Vet yesterday. Had a long chat with the vet, and came to the expected conclusion that Barokko is no longer able to function as a riding horse at any level, and has no realistic chance of becoming able to do so in the future.
He has a permanent loss of use insurance which applies, so the vet has sent his documents to the insurance company's vet to be approved. Once they give the go-ahead he will be euthanized.
Barokko has touched my heart like no other horse and I will grieve for him for a long time, but I know that this is the right decision.

I'm sorry. You have made a very brave and dignified decision. Thinking of you both.
