    • British rider back from injury

    Five-star event rider Louise Harwood has returned to international competition two months after sustaining serious injuries. Louise fell from a muck trailer while emptying a wheelbarrow on 15 June, sustaining fractures to her skull, ribs and shoulder blade – and some vertebrae, on which she had surgery. She was given the all-clear to get back in the saddle on 8 August. Louise, who finished 10th in the CCI3*-S at Wellington last weekend said it is “good to be back”.
