23 July 2008 Dr Lucien W. Valloni successfully represented Madeleine Brugman before the FEI Tribunal in the Sundancer 6 case. The FEI Tribunal has made on 23 July 2008 a decision in the case of alleged abuse committed by Madeleine Brugman (NED) and Andrew Hoy (AUS) on the horse Sundancer 6. The alleged abuse consisted in the use of spiked bell boots - overreach boots while warming-up for the jumping phase of the CCI 3* Barroca d'Alva on 9 march 2008. The Tribunal took into consideration the numerous briefs, witness statements and other documents presented by the parties and found the evidence circumstantial, i.e. indirect, in nature; it contained various unresloved contradictions and inconsistencies. The Tribunal therefore concluded that the FEI did not met its burden of proof and did not provide evidence of a nature sufficient to substantiate a case of abuse against either Madeleine Brugman or Andrew Hoy (for more information see www.fei.org).
