I don't know that anyone keeps those statistics. I'm sure the tracks montior them to some extent, but thats "bad news information", it's probably not gonna be provided to the public easily.
They can hide behind the variables. "What constitutes a breakdown?"
A fatal breakdown?
Whats a fatal breakdown?
A put down on the track or a put down 6 months later from consequent laminitis?
A did not finish, DNF, ?
A ran his last race?
