NSW rider Tarsha Hammond became the second rider to suffer the
disappointment of being ruled out of World Games contention when her 11-year old gelding
Fuzzy Logic was ruled out on veterinary grounds.

Tarsha
Hammond in happier times - just having completed a great SJ round for 2nd overall at the
Melbourne 3DE 2000 |
Tarsha decided to withdraw from the squad
following discussions with team management and after having discussed the horses
situation with specialist veterinarians in Sydney.
Tarsha will give fuzzy Logic a month off and will now focus on
being selected for the Trans Tasman team next year and then selection for the Athens
Olympic Games
Due to FEI rules regarding nominated entries, which were
submitted on 12 August, a replacement horse from Australia is not able to be brought
into the squad.
