Thirty-three-year-old eventer Katharine Morel of Fort Saskatchewan, AB, and her horse, Kerry On, died following a rotational fall at Rocking Horse Winter III Horse Trials in Altoona, FL, on Saturday, Feb. 29, 2020.
Morel and the eight-year-old Thoroughbred mare fell at fence eight of the Intermediate level cross-country course.
Discovered by Morel as an off-the-track three-year-old, Kerry On made her FEI debut with the Canadian rider in 2019, contesting three CCI2* events that season. Last month, the pair finished fourth in the Open Intermediate division at Rocking Horse Winter II Horse Trials.
