Horse racing is very dangerous and can cause many injuries including broken bones and even death at some points. If you own horses, please do not race so you will not be devastated and your horse will not be hurt. Horse racing is very harmful!
Well yes and no. Anything to do with horses can be considered Equestrianism, but many people consider racing different from 'regular' horse sports.
In horse racing for 2007 there were nearly 72 thousand that started.

Many breeds are used for racing.
