That's done now. The track veterinarians ARE in the barns in the morning of
race day, checking AND on the track during pre-race warm up, behind the
starting gate with walkie-talkies etc. The track veterinarian(s) have the
ability to scratch ANY horse AT THEIR SOLE DISCRETION up to the time the bell
rings. They also watch as the horses come back and pull up and if all isn't
well,
the horse is put on a "non-starters" list and you CAN NOT enter it until
examined and passed by a track vet at a later date.
It's not "just" the horses they are protecting, remember the jockeys are at
risk too. BTW, the jockey also has the ability to scratch a horse if
something doesn't feel 'right".
