I can't be of any help with links to statistics, either, but I suspect that it would be difficult to ascertain which disciplines were harder on limbs than others, because of the variables involved. Age when starting rigorous training, methods of training, etc., all come into play with injuries, and I would suspect that the most damaging ones occur in horses who are rushed in their training, as is the case in TB racing. Other factors that might affect results would be breed, specific bloodlines within the breed, and nutrition. I would think it would be exceedingly difficult to separate "ignorance-induced" damages from those which were caused by the individual discipline itself, thus arriving at an inaccurate ratio, statistically.

Though I can't be sure I would suspect that reining would have a higher incident of hind end injury and hock problems, and cow work would have a high incident of injury to the ligiments and tendons in the front legs, although the hocks might also take alot of wear and tear. Western Pleasure horses seem to have more boney problems of the front legs and feet, particularly the navicular bones.
I don't know that the injury rate is higher in western than in Sport horse activities, and racing certainly has the highest injury rate of all. You might find that certain types of injurys are associated with the various sports... UC Davis' website is
