On second thought, The horse was pulled at the lunch break on the 50 miler. I
talked to the rider, and she said she had been pulled and was going home. I
wasn't aware of the accident until much later when I heard that it had
happened and that TV cameras had been there. Since I was there with a grey
arab I called my family to reassure them that it hadn't been me. My mom had
seen it on TV, and she was afraid it might have been.
