Jack's Irish Z Humanely Euthanized At Ocala Horse Trials
It is with great sadness that Equiventures, organizers of the Ocala Horse Properties Winter 2 Horse Trials, as well as the USEA reports on the tragic loss of Jack’s Irish Z in this afternoon’s Intermediate division. Katlyn Hewson, the owner/rider of Irish, was not injured in the incident.
Irish landed following the second to last fence on course and was unable to bear weight on one of his legs and as a result of his injuries had to be humanely euthanized. Equiventures and the USEA extends it heartfelt sympathy to owners Katlyn, Chuck and Sue Hewson and partner Karl Slezak.
