Get Up to Two Free Tubes of ULCERGARD® at AEC
Receive up to two tubes of ULCERGARD® (omeprazole)—absolutely free—when you come to the Merial booth at Nutrena USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Land Rover. That’s up to eight days worth of valuable ulcer prevention. Merial is a longtime partner of the USEA, and joins us in Tryon as the Title Sponsor of the Intermediate division.
Put the odds of winning in your favor by protecting your horse against equine stomach ulcers. During times of stress—such as travel, competition, training and unfamiliar environments1—horses are at risk for developing equine stomach ulcers, and ulcers can develop in as little as five days.2
ULCERGARD is the only product proven and approved by the FDA that prevents equine stomach ulcers in horses*—giving you the best chance to avoid poor performance associated with equine stomach ulcers. No wonder ULCERGARD is the No. 1 veterinarian-recommended medication for preventing equine stomach ulcers3 in horses like yours.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION: ULCERGARD can be used in horses that weigh at least 600 pounds. Safety in pregnant mares has not been determined.
*When administered 8 or 28 days, ULCERGARD is proven to effectively prevent gastric ulcers in horses exposed to stressful conditions.

Eventing 101: The Show Secretary is Your New Best Friend. Here’s How to Keep Them Happy
Familiarizing yourself with the key players at each horse trial is an important step to your success at your next competition. One of those important figures is the show secretary. Think of the show secretary as the mastermind behind most of the organizational efforts related to each horse trial. They manage entries, the show schedule, ride times, stabling, and so much more. Without the hard work of the show secretary and their office staff, a horse trial simply would not be able to operate.
