As a long-term partner of British Eventing and with a number of our team (including MD, Simon Middleton!) being avid eventers themselves, we are thrilled to re-affirm our commitment to the sport, riders and BE members. 

As the exclusive UK distributor of trusted premium equestrian brands including Equipe, uvex, Sprenger, Amerigo and Veredus and sponsoring top riders including Laura Collett, Ros Canter and Oliver Townend, this partnership is a natural progression of our passion for the sport.

Produced in conjunction with EquiRatings, it is, like Zebra Products, a trusted affiliate within eventing.

“At Zebra Products, we are passionate about supporting performance through quality and innovation, and this partnership allows us to engage directly with a knowledgeable and committed eventing community. We’re excited to see the podcast continue to grow and to be part of those conversations throughout the season.”

British Eventing CEO Rosie Williams added: “Zebra Products has been a trusted and valued partner of British Eventing for many years, and we are thrilled to extend that relationship to the BE podcast.

“The Podcast has grown into a key communication channel for our sport. With Zebra Products’ support, we’re excited to build on that momentum in 2026 and continue strengthening how we connect and engage with the eventing community.”

December 2025 saw the end of another fantastic year for Zebra Products, including celebrating our 25^th anniversary, Zebra riders accomplishing ever-greater achievements and some fabulous new product launches and collaborations but also saw the end of a golden career.

Some of our regular readers may remember a short film debuted in October courtesy of our friends

at The Saddle Bank, starring our very own Mrs Middleton, Lindsay, and her gorgeous grey gelding, Bouncer, recalling their incredible journey from Irish hunter to BE novice to 4 x winner at Grand Prix Dressage level. 

At the grand old age of 19, Bouncer is retiring from competition to enjoy a quieter life, but will be enjoying lots of lovely hacking with Lindsay and Simon around the gorgeous Welsh countryside he is lucky to call home. Dedicated horse manager Alix and assistant horse manager, Charlotte, will continue to keep this superstar in the style and care to which he is accustomed!

Bouncer and Lindsay show that, together, the best partnerships can achieve anything that they set their mind to and inspire us all every day. I am sure you will join us in wishing this gentleman of a horse the happiest and longest retirement with his friends and those who love him most.
