Yet another tale of an angry horse where no horse should be.
- The Mercury 12 May 1947
When you are driving a car and have a tantrum throwing child in the back it can be quite hard to keep your mind on the job at hand.
At least when you are driving you can pull over and threaten death to restore order.
Imagine having a crazed horse distracting you when you are at altitude. You can’t really pull over and do something about it, can you?
I wonder how the horse was ‘made secure’ for the rest of the trip? I mean, it had already kicked its way through three stalls that day. I wonder what they thought would hold it? I am guessing that a large dose of tranquilizers and a length of rope securely tied around those previously flailing legs played a part.
