A big shout out to these four legged athletes who are copping the brunt of this putrid heat and humidity! 🥵
While we all do our very best to shield and support them through it, the reality is that some will tolerate these conditions better than others. Some will actually thrive in it, while others are simply doing their best to survive in it.
Also a big shout out to everyone behind the scenes who are getting up in the early hours, sweating through their days and doing everything they can to keep these horses comfortable, healthy and happy. It’s bloody hard going at the moment, for both horse and human!
Next time you put a bet on a horse expecting it to “just sh*t in”, please remember that these are living, breathing athletes doing their best in some pretty trying conditions.
A little appreciation and understanding for both the horses and the people who care for them goes a long way. In summary - it’s bloody hot! 🫶💙😎
