“Horse Week has brought together dozens of equine associations and organizations for one singular cause, Celebrate the Horse. The Equine Network is thrilled to have the support of the USEA in the second year of this video event and the other equine groups that have joined the movement to help support Horse Week because it raises the industry as a whole,” said Dave Andrick, Equine Network VP of Data and Content Sales.

The horses in trainer Joe Davis’ barn at Horseshoe Indianapolis don’t just get standard hay in their nets each day. Throughout the afternoon, Davis or one of his employees opens the HayGain machine that sits at the end of his shed row and pulls out a warm, beautiful-smelling bale of freshly-steamed hay to fill their nets.
