Hickstead, the greatest show jumping horse in the world died while still in the ring, after competing. There are plenty of videos showing him competing, and, of course, showing his death.

Peter.


Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong;

We once lost one of our multiple National and World champions at the entry gate as he waited to go in and win one more for his young owner. He was a great horse with great heart. I do believe that God gave us horses to show the virtues of courage, dedication, perseverance and effort beyond one's means. I treasure them as such.
