Charlotte Dujardin’s mentor and teammate Carl Hester has signed a letter “universally condemning” her for abusing her horse and supporting the decision to suspend her for six months.
Hester, who will compete in his seventh Olympics in Paris next week, was one of 10 board members of the International Dressage Riders Club to sign the letter after a video was released of Dujardin whipping a horse 24 times in a minute.
