EN wants to send our very best wishes and boatload of healing vibes out to Amber Birtcil who, along with her horse Cinzano, suffered a scary fall during the CCI4*-L cross country at Galway Downs the other weekend. While “Zane” was fortunately uninjured in the fall, Amber suffered serious injury has since spent some time in the hospital in San Diego undergoing a series of surgeries to repair her pelvis. Amber has a long road to recovery ahead, but it sounds like she has a great crew of friends helping her take care of her horses and herself. Here’s to speedy healing, Amber! You’ve got this.
