Media Advisory Regarding the 2008 Rolex Kentucky CCI****
Laine Ashker's horse Frodo Baggins was humanely euthanized after sustaining serious injuries as a result of a fall on the cross-country course on Saturday, April 27. The entire eventing community is deeply saddened by the loss of this incredibly brave horse.
Laine was also injured in the fall. She was immediately attended to and is receiving the finest medial care available at the University of Kentucky emergency center. Our thoughts and prayers are with her and her entire family.
In a separate incident, Sarah Hansel's horse The Quiet Man sustained a serious shoulder injury as a result of a fall. The Quiet Man was humanely euthanized Sunday morning as a result of the fall. Sarah sustained minor injuries and didn't require hospitalization. The absence of this lovely horse is a tremendous loss to the entire sport of eventing.
