Only race horses as they are useless after that other than for sticking envelopes down.

Alot of normal horses can break legs and be kept alive!

Ed, sounds a little harsh tbh, if your legs got broken would you get shot?

I'm on my way round with a baseball bat and a shotgun!

That horse is getting up, check the patch of flat sand next to it.

They only get shot if its a bad break, which during racing a lot are.

It's very difficult to heal a horses broken leg. They have been bred to have long thin legs to be agile. If they snap the only way to heal them is to suspend the horse in a cradle type thing for a few weeks until it has healed. £££££££££££££££.
