A New Sponsor

03.05.12

I'm extremely proud and happy to annouce that Flair Strips are sponsoring the team. 

I've used Flair Strips on the horses especially in hard work after I came off the cross country course with Tina to find she had a huge nose bleed. It seems a lot of blood to us and I've seen this before especially racehorses after they've raced, its due to the pressure of the blood going around their body. 

I never took much notice till the next time I went cross country and it happened again - looking into these nose strips I read that the nasal passages in a horse become smaller when exercised. I felt bad as not only was Tina carrying me across country but she would have found it more and more difficult which lead to her nose bleeds and if these simple products were to help her then I was interested.

In the end I was convinced and had some delivered to us before our next even where the simple instructions and diagrams I easily placed the Flair Strip on Tinas nose. We flew cross country and when I pulled up she wasnt even breathing hard, it was such a difficult track with lots of turns and steep hills with a steady one on the way home I expected to find her huffing and puffing.

In fact I think she would of gone round again! And even better no bleeding so from now on the whole team will be having these - especially cross country as these fences dont move and you need every ounce of concentration, what better way than making sure the body has the oxygen intake it needs?
