I have a friend who is looking at buying this horse. Is there anyway to find out the history of the horse? Meaning is there a way to find out if he has been hurt before?
Why would someone buying a horse to jump or ride be interested in its racing record?

The person should be more interested in a vet check. They aren't going to race the horse, so what does it matter what its race record was.

Plus, if someone is buying a horse, they should know enough to be able to find out the info they need without having someone come on an internet forum asking for help.

Some of the worst people in the horse industry I've had the displeasure of dealing worth are buyers who don't know what they are doing. They want a stake winner of $8.7mil with absolutely no health issues for $87 so they can ride it around in the back yard. Pain in the a$$......
