Horse Of The Week - Jaffa.

This 26-year-old Thoroughbred, stands at 16.1hh and is called Jaffa. Jaffa 2She is owned by Alison Richardson and has been since she was 4-years-old. Alison purchased Jaffa at Ascot Sales as an unbroken, rejected racehorse. Jaffa 7PAlison explains “I used to show jump with Jaffa, but she was such a live-wire in the collecting ring. We then moved on to novice one day eventing, cross country and pleasure rides. Nowadays though, we just hack around the village twice a week and occasionally I take her up to the forest for a spin around the leafy lanes. Jaffa has an inquisitive nature and really enjoys getting out for a ride. She grabs the bit from my hand whenJaffa 8P I tack her up, and is still able to throw in the odd buck for a bit of fun! Let’s just say she has mellowed with age!”   Jaffa 9P“I plan to keep riding Jaffa as much as we possibly can. This is a horse for whom retirement is not an option. She just loves being handled, and is well known for tearing down the field whinnying and whickering when she sees my car.” “As she aged Jaffa’s coat was becoming very thick which lead to her frequently overheating. She seemed Jaffa 6Pdepressed and lost the spark of life, it was almost as if it was all too much trouble. I had a chat with the Feedmark nutritionist, who suggested the supplement C-Plus which was new at the time. After only a few weeks on C-Plus, Jaffa was back to her bright, cheery self! Her coat eventually seemed to right itself and she was back to chasing around the field with her 6 year old boyfriend, Dylan. Once she was on the C-Plus, Jaffa also managed to maintain her weight.” Jaffa 4A FREE 3kg tub of C-Plus is on its way to Jaffa for being our Horse Of The Week!
