Horses break down on and off the track everyday. Some days are worse than others.
For several years experts have said for example that Saratoga is a very safe dirt track. Consider this experts: Many horses racing at the Spa a young and fresh reulting in fewer injuries. Yes, this is a dirt track and similar to others around the country.
Consider factors like meds, lightly raced, lightly worked and trainers playing "protect" it seems there is more to consider than just surfaces.
