On a secondary note, instead of giving the Wreath, perhaps fork over the $500,000 in prize money the horse would have earned for the 1st place finish.

It's not so much the owners or the trainers, it's the breeders. Racehorses are coveted for wine stem legs which allows them to run faster because of lower mass. As a result, breeders are producing horses with increasingly thinner lower legs, thus, more fractures.

Interesting fact. I guess, all 3 have some blood on their hands.
