Tributes have been paid to advanced event horse Dust In the Wind, who has died aged 31. Andrea Morris had to let her much-loved gelding “Murphy” go, on the same day as his best friend and constant companion Cool Waters Blue, a 26-year-older former two-star eventer owned by Lorraine Elliot. Andrea bought Murphy as a four-year-old and among their achievements was competing at the eventing young horse World Championships in Le Lion, and winning the eight-year-old challenge at Wilmslow in 2001. The pair also had good results at Blenheim, Boekelo, and Bramham three-star (now four-star). “I’m gutted he never got to do a five-star as he was so talented,” said Andrea. “Every time I went abroad, someone wanted to buy him. He was always on track, brilliant on the lines, so brave and with a lovely technique. I always knew I could trust him.”
British Dressage’s (BD) equine welfare action plan
BD has launched its four-year equine welfare action plan and called on everyone to take responsibility. The plan focuses on governance, training and education and sport development through the lens of horses’ wellbeing. The organisation has conducted a full review of its welfare policies, rules and regulations, including the members’ code of conduct and disciplinary procedures. BD stated that it is “determined to use the events of this year as a positive catalyst for change”, and BD chief executive Jason Brautigam said it is “our collective responsibility to ensure that we maintain the highest standards of equine health, care and wellbeing”.
