of misinformation about Tevis this year!)  It could be that the man that 
caused this only found out later on about Debby's injuries and maybe he felt

ground and didn't see her.  >>

An excellent post, Karen.  I know this can be true ... that the rider whose 
horse caused the accident may not have been aware of it.  It's so easy for 
any of us to place blame, when WE don't know all the circumstances.
