there are so many injuries which cripple or reduce the performance. Some of the injuries i am trying to show in this blog.

YEARLINGS

Selecting the correct race horse needs a good judgement and a lot of experience. I lack both. Many times the yearlings i presume to be future champions were dud and did nothing. Also i have noticed when the owners say that it is a very costly purchase, did nothing in the races. I think that the price tag put a mental block in everyone concerned, the trainer,the vet, the jockey/riding boy and the groom. If they try hard, there is a very good chance of breaking down, so instead of breaking a very costly horse down, they just don't try to its maximum potential. I heard a few vets commenting that they are not bothered about its racing future but wants the animal to be alive, they dont mind using some medicines which would affect the future racing career.
