Horse in athlete of the year nomination?

Question

So I realize this isn’t a serious controversy, but how do you feel about this? Maybe I’m just a crazy animal lover, but I see no problem with acknowledging an animal as an athlete and their accomplishments. Many worthy athletes don’t get nominated, so I personally don’t get why they feel the need to single out Justify, but like I said, maybe I am just being the crazy animal lover. 😆

Accepted Answer

I personally love it 🤣🤣 they work hard. now it's time for some recognition

Answer

Im not exactly sure this is what people meant when they said they want more diversity...

Answer

Lol it’s cute but pretty pointless. It’s not like the animal even knows what’s going on so it doesn’t make sense to nominate them for events like this. Made me chuckle a little tho 🤣

Answer

I’d vote for the horse just because it’s a horse lol. I like this 😂

Answer

I have some ethical issues to horse racing, but that aside it seems fine to me.

Answer

I think it is great. No where in the rules does it say the athletes need to be human.

Answer

Haha, love it 😂
I don't see it as offensive. Why can't a horse be a great athlete?

Answer

The horse trainer won 5,000 races....maybe he should have been 4th, instead of the horse? I love horses, and this made me laugh, and is not serious to me...but, just sayin!

Answer

I run barrel horses and there is no doubt they are incredible athletes but horses don’t care about awards they just love the game. And there’s tons of awards in the horse world for them

It damn they are some athletes😍

Answer

It’s adorable
