Damn, nightmare* few days. First his 'main' horse had to be replaced by Diabolo and now he won't even compete at all..

 

 

*depending on the reason, if it's an animal welfare thing and his mistake....oh well...

Also, Max Kühner is in trouble for an animal welfare thing and court proceedings are going on, but I'm not exactly sure what he is supposed to have done. And it's in Dutch, but equestrian-specific language which I don't know

What's happened? I saw a great 30pen for him in dressage

Ok, found it. Portali's horse had some blood in the mouth.
