Putting them down after a broken leg is the humane thing to do most times. Not everybody has the resources to take care of a horse like they are for barbaro.If a horse can't evenly distribute it's weight on all 4 legs on a regular basis they get severe circulatory problems

Not talking about putting them down, I'm talking about racing them and putting them in situations where stuff like this happens.
