Horses have been arriving since Saturday, taking the ferry crossing to Governors Island and settling into their new surroundings.<\/p>\n

These horses travel thousands of miles each year, and their resilience never ceases to amaze us, they really are incredible athletes.<\/p>\n

Just like any athlete, nutrition plays a huge role in keeping them fit,healthy and at their best to perform at the highest level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The global availability of Connolly\u2019s RED MILLS means that horses can stay on the same trusted diet for the duration of the competition.<\/p>\n

Together with our supplement company Foran Equine, we work with the LGCT team to ensure all horses receive the complete nutritional offering and care while on the tour.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t just provide the feed and supplements, we also provide nutritional support. Our nutritionist Nia O\u2019Malley arrived in New York last Friday to ensure everything was in order before the horses arrived.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to us that we support the teams of grooms and riders as they settle the horses into their new environment.<\/p>\n

In fact, our support starts much earlier, we have spent the last number of weeks contacting the competitors to make sure that we have everything they need at the venues and advising.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Travelling can be a stressful time <\/span><\/h4>\n

Travelling can be a stressful time for the horses and it\u2019s so important that it is made as smooth as possible and we work alongside the LGCT team to make sure the horses are receiving the best care.<\/p>\n

During periods of stress such as flying and a busy show schedule the rate of oxidative stress in a horse is higher. The reduction of oxidative stress can be managed through effective supplementation of antioxidants. Foran Equine’s V.S.L., Vitamin E Supplement and Muscle Max contain powerful antioxidants which are particularly useful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It takes a huge amount of planning and organisation to ensure both thefeed and supplements products are waiting for the horses on their arrival. The supplement products available are suited to the environment of the event.<\/p>\n

Both Connolly’s RED MILLS and Foran Equine are available in the USA and we partner with our local feed dealer, Bennies Feed Barn<\/a><\/em> to ensure the feed was delivered to the show venue on time. The innovative RED MILLS NFMS (nutrient fresh management system) packaging uses natural preservation to maintain perfect freshness in horse feed products for up to 12 months – vastly extending the shelf life of each product. This means that no matter where in the world you open a bag of Connolly\u2019s RED MILLS feed, it will be as fresh as the day it was made here in Goresbridge, Ireland.
