How Kentucky Keeps Horse Racing Deaths Secret

Last year, a mean of 10 horses per week died at U.S. Racetracks. That’s according to a racing industry organization known as The Jockey Club. Typically, statistics approximately those deaths – who owned or trained the horses-are public. That’s real California tracks like Santa Anita, which has witnessed a spate of deaths, records in New York in which the Belmont Stakes is administered tonight. It’s now not genuine, although, of Kentucky, horse racing’s domestic nation. Caitlin McGlade with the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting appeared into why this is.

CAITLIN McGlade, BYLINE: It’s weeks after the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs – the first race of the day.

(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)

UNIDENTIFIED ANNOUNCER: They’re within the gate, and they’re off.

MCGLADE:

It is also the primary race ever for Kinley Karole, a three-yr-old filly. She pulls out sluggish and trails ways at the back of p.C… When she starts to catch up, her back leg snaps. The announcer would not point it out. The Daily Racing chart says that she went incorrect. But Kinley Karole becomes euthanized. And even during a large country full conversation approximately horse racing deaths at one of the greatest storied racetracks, she never made headlines. Many states remember the identities of horses that died, as well as in which and after they died, to be public file. But in Kentucky, the pony racing capital of the arena, officials say open statistics regulation protects the commercial enterprise interests of horse running shoes and proprietors.

Racing deaths had been on the upward thrust nationally. Kentucky said 38 race fatalities last 12 months. The kingdom has particular statistics about horses dying and trains them, but it’s now not a public document. Amye Bensenhaver with the Kentucky Open Government Coalition says this makes it harder to preserve accountable some of the racing enterprise’s most significant gamers.

AMYE BENSENHAVER:

Establishing those impediments to get entry to they may be tipping the stability in the enterprise’s desire in preference to the general public’s right to know.

MCGLADE:

Kentucky’s equine clinical director told me there aren’t any public statistics identifying useless horses, and she failed to reply to other questions. So I asked to look at necropsies filed by using veterinarians. Officials said they might give the ones but with a huge caveat – they’d redact the horse’s name, in which and while it died, who owned it, and only any records to discover the horse. Why? They argued that country regulation permits them to withhold that info because they may be commonly considered private, and sharing them would place running shoes and owners at an aggressive downside.

JAMES GAGLIANO:

I query the understanding of a declaration like that.

MCGLADE:

That’s James Gagliano. He’s the president of The Jockey Club, the thoroughbred breed registry for the US and Canada. And his business enterprise encourages tracks to publish harm and death records. Churchill Downs does now not – every other reason that horse deaths in Kentucky have been shrouded in secrecy for so long.

GAGLIANO:

These are records, and there’s not anything wrong with reporting data.

MCGLADE:

So I knew as around to different states. New Jersey, domestic of the Haskell Invitational Stakes – it’s now not personal there. California – Racing Board spokesman Mike Martin had a listing from Santa Anita Park on hand.

MIKE MARTIN:

Yes. Yeah. I am probably capable of the ship that to you within the subsequent minute if you requested me for it. Yeah.

MCGLADE:

That song suspended racing after a spate of fatalities. He said I ought to find out approximately deaths at other tracks thru a public facts request. Maryland’s Racing Commission emailed me a statewide list after a quick telephone name the Monday after Preakness. And Illinois…

MICKEY EZZO:

Sure, sure.

MCGLADE:

That’s Mickey Ezzo of the Illinois Racing Board. He says competitive disadvantage does not seem to be a problem there.

EZZO:

I’ve been doing this for two decades and by no means have gotten any complaints from riders when that data changed into released to the public.
