American dressage rider Marcus Orlob was eliminated from the Olympic competition after judges spotted a cut on his horse's hind leg. This incident occurred during Orlob's debut in the Olympic dressage event at Paris2024. The elimination not only ended Orlob's participation but also disqualified the United States from competing for a team medal. The horse, named Jane, displayed blood on its right hind leg, leading to the judges' decision on Tuesday. The incident has sparked calls for an investigation into the selection process, with concerns raised about the soundness of the horses chosen for the competition.
