Racehorse injuries

Racehorse injuries and fatalities are a side effect of training and competition. The problem with equine injuries is that they so often result in death. A 2005 study by the United States Department of Agriculture found that injuries are the second leading cause of death in horses, second only to old age.





















Anthony Van Dyck (19 May 2016 – 3 November 2020) was an Irish Thoroughbred racehorse. He was euthanized after breaking down on 3 November 2020.
