Letters: Anthony Hartnett and Kenneth R Jarrett on the controversy surrounding a picture of trainer Gordon Elliott sitting astride a dead horse

Your report on the Gordon Elliott controversy, which says it has caused “incalculable” damage to the sport of horse racing, lacks all perspective . Of course Elliott’s action was in very bad taste, but the horse he was photographed sitting astride was dead and there was no cruelty involved.

Its a complete smokescreen of faux emotion to cover up the abuse of these animals when alive. “Oh we treat them so well....” bolllllox and then just whip them to death on a race track for no discernible benefit to the animal. Every person who supports this sport should be ashamed

Why is it outrageous? People eat them, we make glue from them. Is it even offensive?

Perspective is key quite right. So should your paper and all other papers ask the questions of uk and us governments? Make those people accountable for their involvement in the horrors in Yemen?
