Simply put the standardbred breed is a sturdier breed. Stronger. You don't see the kind of breakdowns in thoro and they race a ton more often.
I don't think it has anything to do with that. I think it has to do with the activity. I'm sure if you put someone on their back and raced them like thoroughbreds, you'd see them breaking down left and right.
