The article does not jump to the conclusion that you have.

"It's probably a combination of average horses, very tightly handicapped, all going round together, all trying to race on the same bit of ground."

"Yesterday was the course's 98th meeting of the year, a record for a British track. Whether this hectic schedule was undermining safety was being asked last night."

If you narrowly focus on any short period of time,(five horses killed in one month) the data is likely to lead to possible false conclusions.
