If memory serves, this footage was actually filmed
several months ago, and the case was discussed at length somewhere on the
Net (mayhaps even here on RC) with comments from people who knew the horse and
the situation--yes, it was an endurance horse, and yes, it was ok, but I don't
recall the details. Seemed like it was after one of the winter rides in
the southern CA desert--Death Valley, maybe? or one of the later one-day rides
in that area.

accident
I saw the same show, it was Animal Planet, and they
said the accident happened in Sunland, CA. It was horrible to watch,
that poor horse flailing around on the roadway. Not much more you can do
on the side of a road I guess. They did say the horse turned out to be
okay, but no details. I'm sure it must have been an endurance
horse.
