Footage reveals ‘an error of judgement’ by Team GB starPeta says Olympics must ‘move into the modern era’
A video has emerged of the Team GB equestrian star Charlotte Dujardin repeatedly striking a horse with a long whip during a training session. The incident has led the animal rights group Peta to call for all equestrian events to be banned from the Olympic Games.
The 39-year-old Dujardin, who won six dressage Olympic medals in London, Rio and Tokyo, was banned from the Paris 2024 Games and suspended on Tuesday. The incident occurred when she conducted a coaching session to a young rider at a private stables four years ago.
