The Race Horse Jump Racing

Australia’s sporting identity was built upon the back of colonial differentiation, sensationalist media coverage and some early Olympic success at a time when sport at the global level was still the domain of the rich and idle. The prevailing cultural identity suggests Australia still perceives itself as a ‘sports mad’ society, however, a deeper look at the statistics surrounding Australian sport would suggest this identity is not reality and that cultural identity is now drawn from a much broader field including multiculturalism, politics, academic, scientific and artistic endeavour.

Horse Racing is a gambling, sport and always has been for many years. Thousands of people each year go and watch the horseraces all over the country, even the world. There are some owners that take amazing care of their horses, making sure that they have all of the supplements that they need, they go to the vet when need, and they are properly trained to do their best at the race. Then there are some owners that just care about the fame and the money. They are the people you have to watch out for. Don’t get me wrong all race horse owners want their name to get out and the money to be going into their bank account. But, the race horse owners that just want

Sport in Australia has grown increasingly important from 1945 to the present day as more traditional sports soon expanded into a wider variety of sports with many factors contributing to this change. As a result of the war, many men wanted membership opportunities to sporting clubs to reinforce the bonding of mateship they gained during the war. As well as Australian men getting more involved in sports, migrants from European countries started arriving in Australia, they also brought with them an interest in sports and in particular soccer. As the growing popularity of soccer was introduced it increased interest in more cultures to build clubs originating from their own country impacting on Australia’s multicultural upbringing. From the 1970s

Race horses are animals and they deserve to have rights, not to be abused for human entertainment. Race horse abuse is severely cruel and harmful in so many ways. These horses should not have to suffer abuse mainly for people’s amusement or monetary gain. Thankfully there are laws that are trying to be passed and adoption groups to help end this unnecessary abuse. With the equipment the rider and trainer use, drugs they administer, health problems, and abandonment; race horses are abused daily, but there are ways to help these poor souls.

Throughout the history of American Quarter horses the main issue of the industry is the extent amount of drug usage on horses. The use of drugs on horses can help for healing and speed up the time of injury recovering, yet most of the time drugs hurt the horses. Today, this abusive action has only increased since the founding of the association. Quarter horses are jeopardized by having drugs injected in them to gain endurance and speed, but people fail to mention the risks that can occur. Injecting horses with dangerous drugs can cause heart attacks that may cause death after their race.

Ethical scandals in sports and entertainment are not rare. Whenever an ethical issue is raised, we hear it time after time; “the sport is cleaned up”. This is no exception for greyhound racing. In February 2015 ABC Australia’s current affairs programme Four Corners with the help of animal rights organisations, exposed a significant ethical issue in greyhound racing known as ‘live baiting’ in their documentary ‘Making a Killing” as a case study of unethical practice. This is where live bait such as possums, piglets and rabbits are dragged around a track to which the greyhounds are encouraged to chase and kill. Since airing, the public response has called for greyhound racing to be outlawed in Australia. This essay will critically analyse ‘Making

Tuesday November the 4th marked another Melbourne Cup, promising a day filled with champagne, crowds and colour. 1000s of spectators, staff and jockeys had lined up in the hope of cashing in on some success. Unfortunately this was not the case for the owners of Admire Rakti or Araldo, who tragically died after the race. This sudden and shocking news has re-ignited the issue of whether horse racing should be banned in Australia. Ironically this issue is driven on both sides by the same impulse: the love of the horse. Organisations including the coalition for the protection of racehorses along with animal welfare groups are concerned about the treatment and well-being of the horses. Similarly, horse owners, jockeys and staff’s main focus is the welfare of the horse.

Whether you love or loath sport, there is no denying that sport is an integral part of the Australian culture and what makes this great nation. The pride of place that sport has in the Australian culture is far from a myth.

The ancient sport of horse racing dates back thousands of years. The concept was created by Central Asian nomadic tribesmen who were the first to domesticate horses. Horse racing has been in organized sport around the world from the beginning of recorded history.

There isn't a lot of quarter horse racing in the race books of Nevada, at least not as much as thoroughbred and harness racing, but there is enough that I get an itch to make a wager. I spent some time working on this system and have found it to be profitable. It is not an angle that produces any high payouts, but it does have a high win percentage, so I'm cashing a lot of tickets.

It doesn't take long for new punters to learn that insider information is king around the race circuit. Newspapers and form guides are limited by its inability to provide information about a horse's demeanor and training progress from one day to the next. That's where having a network of reliable insiders is able to fill in the gaps.

When the horses poured through the gates of Churchill Downs for the 143rd Kentucky Derby the deep dark past of African Americans within the sport was disregarded. This year, the jockeys originated from several different nationalities: American, Mexican, French, Panamanian, and Dominican. None of the jockeys were black. Marlon St. Julien in 2000 was the first black man to place in the derby in 79 years, so this isn't unusual. But this wasn't always the way, African Americans dominated the Kentucky Derby in the 1800s, thirteen of the fifteen riders in the first Derby were African-American. In the years following the Civil War, black men were superstars in America’s most popular sport winning fifteen of the first twenty-eight Kentucky Derbys.

In 1973, Secretariat, the greatest chapman known in horse-racing history, won the Triple Crown. He was the only horse to ever grace the covers of magazines and newspapers like the Time, Newsweek, and Sports Illustrated in the same week.

The reason for this nickname was because of his coat, it was a vibrant chestnut color that could appear coppery-red in the bright sun.

Marketing a new product requires strategic planning and research into the target market. The equestrian market is vast in size and diversity and is often underestimated by businesses (Graham-Suggett, 1999: 31).
