FEEDINGTHE SHOWHORSE

Achievingshowshine condition involves alotofhard work; washing,grooming, trimmingetc.,but to get thebest resultsthereneeds to be somenutritionalgroundwork.

Traditionally,theShowHorse wasfed to maintain aperceptionof conditionthatno longerseems valid.Theoldadage‘I’mnot fat,I’minshowcondition’hasbeen replaced with amorepragmaticapproach combining conformationwithhealthand wellbeing.

Central to thisis amoreholisticapproach to the term condition,onewhichencompasses skeletal,muscularand fatconformations, as wellasskinand coat condition, wellbeing andactivity. Whatmaybesurprisingisthat oilisalso centraltoalltheseaspects.

So,theoilfromlinseedhas anumberof actionsinproducing “showshine”.There isa directnutritionalinfluenceinhairdevelopment andgrowth;in coatingtheskinbarrierand hair,andanindirectinfluenceinmaintaining theelasticityand conditionoftheskinunder variousinternaland external stresses.

Linseedoilisan excellentproducttosupply slow-releaseenergy,butalsoprovidesthe omega fattyacidsthat contributetoskin and coat condition,general well-beingand regulatorymechanismswhichareresponsible formaintainingthe core body temperature.

WHYFEEDCOOKED LINSEED?

CookedLinseedhasundergonegentleheat/ moisturetreatment to avoiddisruptionof bioactivecomponents.These components includeantioxidantvitaminswhichhave arole insupportingskinand coathealth,helping to reduceNOX,a strongpro-oxidant,while vitamin Coffersageneralantioxidant.

Allofthishelpsmaintainthe correct oxidativestatusthroughoutthebodyand acts asanantioxidant forthehorse keeping theminthebest ofhealth.Thehighlevels ofomega-3, omega-6andomega-9fatty acidsin CookedLinseedhelp to aidskinand coat condition,whilstthe highqualityprotein supportsmuscleactivityand topline.

DON’TJUST TAKEOUR WORDFORIT…

LincolnshirebasedshowingChampionsSimon andNatalie Reynoldshave seenthe results forthemselves inoneoftheirolderhorses.

“Wefullybelieve thathisdietof FibreBeetand CookedLinseed, keepshimintip-top conditionandgives himslow-releaseenergy to go gallivantingacrossthe countrysideandenjoying himself.Hereallydoesn’tlookoractlikehisage.”

Thedisciplineoftheshowhorseismarkedly differentfromgeneralequinenutrition,as conformityoftheanimalisuppermost;the useofselectedoil typescanhelp by increasing the conditionandshineoftheskinbutalso providingalltheothermentionedbenefits, includingprovidingenergy to sustainthehorse.

STRANGLES

WHATISSTRANGLES?

Stranglesisabacterialinfectionwhich affects equidsandis caused by thebacteria

Streptococcusequi.Stranglesishighly contagiousand caneasilybespread betweenhorses,itisspreadvia contact withinfecteddischargewhich canbe directlybetween two horses,viasurfaces suchas yardequipment,bucketsand water troughs,viapeopleonclothingorshoes.

Thetimebetweeninfectionandthehorse showingsignsofdisease (the incubation period) canvaryfrom 2to 21 days,this meansthat ahorse canbepotentially spreadingtheinfection forthisperiodof timewithoutshowinganysignsofdisease.

SPOTTINGSTRANGLES

The symptomsof stranglescanbe variablebetweenhorses,hereare some commonsigns to lookout for:

•High fever

•Thicksnottynasaldischarge

•Pain/ swellingunderthejaw

•Abscessationunderthejaw

Less commonsigns canincludedifficulty breathingifthelymphnodesbecome particularly swollen –thisisanemergencyand

veterinaryhelpshouldbesoughtimmediately. Other complicationsassociatedwith strangles includeabscessesformingininternalorgans, “Bastard Strangles”,and swellingoflimbs, sheathandbelly,“PurpuraHaemorrhagica”. These complicationsareseriousand again, veterinaryhelpshouldbesought.

Antibioticsare rarelyindicated fora straightforwardstranglescase,theycan actuallydelaythe abscessmaturingand bursting.Antibioticsmay beneeded forvery youngoroldhorses,orparticularlyunwell horses,but your vetwilldecideon acase by casebasiswhethertheyare needed.

CONTAININGANOUTBREAK

Astrongbiosecurityplanisimperativein controllinganoutbreakonayardtominimise spreadwithinthe yard and tostopthe outbreakfromspreading to other yardsinthe area.Good communicationwithinthe yard is veryimportantatthispoint to ensurethat everyoneis followingthesameprotocols.

PA LMARFOOT PA IN, PREVIOUSLYK NOWNAS NAVICULARDISEASE

Theincreasing availabilityofMRI to theequine veterinaryworld hasallowedustoexploreingreat detailthemanycausesofpalmar foot pain. Palmar foot pain waspreviously knownasNavicularDisease,orNavicular Syndrome –likemostsyndromes,therewasa lotof variationbetween casesandthismade itdifficult to knowhow to treatormanage thesehorseseffectively.Now that we have abetterunderstandingofthe complicated anatomyinthe heelarea,and canvisualise itthroughtheuseofMRIscanning, we can breakthe ‘syndrome’down to makeaspecific diagnosisoftheinjuriespresentin each case. Thishelps vets to givemoreaccurateadvice regardingprognosisandpossibletreatments.

ANATOMY

HOWDOINJURIESIN THISAREAHAPPEN?

Injuriesinthe heelarea arethe resultoflots ofdifferent factors.Mostathleticdisciplines forwhichhorsesare usedinvolvesome kindof repetitiveloading,andgenerate biomechanical forceswhichthehorsehas not evolved to withstand.Bothoftheseare

detrimental.Ifthehorse’sconformationis not verygood,this canalsoadverselyaffect thebiomechanical forcesexperienced by structures inthe foot,andmayimpairnormal bloodcirculation to andfromthisarea.

Softtissueinjuriesarisewhen repetitiveloading andalteredbiomechanicscombinewithasingle traumatic event,andundergomechanical failure as aresult.Thisprocesscanbe worsenedif thereare multiplesites oflameness,suchas hindlimbsuspensorypain,which contributeto abnormalloadingofthefront feet,orpoor foot conformationwhichmayaffectnormalbloodflow.

Thelameness oftenaffects bothfront feet atthe sametime,butonemaylooklamerthantheother.

Thelameness islocalised to the footthrough theuseofnerveblocks. X-rays ofthe footmay notshowany abnormalitiesifthereisasoft tissueinjuryalone,butinsome casesbone abnormalitiescanbeseen.Whetherornot the x-rays looknormal,anMRIisthenext step sothatanaccuratediagnosis canbemade.

WHATTREATMENTS ARE AVAILABLE?

Dependingonwhich structures areaffected,and onthe typeofinjurypresent,thereare anumber ofdrugs we canuse to medicatethe affectedarea, including steroids,PRP,IRAP, polyacrylamide gel,and stemcells. We mightalsoneed to treatthe horse systemicallywithbuteand/or bisphosphonates –each casewillbedifferent! Allowing aperiodofup to 6months rest after medicatingseems to improve theoutcome

Every casewillbenefitfromcloseattentionfrom your farrier –thereisnoone ‘right’way to shoe ahorsewithpalmar footpain,butensuringthat footbalanceand conformationisoptimised,and theheelarea wellsupportedis veryimportant. Your vetand farrierwillneed towork together to develop ashoeingplan to suit yourhorse.

Thelasttime Iwent to Switzerland wasinFebruary 2020,whenIwent to StMoritz tocoverthe racing.LittledidI knowthen,thatas Isteppedofftheplane inEnglandwhen Igot back,thatthe world wasabout to closedowndue to the Covid Pandemic. To be back here three yearslaterisjustlikeadream cometrue.

WhiteTurfisunlikeany other eventIhave everbeen to oram ever likely to, and even after twenty-six yearsithasnotlostits magic for me; everytime IgetofftheplaneatZurichin fairytale Switzerland, my adventurebegins.

KarenMcArthur,oneofmyoldest friends,came withme forhersecondvisit to sharethissnowfilled wonderland.Ourbagspackedwithbase layers,woollyhatsandallthingsthermal, we consideredourselves good to go,aswestepped offtheGlacierExpress,thelittleAlpinemountain trainthatwindsitsway throughtheAlps to beautifulStMoritz,heartoftheEngadine.

StMoritznestleslikeafairytaleinthe Swiss Alps;thesnow-toppedmountainssurround itlikesentriesstandingguard.Insummerit is agreen andbeautifulplace, butinwinter it really comesintoits own,whenthelake atthebaseofthe townfreezesover, and duringthemonthsofJanuaryand February itplays hosttoboth PoloandHorse racing.

WhiteTurfbeganonehundredandeleven yearsagoin1907withthesportofSkijoring. Skijoringhas rootsthatdatebackseveral

hundred yearsasameansoftravelthroughthe snowandharsh conditionsofwinter.People were towedbehind reindeeronlong woodenskis. Eventually,horsesreplacedthe reindeerandthe sport evolvedintotheadrenaline-filledactionpacked race that we see todayontheice, on thefrozenlake. Itiscertainly acrowd favourite, watchingtheunmountedThoroughbreds reach speedsofup to 50Km/h.Hugephysical stamina and core strengthareneeded, togetherwith above averageskiingproficiency. Whoevergets thehighest pointsoverthethree race Sundays during Februarygoesontobecrowned‘King orQueenoftheEngadine’.Aswellasthe Skijoring,someofthefirst Trotting raceswere introducedin1907. Flat racing wasintroduced in1911andattracts entrantsfromall over Europe.Thesethree extremelydifferent styles of racingmakeupanextraordinaryday.

Theday beforethe racing,KarenandI took atripupPizNair to arestaurant10,000 feetabove sealevelandonly reachable by cable car. Theviews were themostincredible Ihaveeverseen,andas we ascended,the WhiteTurf racingvillageonthelakewas visiblefromabove inallitsicy glory.

Theysay thatthesunalwaysshinesinSt Moritz,describedas‘TopofThe World’;looking downfromourbird’seye cable carview, Icould wellbelieve it. Idon’tthink Ihaveeverhada weekendtherewhere thesunhasn’tshone. At the Restaurant, we watchedbirdsflying belowus,and aplanedoingaerobaticsoverthe

lake, alsobelowus.Itisgenuinelyquitesurreal and extraordinarilybeautifulsohighup,with thesnow-cappedmountainsprovidingperfect peaceandthecleanest air youwill everbreathe.

Steppingon to the765,000squaremetre frozenlakeontheSunday, youknowthat you areinnodangerofgoingthroughtheiceasitis 40 –80cmthick;itisquiteafeelingknowing that youare literally walkingon wateralbeitwith anicybarricade.Marqueesare upservinghot foodanddrinks,thelakeisfullofpeople,thesun isout, abandplays andtheatmosphereisfull ofanticipation.Dogsareoutinabundance, with their ownersthoroughlyenjoyingtheday. Racing startsat12pmand isutterlyaction-packeduntil itsfinishat4pm.Italwaysgoesbyway toofast in ablurofhorses, colourandcrowds.As Iwalk back to the Winnersenclosure, Imeetsomepeople whohavecomeallthe wayfromKentwiththeir horse Torbellino.Torbellinohadjustcome avery respectablethird,inthelastflat race oftheday. Iamhappytotakesomephotosofbothherand LibbyCavellwhotravelledwithherfromEngland toSwitzerlandthreeand ahalf weekspreviously, with astopinGermanyonthe way. Ichatted to Torbellino’sowners,JaneandNeilMaltbyand askedhowtheyendedup racingheratWhiteTurf.

“WehaveknownLindaand KarenJewell fora

longtimethrough racing andbreeding;sowhen theylinkedupwithJohnBest.Wewereinvited to the celebrationpartyatJohn’syard.In the partyroom,therewerephotosandtrophies fromJohns exploitsatStMoritzonthefrozen lake. We hadalwayswantedtogoandsee the racing ontheice, so we said to Johnthat ifhe found ahorsethatmightbesuitable,to giveusacall.Sureenough,lastMay,herang to tellusabout Torbellino; amarethathad runand wonontheiceand wasforsale.We were interested,andthe rest ishistory.We areinStMoritz,shehasrun,and comethird, on eachofthefirst two Sundays andruns intheGrand Prix tomorrow; aslightlylonger race,which we hopewillsuitherbetter!”

Torbellino,trained by Best Jewell Racing, was beautifulandlookedquiteathomeonthesnow.

Asthedayended,andthesettingsun cast longshadowsoverthe racetrack, KarenandI setoffacrossthelakebacktotheHotel forhot drinksandsupper,leavingnothingbehindbutour footprintsinthesnow. Itisalwaysawhirlwind tripbut worthit everytime.Iknowthatthistime when IstepofftheplaneinEngland, we arenow post-pandemicandlifeisvirtually back to normal andthatnothinghaschangedinStMoritz,It is stilljustasmuchofanadventureasever.

HONEYISCREATING AS WEETBUZZ

HoneyD’orhas waftedonto BritishDressagewith aplomb.She has casually saunteredintothearenawith aswishofher tail.Ifshe washuman, she wouldbenonchalantlyflickinga silkscarf overhershoulderwiththe sameeleganceasHGV DriverJoJo. Intheirfirstoutingas apartnership atOnleyon1st January, Sofiaand Honeyscoreda72% inthe Advanced Medium91 to securetheirfirstvictory.

Prior to thegranddebutofHoneyD’or, therewasmuchactionbehindthescenes withthehumansof‘TeamGames’.Sofia wasrecoveringfromherdentaloperationand appeared to be recovering well…Three weeks latershehad to berushedintoA&Ewith the symptomsof astroke. Asuspectedside effectoftheprocedure, withalltheindicative sign-posts.A Specialist,onhand,sawheras anemergencyandimmediatelyinvestigated. Thankfully,itwas a‘mere’infection,anda prescriptionofsome very strongantibiotics sawitoff.But,it wasfrightening forall.

Inthemeantime,JoJo wasvisiting Dubaiwithherson,Sofia’sUncleTeddy.A well-deservedbreakfromallthefrenetic equestrianactivity. However,thistrip was notwithoutincident.In typicalOliver-Games stylethesetting wasglamorous, stylish anddramatic,and tookplaceintrueJames Bond styleatthe renowned007filmset locationofBurjalArab.Itwasnearly acase of‘YouOnlyLiveTwice’,‘Live and LetDie’, AViewtoaKill,TheLiving Daylights’,and ‘NoTime to Die’ all rolledintoonescenario. As we alreadyknowtheenigmaticJoJo, themostelegant Truckerinthelandnever doesanythingwithout asplash;literally.

WhilstinDubai,JoJo,the mainstay of TeamGames,decided to buyTeddy aJet Ski experienceatBurjalArab.Teddyhas alwaysbeen abitof adaredevil.The various membersofTeamGamesmustgettheir adrenalinekicksfromsomewhere. As achild he wouldshatterthepeaceofthebeautifully maintained yard at home by ridinghisquad bikedownasetof thirteen steps,andthen roaringofftheedgeoftheimmaculate muckheap.A JetSki experienceinDubai wasperfect.JoJoisnotmuchof aswimmer butdecided to gird herloinsandrideonthe backofthemachinefromhell,placingher trustinTeddy.Beforesettingoff,JoJoinher usuallypolitemannerengagedtheattendant instructorinconversation.“Do youhavemany

accidentshere?”“Oh yesMadam, LOTS”. Thisturnedout to besomewhatprophetic. Ridingback to shore, thedaredevilJetSki capsizedandplungedJoJointothedepths beforecuttingout.She waswearinga lifejacket,butshe wasstillflailingandsinking underwater.Herlife flashedbeforeher eyes, butatleastitwasagainstthe stunning backdropofBurjalArab.A panicked Teddy finallyhoveredoverthehorizonwithmilitary styleheroiccriesof“Don’tPanic” (that’seasy to saywhenyou’re nottheonedrowning) proceeded to haul asplutteringJoJoback aboard.Theunderwateradventurehaddone nothing forJoJo’susuallyimmaculateHair DoandshehadtheHotelHairdresserson speeddialbeforeshe evengotback to shore. “Onemustalwayslookone’sbestDarling!”.

DuringJoJo’snear-death experience, things were alsomovingsouthbackathome. NicolaLickley, Sofia’strainerhadbeen reevaluatingherprioritiessinceherdaughter Izzyhaddecided to relocatetoHolland to gainmoreexperienceandfurtherher career there. Thisled to Nicola concludingthatshe wanted to focusher owncareereffortson herthreehorseswhich wouldnotleaveher withenoughtime forSofiaandher team. Katie wascalledin forameetingandthe decision wasmadetomoveyards,that yard being KatieBailey’sinGloucester. Based amereeightmilesfromCheltenham,this decisionmeantthattravellingtime forall wouldbe farmoremanageable,andthere

wouldbemoretime foractualtraining. Thepasttwo yearshadseenJoJo clockup 52,000milesbackwardsand forwards to Staffordshire, theequivalent ofcircumnavigatingtheglobe.

Operation Team Re-location wasput intoaction,andit wasworsethanmoving house.Itisastonishingjusthow many saddlepadsone canaccruein ashort periodoftime.Justoveraweekafter e-locating, TeamGameswasonthemove again,thistime to competeatLeMans with Cadillacwho wasonhot formwith quitealotof wind underhis tail.Theduo acquittedthemselves welland camehomein theribbons.However,the Big Eventofthe trip wasValentine’sDay,which involvedmuch plottingandsubterfugebetween Katieand a‘YoungMan’.Another young TeamGBR DressageriderandgreatfriendswithSofia. AdelightedSofiahadalreadybeen surprisedwithanenormousbouquetof flowers uponarrivalin Le Mans,butthere wasmoreafoot. Katie wastaskedwith distractingSofia forasecretdelivery, gettingheroutofthelorryanddown to the stablesonanerrand.‘ThePlan’ was to fillthelorrywithhugeheartshaped balloons forher returnwhilstitwas unoccupied.Timingandsubterfuge was ofthe essenceforthisdelicatesurprise gesture, butno-onehadnotifiedJoJo. That canbeclassifiedas aFail.So,when thegorgeousballoons were deliveredthey were met by ahighly startled, yetquietly thrilledJoJo.Wrong Target.Howeverthe balloonsendedupmakingTWOladiesrather happy. Andtheblossomingfriendship remainsunfettered by thisslightglitch.

The coming weekswillsee TeamGames headoff toAddingtonandLierinBelgium withbothHoneyand Cadillac,and we will reportbackfromthere. Nodoubtitwillbe interspersedwithaccompanyingadventures. Onelastthing, Ihavea question. Nowknowinguntilnowthatchivalrous, handsome youngmen still existed,whyis itthattheyonlyskipped my generation?
