Patrick Battuello - President Of HorseracingWrongs - a podcast by NYS Humane Association

Patrick Battuello testified at the Public Hearing on the Welfare of Racehorses in New York State before the Senate Standing Committee on Racing, Gaming and Wagering and the Senate Standing Committee on Domestic Animal Welfare on Wednesday, June 5, 2019.

Mr. Battuello is the Founder and President of the non-profit organization, Horseracing Wrongs (https://horseracingwrongs.org/), and asserts that horse racing is immoral and must end. He stated that horse racing is an archaic non-viable gambling industry that exploits, abuses, and kills horses. An average of 137 horses die every year on NYS racetracks; 2000 horses, nationally. This does not include racehorses that die away from the racetracks and the estimated 15,000 to 20,000 shipped to slaughter in Mexico and Canada each year when no longer making money or wanted by their owners.
