David Doel’s CCI** horse Bottoms Up III was euthanized on June 4 at the Tattersalls International Horse Trials in Ratoath, Ireland, after suffering from a seizure while competing.

Doel, a 23-year-old British rider, had ridden Mark Milligan’s 9-year-old British Sport Horse (Up With The Lark—Drop Of Gold II, Dutch Gold) since last year, when they completed the CCI* at the Camphire International Horse Trials (Ireland).

The pair were competing in the Under 25 CCI** division at Tattersalls.
