I've seen it (and shared it) on Facebook as that's not far from us. It's horrible

Poor pony was my thought too �� and poor rider! How awful. I really, really hope they catch the driver.

@?><£$% driver ... hope they get him.

Poor old horse, hope he recovers :-( I wouldn't ride anymore if I had to ride on roads ... it's just not worth the risk.

Does anyone know if they've caught this idiot yet?

I saw a post on FB the other day that someone had seen a pale green X-Trail with obvious front end damage and no numberplates on the back of a recovery truck fairly locally.

Sadly, it appears that the horse has now been PTS.

Oh no that's awful! Really feel for the owner and hoping even more so now that the driver is caught.

I knew the pony as a foal and youngster. Just awful!

I don't understand why some people just don't slow down for horses and ponies.:mad3: Whether I've been driving a car, riding a motorbike or push bike, I've always slowed down and stopped. As for hit and run, that's just cowardice!

I wonder if it's a boy racer, they're a bloody nuisance at the best of times!

It was a green 4x4 if I remember correctly.

Certainly sounds like the same one. Fingers crossed for a conviction.
