Commentator Richard Hoiles defends horse racing after three horses died at the Grand NationalRichard Hoiles has defended the Grand National: "If we're going to have a conversation let's base it on informed facts rather than hysteria."asked Richard Hoiles to respond to calls for an end to the sport following the deaths of three horses at the Grand National on Saturday.
Mr Hoiles asked listeners to consider the "implications" of an end to horse racing citing the number of horses in the UK, a total of forty to fifty thousand. He said that without racing, their "primary purpose" would be removed: "They are born to race that is the point of them coming into the world in the first place."
He continued: "The welfare issues that everyone really needs to address are those by the roadside...horses that are in fields with horses that aren’t capable of being kept by their owners. "If you unleash 50,000 thoroughbreds into the community you would kill far more through honest intention and endeavor than you would in twenty to twenty-five years on the race track".
