The following statement has been released by Jessica Kuerten's press agent.
"Irish rider Jessica Kuerten is not able to compete the horses of the Irish breeder and horse owner Lady Georgina Forbes in the sport. The reason for this is Lady Forbes’ decision not to allow the horses, which include the highly successful mare Castle Forbes Libertina, to compete at horse shows.
"A total of five horses under the ownership of Georgina Forbes are in Jessica Kuerten’s care at her equestrian facility in Huenxe, Germany. Kuerten and Forbes have shared a business relationship for over eight years.
"'I have been very fortunate to have celebrated many great victories with the horses from Lady Forbes and I am very grateful for this time. Both parties have profited from this relationship,' said Jessica Kuerten.
"Jessica is not yet sure what will be happening with the horses in the future and if and when they will be able to give them over into their owner’s care. First of all there are financial commitments which need to be cleared up between the owner and Kuertens, as well as third parties.
"There are diverse details, also for the German tax authorities, which need to be sorted out due to the fact that Lady Georgina Forbes is Irish and lives in Switzerland. It goes without question that the horses from Lady Georgina Forbes will continue to be provided for and cared for while they are at Jessica Kuerten’s facility in Rhineland."
