The Monty Roberts blanket helps the horse by protecting his/her vulnerable areas from the annoying stimulation of the rails that run along the inside walls of the starting gates. Great piece of equipment for horses who consider the starting stalls to be frightening. The rug provides massage therapy to the horse. By enhancing venous blood flow, this rug can be used on many equine problems and conditions as well as having great results when used on a pre-warmup program before exercise and a recovery program after exercise. On top of that they really love it! The weight scale is an excellent device we do use to keep track of our horses weight on a weekly basis, as well as to control losses of body weight after racing. In this way, the feed ration is adapted in order to mantain a desirable weight that makes the horses performs the best. The steamer makes the hay healthier! Respirable dust particles are eliminated, improves hay palatability, aids in the management and prevention of respiratory conditions and kills mould, bacteria and fungal spores. |
The canteen
Ideal place for the team to get together and for having a catch up with the owners coming to visit their horses.
