It is a hot topic; security on international shows. After tack was stolen in Ebreichsdorf it is now an injury of Quismy des Vaux HDC that calls the attention. At the CSIO5* in Sankt Gallen the horse was found quite badly her in her stall. In the evening between Saturday and Sunday, Otello du Soleil, the stallion of Roman Duguet, is thought to have escaped from his stall and found the mare of France’s Kevin Staut, Quismy des Vaux HDC. It appears the system of security at the CSIO event in St. Gallen has failed. “I am still in shock, as are all the riders and grooms who were present in St. Gallen. It was the first time we have seen this” commented Emmanuèle Perron-Pette, owner of Haras des Coudrettes to Grand Prix Replay. In arriving in the stables of CSIO5* St Gallen on Sunday morning, those on scene discovered Quismy des Vaux HDC injured in her box, accompanied with Otello du Soleil, Swiss rider Romain Duguet. The midnight entry of Duguet’s stallion resulted in a large haematoma and has resulted in a serious limp on her right side and right hindquarters area. “It is necessary for us to wait for the haematoma to reduce in size to determine the expanse of damage” said Jérôme Thévenot, the veterinary surgeon of the French Team, who was on the scene for the first administration of care. Quismy des Vaux HDC will not be able to compete for at least three to six months. If, however, there is further damage to be diagnosed, then it looks as though the mare’s career is over.
