On his website Carl Hester informed everyone that Uthopia is not returning into the sport. He states: "We've had a lot of questions about how Uthopia is, well here he is with me at home. He's in very good form and this year we will be concentrating on his breeding and he will be standing at Meadow Stud in Birdswood, Gloucestershire. Although he has had limited mares in the past, he has bred some fantastic young stock which we are all excited about seeing in the competition arena soon."
