How many horses die every year from racing?
Honestly, it depends on what the racing level is. If a horse lets say gets first place in one race and its owner doesnt cool him down and needs to be in the next race it will colique and die. I believe usually 1 or 2 die in every race. They may also trip and they might break there legs and when a horse breaks their leg you really should put it down...Hope this helped
