Baileys Performance is targeted at those horses who require a low starch diet but who don’t need all the calories provided by a high specification mix.
Working Horse Who Hold Weight Easily Many riders know that, as workload increases, so do their horses’ nutritional requirements but many also find that a competition mix or cube provides too many additional calories for their ‘working good-doer’. This is where new improved Performance Balancer comes in as it provided appropriate levels of essential nutrients, without unwanted calories and can be fed as the sole concentrate or added to reduced amounts of mixes or cubes. New Improved Based on Baileys’ own forage and pasture analyses, the formula has been improved to provide increased levels of those minerals found to be lacking in forage, as well as a boosted biotin content and live Actisaf yeast, for a healthy gut. It is also now more concentrated so that feeding rates are reduced and a bag will last longer. New improved Performance Balancer is the perfect option for any working or competition horse who holds weight easily - from the grassroots eventer to the Grand Prix dressage horse - supplying quality protein, vitamins and minerals to support top line, performance and recovery to the highest levels.

More amateur riders than ever at Blenheim
SsangYong Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials has led the way in giving amateur riders the chance to compete in the unique atmosphere of one of Britain’s biggest and most prestigious horse trials alongside their sporting heroes. In 2017, more grassroots riders than ever before will ride at Blenheim in the Dodson & Horrell-sponsored Eventer Challenge classes. All six Dodson & Horrell Eventer Challenges – the individual classes at 90cm and 100cm level, and the Pony Club and riding club classes at each height – are now full, and in some cases balloting has taken place. However, a wait-list will be held. Evans Jumps, builders of the beautifully presented SsangYong Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials’ three-star cross- courses, is preparing new fences
for all the Dodson & Horrell Eventer Challenge classes this year, so the tracks will have a totally fresh look and feel. Sam Horrell, CEO of Dodson & Horrell, said: “The Eventer Challenge at the SsangYong Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials is one of the highlights of our sponsorship portfolio and is a real family occasion for the Horrells, as most of us attend. “We are proud to be able to give riders the opportunity to compete at this prestigious event, which seems to get bigger and better each year. The team spirit of the competitors is great to see and it is such a fun competition for us to be involved with. We look forward to welcoming everyone in September and the winning teams will definitely be worthy winners in such a hotly contested competition.”
