My guess, of all the organized, European-based horse races, would be steeple-chase, although I don't have any stats to provide.
Other horse racing, for example, African or Asian desert type races, I can't comment on.

Steeplechasing i would guess. Scince you have to jump.

HURDLE RACES BECAUSE THE HORSES JUMP BUT RACE ALMOST AS FAST AS FLAT RACES
by P. W. Pasobrio loves Marines on March 15th, 2007
I concure. Steeple chase or point to point races because they're jumping at such a high rate of speed with so many horses going at one time. It raises the risk of being bumped or falling considerably.
I have been told not to place a bet on a horse race which is a seller but what is a seller?

FWIW, I think you're absolutely right. I love steeplechases, but it is *very* common for jockeys not to complete a course.
