Default Ulla Salzgeber's horse very lame at Aachen

http://www.viddler.com/explore/Aachen2009/videos/1/

Awful video, poor Ulla. I hope the horse is ok, looks like he took a bad step and twisted his fetlock. What a nightmare for her.

(edited to fix link)

Was it me, or did the fetlock look swollen almost immediately........

Poor lad, how awful. Not much of a prognosis for that.........
