LAST UPDATE: Contact has been made with the owner of the chestnut horse of concern on this post and an appointment has been made for an examination.
UPDATE 3:The latest news to me as of 10am is that they Chestnut horse pictured below(which has been used for the majority of the social media posts and eye witnesses) is not being used to finish the FINAL Leg to The Red House today! The information reaching me is that a grey mare will be used. Calls and WhatsApp messages to Eric Lewis has gone unanswered and the horse has not been made available for examination (@ 945am as previosly agreed to!)
UPDATE 2: Unfortunately, I have been unable to secure an exam on the horse as of 8am Saturday. I have had contact with the rider however the journey continued. I strongly believe this horse needs an examination prior to continuation. If you see the horse today Oct 19, please comment on the location.
UPDATE: Contact has been made, and now to hopefully facilitate an exam on this horse and recommendations to all involved. Thanks to all that has assisted!
This horse is being used and publicly shared on various social media apps here in Trinidad recently. I must attest that I have not examined this horse in person , but have made and is continuing to make attempts to contact the persons repsponsible. Based on the many videos I have seen on the socials, I am truly concerned for this horse's welfare!
Anyone connected with the persons repsponsible, please express my concerns to them and have them contact me. I will strive to assist as best as can to offer guidance to the benefit of this horse.
