French horses not raised to be eaten and having had chemicals injected, having been horses for sport have been found in the food chain. The racing horses past their best are transported to Belgium, slaughtered there and the meat sent back to France. It is another debate if we should eat horses or donkeys but in the fields near us we often have wonderful horses which a farmer raises for meat. They are fed well in the fields and are well cared for, but at a certain point they are taken to the abattoir, and their meat is fit for us to eat. Regardless of the morals or not of eating them they are at least well raised for the food chain. Just caught this story on the French TV news, so more details later when I have researched.
