Yeah, its just part of the the game with these chasers. You have to be ready for several of them to go down from tripping or exhaustion each race. Its all just part of the sport. Horrific spills and death are the norm and are accepted in each race.
why would anyone want to question whether it was advisable to let a 15 year old horse race more than 2 miles over jumps when he was off over one year with leg injuries and had been pulled up in his three previous races?
i guess the standard is as long as they're still standing, send 'em on in there.
