Why bother with making sure the horse is fit enough to be put under pressure, or good enough. Or, maybe, the horse is just not of the type that can endure training. Rather than keep these 'frail' types out of the gene pool, just hit them with some generic drug, and it's all good BECAUSE, you can't be breeding all these horses and not running them simply because they just can't endure the training/activity.
