Details of Event
Deceased was found unconscious underneath an empty tub. He recovered consciousness but died three hours later. The position in which he was found led to the conclusion that he had been riding on the horse's tail chain contrary to Regulations. A statement he made on recovering consciousness somewhat confirmed this.
