"I would hate to see those beauties get hurt."

Same here. My heart is going to be in my throat for the entire race.

Does anyone remember that match race in the 70's between the filly Ruffian and Forward Pass? If I recall correctly, she was beating him and then shattered her leg. I still feel like I'm going to cry every time I think of that race.
