I would think that the more prestigious tracks would have less injuries given the owners, trainers and connections. Totally skewed the wrong way.
The above numbers are meaningless without including the total number of events (training and racing) that occurred. By event I mean each time a horse stepped on the track. Also how many of the above were due to illness or natural causes.
