Looking For An Energy Booster?

During short, explosive efforts such as show jumping and cross-country, the horses’ muscles obtain energy mainly from glucose and glycogen. 
Starches and sugars are good sources of glucose and provide short, explosive bursts of energy. 
This glucose is also broken down again, releasing lactic acid, the amount of which depends on the intensity and duration of the work. Cavalor An Energy Boost provides important nutrients and an extra dose of quick energy before, during, and after intense work to help horses give their best performance and to assist in recovery.

Sprenger Comfort Roller Super Soft Spur

THE Sprenger Comfort Roller Super Soft Spur has been developed with a rowel that is significantly thicker and more rounded than on the original Comfort Roller spurs.

When in contact with the horse, the rowel rolls with the horse and thus avoids rubbing and chafing on the fur and skin of sensitive horses.

With its unique fit and design, the spur can be adjusted to the foot by bending and the intelligent spur strap loop helps provide a perfect fit on the boot.

The Sprenger Comfort Roller Super Soft Spur is made of break-proof, high-quality stainless steel.

It is priced at £64.
