It is with great sadness that we announce that Powderhound, owned and ridden by Andrew McConnon, collapsed and died while returning to the stables after competing in the CIC** jumping phase while competing at The Fork event in Norwood, N.C., at approximately 1:45 p.m. on April 5.

The entire organizing committee and officials extend its heartfelt condolences to Andrew McConnon at this difficult time.
