"In several stables in our area, including ours, there is a suspicion of a virus, and while we have already taken samples, the results will only come back on Friday," Justina took to Instagram. "The good news is that all my horses, including Nabab, are feeling good and showing no symptoms at all. But waiting with uncertainty and then still traveling would mean putting Kebabi's health at risk — and even more importantly, the health of every other horse competing at the Europeans. That is something I simply cannot and will not do. As athletes, we are responsible not only for our own dreams, but also for the safety of those around us. This decision is one of the hardest I have had to make, but I believe it is the right one. My horse comes first, always."
