Made from all natural ingredients, they contain optimum levels of balanced premium minerals, vitamins and protected trace elements in a highly palatable form. Hypocare is a gentle cleansing spray: it is a topical application that mirrors the body’s own immune system; by working naturally alongside the body it kills all the bacterial, viral and fungal infections on contact. Stain Away is a quick, easy and non-rinse stain removal. It makes light work of travel stains and quickly removes sweat and stable stains. Mud Repeller & Coat Conditioner offers instant shine and condition, coating individual hair strands and protecting against dust and stains. It will also help to prevent thinning of tails, as the comb will just glide through. Refresh and relax your horse after work with Groom Away’s Lavender No Rinse Bodywash. It also includes a natural herbal oil which also helps soothe minor cuts and abrasions. Seal to Heal is a flexible wound dressing, which provides a protective layer in 60 seconds. A safe and hygienic product, it keeps flies, mud and bacteria out and provides outstanding results.

Equisafety Hatband
THREE TO BE GIVEN AWAY!
Rule 51 of the Highway Code advises horse riders to wear a light showing white to the front and red to the rear. With this in mind Equisafety’s range now includes items that feature strips of LED lights which strobe across the product offering the driver the opportunity to access another viewpoint in his peripheral vision. These products contain white or red lights depending on where they are worn. White lights are always worn when moving towards oncoming traffic and red lights are worn at the rear to signal to drivers that there is a vehicle in front. Why red? Well first we associate it with a warning and secondly red has the lowest impact on your vision at night, i.e. your eyes recover their night vision faster when they’re exposed to red light. Therefore, the Hatband features white lights on the front and red on the back; the breastplate has white lights and the tailguard has red lights. Equisafety are offering three readers the chance to win one of their brand new USB chargeable hatbands with LED Lights.
