial rant was "I cannot believe that the HORSEMEN in Indiana and the racing staff consider this acceptable treatment for the ship-in horses and trainers," with my emphasis added on horsemen.
