They are more likely to get injured steeplechasing and hurdling than on the flat but it's a risk that you take and it goes with the territory. However, fatalities are rare and more common in cross country eventing.

Well, hard to say. I see something every race season where I live and that on a day I go, so, I am sure I miss some things. Most times the Jockey know how to dismount when trouble start, but, there a few get hurt. More times the horse is hurt, and that not every time.
I tried to find you some Statistics, but, maybe I not searching correct. Sorry.

you have already got some large solutions right here.. no remember if to handle or euthanize a horse with a broken leg relies upon on many components, it at times is an argument of the price, some will pay any cost on a similar time as others pay what they might handle to pay for. although, some fractures are merely no longer treatable and can be much less probably to heal with the aid of dissimilar or compound fractures or the two, they are merely too perplexing to regulate. some horses, like the overdue, large Ruffian case in point, are actually unable to stay calm after surgical treatment, and injured themselves from inconsistently thrashing approximately inflicting the harm to grow to be worse inflicting much extra subject concerns. some do stay calm yet are actually unable to get interior the direction of the long therapeutic technique it takes. A broken leg is gloomy and an exceedingly extreme harm for horses, I have confidence the perfect selection would be made in spite of everything, with first being interior the perfect interest of the pony, weighing all circumstances is fundamental.

If you took every track across North American and applied your answer, I would sadly say a jockey gets injured once a day. Of course, this depends on how you define injury, too.
