It may be important to keep in mind, the Track Vet's job isn't to find the horses who won't win. Their job is to make sure that the horses are sound enough to race, or try to race, that day. Whether they win, get a small check, or run out is not important. That they not break down, esp in front or amongst other horses is. Or any that look like the physical exertion of the race could harm or kill them, more so than the risks that all racehorses (and riders) take.
