Elliot Patterson Passed Away

He was cooling out his horse on a long rein, at the walk. :frowning:

How sad.

How gut wrenching. So young, so talented and such a needless and stupid accident. Ugh. Glad he was wearing a helmet but it wasn’t enough. :sob:

How very sad.

@Mouse_amp_Bay I don’t understand your ā€œneedless and stupidā€ comment. Are we not to cool out our horses on a loose rein?

No need to get excited. Just sad that this happened, a needless tragedy and accident.

No blame imputed. Sometimes horses are just very hard. My heart goes out to his loved ones.

Not excited. I was confused (and still am actually) by the choice of words which seemed to imply bad choice/s. Thank you for clarifying.

How awful for his family and friends. He was a lovely rider, he really connected with a horse. I’m so sorry he has passed.

Sadly, even under the best circumstances, horse life is dangerous.

My condolences to his loved ones.
