Yes, a horse could land wrong or slip, it could trip or have any manner of accident and injure one or more of it's legs. If the horse is ridden well by a well balanced rider this will go a long way to helping prevent injuries. However if the horse is used for jumping too often or any truly physical work not just jumping it will develop Arthritis in it's joints at some point in it's lifetime.

How do you tell if a horse has a broken leg?
Horses can break a leg in many ways; stumbling, galloping, races, fighting, and the most common, jumping. When a horse breaks its leg, it's in a lot of pain. The bone could be set, but your horse will always limp. But, if it does heal, it wont do much good, as the horse will still be in a lot of pain, as i said, limp, and may or may not get up at all. That's why most owners euthanize their horses, meaning, they put them down. You can look up ways a horse breaks it leg to find out more. Just be safe and gentle with your horse ;)
