Slightly amused at the response of the British breeder from the Paris yellow card saying he has the other side of the story and he may or may not share it 
I’m sure I may or may not be fascinating if he does or doesn’t…

Was that the chestnut being ridden in rollkur? The breeder is crazy.

Yup, he totally needs to be in the conversation all the time apparently. It’s a comment on the horse sport article in the equestrians group

I wonder what the other side of the story is? A reminder of the photos which the breeder took of his horse in the eventing dressage warm up at Paris2024 and which he then proudly posted up, which resulting in the rider getting a yellow card.

This all sounds grand in principle; let's see how it works in practice

FEI Meeting Sets Unified Vision for the Future of Dressage
While "this vision of what Dressage should embody may seem self-evident", the discipline has moved away from its traditional purpose, to its detriment.

I must've missed this @Tiddlypom
Which horse is this? Why would you be stupid enough to take pictures and then post them?? (Ignoring the fact that it took the posting of them to get the penalty?)

Here you go..... https://eventingnation.com/fei-issues-yellow-card-in-response-to-peta-complaint/
The FEI have issued a yellow card at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games to Brazilian team rider Carlos Parro in response to concerns raised by the animal rights group PETA.
A letter of concern and photographs were sent by PETA which appear to show Carlos hyper-flexing Safira to FEI president Ingmar De Vos on Friday.
“The FEI can confirm receipt of the letter and accompanying photographs from PETA highlighting the concerns about the conduct of Brazilian athlete Carlos Parro. The FEI Officials have issued a yellow warning card as the action of the athlete could have caused unnecessary discomfort to the horse,” The FEI said in a statement.

In addition to what nikicb posted in answer to your query, it is worth mentioning that the breeder who took and published the photos is an HHOer, albeit not one who posts much.

Sorry slow to the party, but just saw that Andreas Helgstrand has been given an additional three month suspension for his involvement in the Carina Cassoe Kruth whipping video from DRF activities, effective 3 October 2024. This means that he can compete again as of 3 January 2025. He has also been fined DKK 5,000.

Re. andrew there doesn't seem to be much to report other than the FEI told Allie they hadn't received her complaint. . . then they later said that they had which fills with confidence.
USEF aren't implementing the rule change which clarifies that they can sanction things that happen not at USEF shows until 1st December

Can someone explain rollkur to me please?
As in, what is the point and purpose of doing it?
It isn't how you want the horse to go in the arena, so what is the purpose of making your horse work like it in the warm up??

because it then goes all flashy when allowed some more bodily freedom in the arena.

It was for "submission" originally. Made famous by Bonfire who was so hot to ride that Rolkur was the only way to make him submit to ride (apparently).

People don’t like what they are seeing, so we’ll just make sure people can’t see it anymore. They clearly have not read the room. Unbelievable!

There was a period of time where the FEI was limiting recording/photos/access of warm ups, I thought we'd got past that
