Hi Granny

It was on the Irby facebook page.. Couple of 16 year olds on the horses. From a police report it suggested one horse had spooked BEFORE the alleged car arrived on the scene. This car according to the girls failed to slow down when it saw the spooked horse thus causing the other horse to spook and bolt. The girls said the car was revving its engine and failed to slow down. I dont think the car actually hit a horse..injuries were sustained with them bolting. Driver failed to stop..#. Keeping away from by you what with roofs being struck by lightning..

Regardless of the first horse that was spooked ......

The second horse with rider moved to the centre of the road to shield the spooked horse and control traffic.

The car went past at speed regardless, spooking the second horse whose rider then got thrown to the road.

Both horses made their way back to the stables and it's a bit confusing, as one still had it's rider . Which one, I'm not sure , but the one that died crashed into a post , so how the second got it's injuries ,I don't know.

Hi Fish, hi nice to see you pop up here.

The second one, Leo, was injured when it tried to jump some farm equipment some distance away.

Leo now has some infected tissue and some flesh that isn't recovering properly.
