Sponsored Riders

Horse Supplements Direct would not run without the support of the people around us and we love to support hard working riders who have the same beliefs we do!

During the short time we have owned HSD we have had the privilege to welcome some deserving riders with plans to welcome more.

Most Memorable Moment?
When I broke in my first ever home bred colt
Favourite horse?
It's hard to pick a favourite as they are all good in their own way. 
I'd have to say that Zeus holds a special place in my heart. A dressage horse that had never jumped before, who took me around my first ever juniors start at 1.20m. He was all heart and a very special boy to me... He's now living his best life in retirement

How long have you been riding?

I have been riding since was 8 years old. I started competing when I was 13 and I branched out to train my own horses at 17.

 

Most Memorable Moment:

My most memorable moment would have to be coming back after a 10-month break with no riding after a serious accident resulting in breaking my pelvis and coming back to my first comp back in the 95 at Geelong Horse Trials and winning on my dressage score of 29 penalties.
I am also so proud of my recent win at Wandin Horse Trials in my horses first 95.

 

Favourite Horse?

The same horse is a horse I almost gave up on but persisted with and thanks to my family support, coaches and his amazing supplements getting him feeling his best and feeling settled. He is the horse of a lifetime, with many more wins to come as we move up the levels.

 

Advice for upcoming riders?

Always run your own race. Everyone gets there at a different time and different ways. Just take it step-by-step and you will get there and be better than you could imagine

 

How will HSD benefit your horses?
Horse Supplements Direct will benefit my horses incredibly. It’s so important to me to have my horses feeling and looking as good as they possibly can to get the best results. As riders we put so much time and effort in but it’s pointless if our horses aren’t feeling their best and thanks to HSD my horses are both looking and feeling their best.

 

Favourite/ go-to supplement?
My favourite go to supplement is Digestive EQ by Poseidon. It is imperative to our horse’s gut health and helps my horses at comps with their nerves as it keeps their guts settled, also a big advocate of Tuff Rock EJF to help my horses stay sound and happy as well as Tuff rock Poultice post XC to assist in swelling reduction and inflammation for my horse’s joints.
