I am deeply moved by the plight of horses involved in the Grand National, a popular horse racing event. Every year, numerous horses suffer and die due to this sport, all for the sake of money betting. This is not just a personal concern; it's an issue that affects animal welfare on a broader scale.

The British Horseracing Authority reports that between 2007 and 2016, over 200 horses died on British racecourses (source: Animal Aid). The Grand National is notorious for its high casualty rate among these figures. These animals are pushed beyond their limits in pursuit of entertainment and profit - an act that is both unethical and cruel.

It's time we put an end to this practice. By signing this petition, you're not just supporting me but also standing up for countless innocent lives subjected to unnecessary suffering each year at the Grand National. Please sign this petition today and let us work together towards ending this cruel sport once and for all.
