Haygain

Haygain has been an incredible part of my program for a long time! The benefits that it brings to the horses’ respiratory health are outstanding! The steamed hay helps to reduce dust and bacteria, ensuring that my equine partners have cleaner forage and breathe easier. It’s a game-changer for their well-being and performance.

We couple this with our Manna Pro Horse supplements that are fantastic for supporting the horses’ nutrition and health. The combination of top-notch forage from HayGain and quality supplements from MannaPro makes a real difference in their overall vitality and performance. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results!

MDHT Starter Trials

Team SSB had a solid showing at the MDHT Starter Trials. I was in the saddle riding Peter Foley’s Boston and secured a commendable 6th place in Training-B. It’s incredibly rewarding to witness Boston’s progress and increasing confidence at every event, especially as we work towards moving up the levels in this sport.

In addition, huge congratulations to student Vera Fontana, who achieved an impressive 2nd place in Introductory-A with Olympiad. It’s great to see the hard work paying off!

What a fantastic result!
