Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital is the official equine hospital and veterinary partner for the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games, which will be held September 25 through October 10 at the Kentucky Horse Park outside of Lexington, Ky.
Dr. Tom Riddle stated “Rood and Riddle is delighted to partner with Alltech to sponsor a symposium for sport horse veterinarians from around the world. We timed the meeting so that veterinarians could attend the symposium and stay for the Games, which begin the day following the closure of the symposium. We are assembling an outstanding group of speakers who will offer the latest information on veterinary care and nutrition of the sport horse.”
Dr. Pearse Lyons said “Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital is the world’s foremost equine hospital. Marketing through education has always been Alltech’s philosophy, so what better way to showcase the latest technologies in equine health and nutrition than through this Symposium. This meeting will bring some of the top equine vets from all over the world to Lexington, Kentucky to discuss the best way to improve the health of our equine athletes.”
