Best state must have an ocean, for sure. I would say Texas as one w/ Cali as a close second. The worst? Gotta be North Dakota. That place is miserable with snowdrifts bigger than you can imagine. Idaho would run a close second because, c'mon, what is going on in idaho?

As far as I can tell from what I have read, technically it is not illegal anywhere in the US.  California, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Texas, and Virginia have laws that try to prevent the slaughter of horses, but the laws are not well enforced.  There are all kinds of loopholes and a great deal of horse meat from the US is exported.\n\nThese sites may help you with your debate.

Might be neither if intended for racing. There's a Horse Industry Board . . .\n\nI did a search of cases. Without my going too deeply into the question it seems to me that horses can be any of the above: pets, livestock or racing stock.\n\nThere's one case that dances around the issue without addresing it exactly: F.A, Schottroffe Trust v. Trenary, 10 Va. Cir. 21, 1986 WL 401735 (Va.Cir.Ct. 1986). But even that one is not too helpful; and no Virginia statute addresses the issue. Look for yourself at: http://leg1.state.va.us/000/src.htm\n\n\n10 Va. Cir. 21, 1986 WL 401735 (Va. Cir. Ct.)\n\nCircuit Court of Virginia, Warren County.\n\nF. A. Schottroffe Trust v. William C. Trenary, et al\n\nAT LAW NO. 7594.February 14, 1986.\n\n*1 In this case the plaintiff claims damages arising out of the trespass by the defendant's cattle on the land of the plaintiff in a "no fence" county. The Court is required to pass upon the sufficiency of Ground No. 4 of the grounds of defense setting forth the affirmative defenses of contributory negligence and unavoidable accident. Both parties have submitted authorites on those issues but the Court notes that the defendant has filed no pleading testing the sufficiency of that ground of defense and makes this ruling upon the assumption that the appropriate pleading will be filed to raise that issue.\n\nHenry H. Whiting, Judge.\n\nWarren County has declared the boundary lines of each tract of land as a lawful fence to cattle in Article 1, Section 4-1 of its Code and the effect of this is to make the owner of the animals liable for their trespasses under the provisions of Virginia Code Section 55-330, which Poindexter v. May, 98 Va. 143 , 148 (1900), says restores the common law rule "which requires the owner of animals to keep them on his own land." Tate v. Ogg, 170 Va. 95, 101 (1938), described the Poindexter holding as "...that while at common law the owner of domestic animals was required, at his own peril, to keep them on his own land, or within enclosures, the rule has been changed in Virginia, as to certain animals, including horses and cattle, by legislative action, except in those counties where a .no fence' law had been adopted under the provisions of the Code." (Emphasis added.) Tate held that turkeys were animals outside of the statutory "fence" exception to the common law, making the owner absolutely liable for their trespasses, id., at 104, but refused to grant an injunction because the trespasses were only occasional, not willful and the damages at most were of trivial and inconsequential nature, id., at 107. Minor on Real Property (Ribble's Ed.), Section 122 at page 163, cites the common law rule, including Poindexter v. May as one of his authorities as:\n\n[I]ndependently of statute, or agreement to that effect, there exists no obligation upon the owner of land to fence it in, in order to keep out trespassing persons or cattle, there being at common law an absolute obligation upon other persons to remain on their own lands or in the highways and public places, to keep their cattle there, by means of fences or otherwise. In other words, in the case of cattle and domestic animals, the common law placed the duty upon the owner of the animals to keep them upon his own land by fences or other means, and imposed no duty upon the owner of the other land to keep them out.\n\nThe Restatement of Torts echoes this same rule in Section 504 in the following language:\n\n*2 A possessor of livestock which intrude upon the land of another is liable for their intrusion and for any harm done while upon the land to its possessor or a member of his household although the possessor of the livestock exercised the utmost care to prevent them from intruding. ...The liability imposed by the rule stated in this section is based primarily upon possession of the straying livestock and not upon the quality of the possessor's conduct. The fact that he has

Chris McCarron's Kentucky Jockey School is the only one that comes to mind, but it is in KY.\n\nnews.bloodhorse.com/viewstory.asp?id=30352\n\nOther than that, I would contact Lone Star Park in Texas or Louisiana Down in LA, and ask themn where you could find such a school.

Just move to Texas. There are more ranches per capita in the state of Texas than anywhere else in the world.

The superfecta paid a North American record last year, but that bet needs substantial capital and multiple combinations.  I would prefer the daily double-pick a few horses you like in the rece immediately preceding the KD and wheel with Sweetnorthernsaint, Point Determined, AP Warrior, Brother Derek.  With a full field of 20 in the Derby should get some juicy payoffs

There are world records at all kinds of distances and surfaces- best horse on turf, over fences, etc.\nHorses race from 220 yards (a quarter mile) to 100 miles.\nIt's hard to pick the fastest horse when there is such a range! \n\nFor pure speed, world records, and impression on people at the time, the top American racehorse is probably Secretariat or Man O'War, and in the UK, Red Rum or Arkle.

I love horses, especially Peruvian Paso Horses and American Quarter Horses.\n\nPeruvians are gaited horses.  They are really smooth, and do not trot.\n\nBelow are links to more information on both breeds.

A quarter horse is one of a breed of strong horses developed in the U.S. for short-distance races, usually a quarter of a mile or less (hence the "quarter" part of the name). These horses have reportedly been clocked at 55 mph (over 88 km/H) in speed.\n\nQuarter Horses are the most popular breed in the United States, and is the largest breed society in the world. \n\nIn the 1600s, American colonists on the eastern seaboard began to crossbreed imported English horses with "native" horses. The influence of some of these thoroughbreds contributed genes crucial to the developement of the colonial "Quarter Miler," or "Quarter Mile Horse". \n\nSo the country of origin is the United States, and "Quarter Horse Racing" is the racing of horses at high speeds for short distances on a straightaway course, originally a quarter of a mile.\n\nQuarter-horse racing was begun by the early settlers in Virginia shortly after Jamestown was established in 1607. \n\nI hope this is helpful.
