The more my wife gets involved with horses, the less I like certain aspects of it.
If you're really having a day where you're feeling too good, go to a horse auction and stick around for the loose horses. I follow a horse rescue in Colfax WI, and they will occasionally take in a thoroughbred. The older ones have lip tattoos, and usually someone will look it up and "xxx horse had this many races, took in $125,000 in total winnings" or similar, and they end up there. I say older, now they're chipped, like you would a dog or cat.
We watched Black Beauty this weekend, the 1994 version, not the Disney version, so I'm a little jaded still, even if the book the movie was based on was written 150 years ago.
It's free with ads on Plex. Some horses are still treated in a similar fashion today.
This one knows what the crop is all about.
