Nutrena returned to Texas once again as the title sponsor of the American Eventing Championship. Nutrena produces top quality feeds for horses throughout all stages of life and competition. Two of the most popular products for eventers are the XNT and Fuel from the ProForce® Line. These feeds contain higher fat levels to provide energy to equine athletes. They combine this high level of fat with a controlled starch. Controlled starch programs benefit event horses in two ways. First, a controlled starch diet reduces digestive upsets and ulcers. Second, controlled starches allow performances horses to maintain the highest level of stamina. Nutrena Representative Sharon Choney says that, “The hardest part of an event horse is their high level of fitness. Controlled starches ensure that your horse wont be too excitable for the first phase, but also that he will have enough energy to finish the two jump phases.”

Nutrena has been a long standing supporter of the United States Eventing Association and of the sport itself. “The energy at events is beyond compare,” says Nutrena Representative Ruthie Stotler, “We share the passion that eventers have for the animals.”

Stop by the Nutrena booth inside the Indoor Arena to learn more about their products and enter for your chance to win a month’s worth of feed. For more information on Nutrena please visit NutrenaWorld.com.

Rule Refresher: Not a Non-Compete? Not Allowed on Grounds

Bringing your future eventing prospect with you to a horse trial as a non-compete can be a wonderful educational opportunity for horses not used to the hustle and bustle of the show grounds. However, horses must be registered with the show office as a "non-compete" horse in order to be allowed on grounds. Bringing horses to an event to school, to provide lessons, or to campaign for sale is strictly prohibited.
