I'm sure there are breakdowns everywhere, if my memory is correct that might even be the breakdown that I remember as well if it was in 2007. My perception of watching these races is it just doesn't happen as often as in racing in North America. Racing in Hong Kong is very similar, I have been watching racing there for pretty much the same time, horses are well taken care of over there where drugs are very much looked down upon with a zero tolerance rule.
