As Samantha, Glenn, and Roberd Dover discuss in the show, there are three Para-equestrians who have recently lost their horses for the WEGs. I try not to ask Eventing Nation for much, but I do ask that if you know of any horses that might be suitable, check out Robert's blog or listen to the show for more information on how to make that connection happen.
