£26,000 settlement for horse fall
A former stable hand who was nearly killed when the horse he was riding reared up and landed on top of him has received £26,000
in an out of court settlement. He was tasked with taking a difficult colt “to the gallops.’” The horse, which was only two
years old, was known to become extremely unruly around other horses and in particular, around fillies.
