“We feel so lucky,” Cory told GoHorseShow. “Ray and his wife, Courtney, were in his truck and both are okay. Jeff William’s new two year-old was also in there next to Betty and he is fine. Unfortunately, one of Denise Callahan’s horses was killed in the accident.”

There are also reports that a horse owned by Al Dunning was on the back of the trailer and that he became loose and ran down the road. Wegner was headed home to Washington when this tragic accident took place. According to Seebach, Wegner has arranged other transportation for the surviving horses.
