EN’s own Kate Samuels relies on KER ClockIt to tell her when her warmblood Leo is really working and when he’s just being lazy. See her write-up on the app here.

Know what looks great under a Christmas tree? A shiny new OTTB. But don’t wait around for a delivery from Santa, as we hear he’s more of a reindeer connoisseur than a horseman.

Take a tip from Tennessee eventer Shannon O’Hatnick, who snagged this handsome guy just in time for the holidays. Black Market (After Market – Keep the Feeling, by Kris S.) is a 4-year-old Kentucky-bred OTTB who was retired from the track after seven starts.

So fancy — can’t wait to see him in a startbox. Congrats, Shannon! Here are three more OTTBs who are ready for a new career.

Gettigan’s owner is sending him off from racing with gratitude for his accomplishments on the track. This young gelding has had a respectable racing career with $100,000 in earnings and three wins in 39 starts. He last raced on Nov. 11, 2016 and finished second.

He is reported to be nice to work with, sound and without vices. FLF admired his athletic build and nice, fluid movement at the jog. Here’s your chance to take a cute gelding to next year’s RRP at a bargain price.

True Simon is so truly alluring that he’s worth taking home just to look at! His soon-to-be manly physique and his impossibly cute expression that is sparkly yet vulnerable will melt your heart.

But it gets better! Simon is athletic, and when he grows into his adult self, he will be jaw-dropping. He’s studious but playful, curious but analytical, and he’s fascinated by new challenges and unknown things. This is a horse with silver screen quality and we can’t wait to see who he will become.

Enter to win this prize package valued at $160 from Nupafeed!

Happy Sunday, EN! It’s day seven of EN’s 12 Days of Christmas, and today we’re giving away a Nupafeed prize package valued at $160. The prize package includes three liters of Nupafeed Magnesium Daily Liquid and two Nupafeed Magnesium Concentrate Oral Syringes.

Using magnesium to manage stress and anxiety in horses is not a new concept, but Nupafeed Magnesium Supplement exclusively contains MAH (magnesium-aspartate-hydrochloride). This unique form of magnesium, pioneered by the German pharmaceutical company Verla-Pharm, has exceptionally high absorption rates to improve results.

One look at the testimonials page on the Nupafeed website will show you that countless top riders from all disciplines have successfully used the Magnesium supplement with impressive results. Here’s a look at what eventers are saying about the product:

Sinead Halpin: “I’ve noticed a huge improvement to my horses’ mental and physical well-being at home and the ability to maintain focus at competitions.”

Jen McFall: “I was looking for a product that could miraculously change a performance horse’s ‘nervous edge’ to a ‘winning edge.’ After trying Nupafeed on a few of my own horses at competitions and getting fantastic results, I am recommending this product to all of our clients at Dragonfire.”

Tamie Smith: “The difference Nupafeed has made in my horses is remarkable. Upon putting my horses on their Magnesium supplement, some of the horses who had felt anxious, specifically in competition, became incredibly ridable. It has been a game-changer for my team and is something you have to experience to believe!”
