Olympian1010 7,479 Posted August 7, 2021 #141 Share Posted August 7, 2021 https://www.uipmworld.org/news/uipm-official-statement-kim-raisner-ger-disqualified-tokyo-2020-olympic-games Quote The UIPM Executive Board (EB) has given a black card to the Germany team coach Kim Raisner, disqualifying her from the remainder of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. The EB reviewed video footage that showed Ms Raisner appearing to strike the horse Saint Boy, ridden by Annika Schleu (GER), with her fist during the Riding discipline of the Women’s Modern Pentathlon competition. Her actions were deemed to be in violation of the UIPM Competition Rules, which are applied to all recognised Modern Pentathlon competitions including the Olympic Games.

heywoodu 13,560 Posted August 7, 2021 #148 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Just got around to watching yesterday's show jumping portion....what on earth is wrong with Schleu?! I mean, disappointed, understandably, but the way she treated that horse was utterly disgusting... I'm not googling because I still have the laser run to watch, but surely she'll get quite a penalty for this? Good that the horse at some point was basically like 'screw you' and outright refused, good riddance. dcro 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
