How is horse racing even allowed to be a sport?

It’s completely un ethical…..ive read numerous articles where they’re like “it was only a minor shin splint” is’nt this obviously caused by the trainer exhausting it..? and then after barbaro’s ankle shattered? how has this not been addressed? does anyone agree with me? i can’t belive no one’s fighting to ban horse racing.

Its people like you, that pissin’ an moanin’, that ruin the world…………………..

I’m 16, I weight 151 lbs. My life long dream is to be a horse racing jockey. Do you think it’s possible?

Here is everything you need to know to become a jockey and what they get paid. Good luck to you.
You need to be at least sixteen years of age.
The first thing you need to know is as much about horses as possible. Know breeding aspects, training, how horses run under what conditions.
Get to know the industry, trainers, hot walkers, grooms, etc. Get to know other jockeys an get tips on how they got their start.
Watch your weight. In most countries a jockey can never weigh more than 115 pounds. You have to maintain weight in order to meet weight requirements..
Most jockeys start by working in other aspects of the training process. They hot walk horses (cool them down after training) grooming and participate in exercising duties long before they actually become a jockey. They get to know the profession and decide if this is the career they want to have.
You need to go to Jockey School such as Frank Garza Jockey School in Southern California. There are also jockey schools like Chris McCarons in Kentucky..
Going to jockey school is not required, but if you are not Grandfathered into
it, it is a big plus. If you can already ride and can pass the test by the
stewards, it is not necessary.

You start by running schooling races. These are races that help you get familiarized with racing and track facilities, and prepare you to become a jockey. Often this is required before you can obtain a jockey license.
You must have a license in order to be a jockey. Most racetracks provide applications and the license is good for any racetrack within a given area. Recommendation from a trainer to jockey school is a huge plus.

Jockeys are paid on a per mount (race) basis. The fees are between $30 per mount and $100 per mount depending on the purse structure at each particular track. Those are the fees jockeys receive if they do not finish first, second or third. The jockey of the winning horse receives an amount equal to 10% of the winning owner’ s share of the total purse. (The winning owner in most states receives 60% of the total purse.) The second place jockey receives 5% of the owner’ s share of the second place purse money. (The second place owner receives 20% of the total purse in most states.) The third place jockey receives 5% of the owner’ s share of the third place purse money. (The third place owner receives 15% of the total purse in most states.) The most successful jockeys can earn over a million dollars a year. The least successful will make less the $20,000 per year. The record for purse earnings in one year by a jockey is $23,354,960.00* set by Jerry Bailey in 2003. *These are the earnings of the horses, not the jockey. As a rule of thumb, a jockey’ s real earnings are approximately 7% of the horses’ earnings.

STATISTICS PROBLEM FOR KENTUCKY DERBY?

Hello.
I’m doing a Statistics Project on if Post Position in the Kentucky Derby really matters. What kind of statistics test could I use for this. I already have a data table made out with the Post Position number of each horse that has won and the number of horses in each race.

Do you guys have any suggestions???

Thanks in advance!!

If I were you, I would do a hypothesis test with proportions. I don’t know how many positions there are in the Kentucky Derby, but let’s just say there are 20. Then you would expect that 5% of the races would go to each position (assuming there is no advantage based on position). Test the claim that the Post Position has an advantage (i.e. that the proportion of winners in the post position is greater than 5%).

In order to do a thorough examination, you should also explore how positions are assigned. Are they random? If so, then doing the hypothesis test is fairly easy. It they are not assigned randomly, then you have a much tougher task.

If you don’t know how to do a hypothesis test, then ignore everything I just said, and maybe make a bar chart with each position.

Historical happenings and incredible incidents of the Queensland turf …

Queensland Turf Club: A Place in History $49.95 Take a journey back in time as you look through the pages of this book. Award winning photographer Noel Pascoe has captured some amazing memories on film which are displayed throughout this magnificent book, beautifully accompanied by Helen Coughlans writing that shows her passion for racing and horses….

How much tax would I have to pay?

As a professional gambler who bets on horse races in Queensland, Australia, what percentage of my winnings annually do I need to pay in tax?

Thanks for any help

If you are a professional gambler, you would have a business of gambling. So any winnings would be included with your income when you complete your annual Income Tax Return. The percentage would depend on which marginal rate of tax applies to your level of total taxable income. This can range from 0% for under $6000 in taxable to income to 45% for income over $180,000 of taxable income. You may also be liable for Medicare Levy of 1.5% and Medicare Surcharge of 1%.

The ATO website has a online Income Tax calculator for you to estimate the tax payable.

Digger – Why Entered in a $20,000 Claiming Race?

Does anyone know why Rick Dutrow entered Digger, a horse who has won a number of Stakes Races, in a $20,000 claiming race? Of course he got claimed. I thought perhaps there was something wrong physically with Digger, but he won that claiming race and then he just won a starter handicap at Saratoga last week. Any ideas as to what Mr. Dutrow was thinking?
And even if he wanted to get rid of the horse, he certainly could have gotten claimed for a higher price.

I never thought of Rick Dutrow as a very logical guy!

I have to wonder if it has something to do with where the horse was running before and if the rules were changing there. Digger was an IEAH horse and they’re going drug free. Maybe Dutrow knows something about Digger… maybe he can’t run without the drugs. He could have sold for a higher price, but if he needed to be sure to dump the horse quickly.

Maybe it was a clever plan to confuse the public into believing that Big Brown is a better horse than Curlin! ??

Honestly, I don’t know.
