Racing NSW sends 21-page complaint letter to ABC about horse slaughter investigation

Racing New South Wales has written to the ABC, claiming the broadcaster's investigation into the mistreatment of racehorses breached its own standards for fairness and impartiality.

In October, the 7.30 program aired graphic footage showing former racehorses being mistreated and slaughtered at the Meramist abattoir in Caboolture, north of Brisbane.

It also aired claims that NSW racehorses had been sent to abattoirs, in breach of that state's racing rules.
