Equestrian, 25, k!lled in horrific accident after her horse refused to jump

A Massachusetts equestrian was k!lled after her show horse balked on a jump and threw her from the saddle before collapsing on top of her.

Chloe Christina Smith, 25, was riding her horse with friends Friday night, June 5, when she was thrown from the animal in a horrific fall.

The horse also di£d as it sustained a fatal neck injury, according to her heartbroken family and obituary.

The Swampscott woman was airlifted to UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester, where she di£d hours later surrounded by loved ones, Itemlive reported.

“Chloe … di£d living her dreams,” her obituary said.

“Most of us never get that chance, that special moment where life comes together, the wind is at your back, and you have everything you ever wanted right in front of you.”

Smith’s family said her life was cut short just weeks after she fulfilled her dream of buying a working horse farm in Berlin, where she boarded 18 horses and animals and trained riders, the outlet reported.

“Her life was horses. That was her love.”

Her older brother, Andrew, told the outlet how much his sister “loved her horses,” adding that “she was thrilled when she opened her own bar just seven weeks ago.”

Smith, a progressive activist committed to social justice and equality, had hoped to turn her farm into a local destination for family celebrations and community events, her family said.

“She said she wanted to live there the rest of her life,” her mother, Abbe, told the outlet, explaining how her daughter’s love for horses started after summers at equestrian camps as a child.

“She wanted to get married there.”
