Horse Fatality at Stable View
Aiken, S.C.—April 8— The team at Stable View has shared with great sadness that Bold Tiger, ridden by Dr. Nikki Scherrer, DVM, and owned by Jill Tallman, was humanely euthanized as a result of an accident on cross-country while competing at Stable View in Aiken, South Carolina. The pair was competing in the CCI2*-S division.
The horse is being taken to the Athens Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory for necropsy examination.
The rider, Nikki Scherrer, was transported to the hospital for further examination, out of abundance of caution, but no major injuries were sustained.
Further inquiries should be directed to Press Officer Sally Spickard at 619-886-2668.
The USEA extends our condolences to all of Bold Tiger's connections and wishes Scherrer the best of luck in her recovery.
