Summary
New York Times reporter Melissa Hoppert from “The New York Times Presents: Broken Horses," a new FX documentary which exposes systemic issues, questionable practices and urgent calls for change that have shaken horse racing to its core.
With confidential documents and recordings and exclusive interviews, “Broken Horses” provides a vivid tour of the business and political forces that control the Sport of Kings and resist measures to implement changes that could decrease horse deaths. It is a story of reckless breeding and doping, of compromised veterinarians and trainers, and of fans who are drawn to the sport's beauty and pageantry but increasingly wonder how long one of America's oldest sports can continue to have its social license renewed.
