TEAM FREDERICKS

[flohelf]

A suggestion from French equestrian forum for anyone who would like to send words of sympathy to the Fredericks re the loss of Nullarbor:

From French sources in Saumur: Clayton said the horse was feeling unusually heavy on the bit after clearing fence and just before taking that turn... There is strong suspicion of a heart attack or aneurysmal rupture. The French Saumur vet staff will perform the autopsy of N. The results of the pm should be released soon.

Hopefully this will clarify things for all those involved if not make up for the loss of a great horse.

RIP poor boy

A huge loss for TF and the sport, thank god Clayton was thrown clear.

The only consolation is that the horse didn't suffer and went instantly.

I met the Fredericks when they were at Windsor teaching the Quest X competition. You could not meet a more genuine lovely couple and I am truly sorry that they have lost a wonderful horse.
