Most likely the horses were not trailered, but were loaded onto the Maktoum's private transport jet and received the best of care. The Spanish horses were probably on the same jet headed back to the same training stable in Dubai.

I really enjoyed Mary's coverage of the KC, and share her feelings of disappointment for what she described as the "funeral like" atmosphere of the BC judging. Every horse and rider out there showing for BC deserved tons of applause after a ride like that.
And what's with the UAE and Spain leaving after the ride, and other countries unable to get their passports until after BC judging the next day? Seems like a horse doesn't need the stress of trailering (even a short distance) after a very demanding competition in the mud.
