The beginning in V75–4. Horse number 1 until the week again at the top of the image.
Horse Hastawemeeta collapsed again in V75-4, also Dam-SM.
Life could not be saved.
– Probably talking about a heart collapse, said the veterinarian on duty at Åbytravet, Kristin Aurell on V75 Direkt on TV12.
It was after the finale on V75-4, Dam-SM, that the report reached viewers.
The Hastawemeetagain horse, with Sofia Adolfsson in the sulking, crashed at the last corner and stayed on the track.
It is not yet clear what happened, but the horse’s life could not be saved.
– Oh, oh, oh – always extremely gloomy, said expert commentator Patrik Fernlund directly.
The vet: “Very tragic”
After a while, reports came in that the horse was dead.
– My stomach itches, said host Per Skoglund.
He continued:
– I’m very affected by this.
The veterinarian on duty at Åbytravet, Kristin Aurell, had this to say about the incident:
– Most likely it speaks of a heart collapse. It is very tragic. It goes very fast for the horse. He was not conscious when he fell to the ground, so were the reflections when we arrived. The horse will be sent for autopsy, as is customary on occasions like this, he said.
And continued:
– We don’t have time to do anything. One consolation in the whole is that it is a quick process, so that the horse does not feel so much.
“Respectful”
Driver Sofia Adolfsson must have survived injury-free in the accident. Ulrika Wällstedt, a professional from Solvalla, returned to train Untilwemeeta.
The accident caused V75 racing to be postponed somewhat.
– Respectful, said Skoglund on TV12.
✓ Linda Sedström and Rally Gunnar took home victory in the Women’s Championship.
