There have been many horses that have to be put down because of injuries on the race track. But one of the worst in recent history would be the filly Ruffian. Her leg snapped during a race and champion that she was, she kept running for several more strides until her jockey could get her stopped. It truly was one of the most horrible things I've every seen.
