Great title. And oh so true. They claim to love the horses but it’s only because of the money they make them. I believe 12 horses die recently at Churchill Downs- the track even closed for awhile...

Thank you, Joan! Title adapted from Wallace's great 2004 essay Consider the Lobster - highly recommended. He was a clever and witty essayist.
