TL;DR Summary

PETA has called for Bob Baffert to be banned from Pimlico after his horse, Havnameltdown, was euthanized on the track of the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico after suffering a severe ankle injury hours before the race. PETA has been critical of the ethical practices of horse racing since eight horses died at the Kentucky Derby. Baffert has been implicated in drugging scandals, the deaths of seven horses who collapsed in California, and at least 75 horses in his care have died. The animal rights group has been calling for reforms in the horse racing industry.
