Oh no! The aftermath? The poor people who've had years to move out of the industry and instead spent the last years milking it for every last penny?
Fuck 'em.

Yeah don't care about them, I hope the dogs will be well looked after though

I assume not, the whole racing industry never cared one iota when racing was legal, they care less now.

I hope the retired racers find good homes. They make sweet pets. Some are a bit funny in the head though, as their upbringing is so unnatural.
