Tracks are never so dangerous that most of the horses get hurt on a card. If 10% were getting hurt, that would be a really dangerous track. I don't know if the track at Prairie Meadows was dangerous or not, but knowing that some horses came back fine is hardly evidence that the track was safe.
You can ask any trainer and they will all tell you that they get more injuries when the track is too hard whether it's grass or dirt.
