Battle of Hastings fractured his right front leg in the 2011 Woodford Reserve Turf Classic. After being stabilized for the night, the surgery was performed the following morning. Unlike many of the on-track breakdowns, this one ends happily. Battle of Hastings recovered successfully and remains active, but without any noteworthy races.
Although it is difficult to see while he is running, his legs do not appear to have any extreme flaws. He has a great deal of muscling over his body, with a deep barrel and powerful hind end to increase his propulsion.
