Veredus Carbon Gel Absolute Boot

The Carbon Gel Absolute Boot from Veredus by Marcus Ehning has been developed to provide the very best protection, by extending the protective surface of the gel and carbon from the flexor tendon to the fetlock in an innovative inverted Y shape.
The carbon outer shell is not only ultra-lightweight, it is also highly resistant to shocks especially in the areas of the tendon and fetlock, which are more at risk of knocks and bangs from other legs.
The Nitrexgel’s 3mm membrane is able to dissipate impacts by over 40% ensuring additional safety of your horses’ legs and exceptional comfort.

Truly Versatile

In this issue Sprenger Bitting Consultant, Lindsay Middleton looks at the Nathe Pelham Collection and why it is so versatile.
The Nathe Pelham Bit range has been developed to assist mouth sensitive horses to perform at the highest level.
All the Nathe Pelham Bits feature variable rein options to adjust the leverage effect on the poll and bit guards to protect the lips.
Explains Lindsay: “The Nathe bit range is ideal for when jumping horses that can be a bit keen into their fence.
“When riders need to take a check coming into a jump the Nathe Pelham works really well, especially for horses that are sensitive in the mouth.
“The Nathe mouthpiece combined with a Pelham cheek works really well for keen horses.  The bit is soft on the mouth but provides control thanks to the cheeks and curb.”
The Nathe Mullen Mouth Pelham Bit with Port relieves pressure on the middle of the tongue and has bit guards to protect the lips.  It comes in both soft and hard mouth pieces.
The Nathe Gag Pelham Bit with Flexible Mullen Mouth is suitable for strong horses and provides contact on the mouth, poll and lower jaw.

Bucas – Pioneering Rug Design Since 1981

With its distinctive green, clover logo, the name Bucas has been synonymous with innovative rug designs for over 40 years.
The brand was founded in 1981 when most horses would have had a traditional New Zealand turnout and a jute stable rug, a far cry from the extensive wardrobe of most horses today.
Even just one horse’s collection can now include a number of winter rugs in different weights to suit the weather both stable and turnout, a lightweight rug for spring showers and a fly rug to ward of pesky insects in the summer.
