2. Racehorses strain every bit of their bodies to the limit during a race |

The big-hearted filly could have worked itself past natural limits...bone fractures can occur during a race, and weakened bones can break when the maintenance of forward motion changes to resist momentum to stop. Not common at all, but neither is a filly who can race with the big boys.
