Bold Tiger, a 14-year-old Thoroughbred gelding ridden by Dr. Nikki Scherrer, DVM, and owned by Jill Tallman, was humanely euthanized as a result of an accident on cross-country April 8 while competing at Stable View in Aiken, South Carolina. The pair was competing in the CCI2*-S division of the event.
The horse was taken to the Athens Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory for necropsy examination, according to a statement from Stable View.

Scherrer was transported to the hospital for further examination, out of an abundance of caution, but no major injuries were sustained.
