Veteran Care Mix a Winner for Ex-Racehorse Marco
Marco (March Manoeuvres) started his life on the race track as a
two-year-old and won the Chepstow Novice Two Day Event at the peak
of his career. He was then retrained to event and retired
competitively in 2001 following a stifle operation.
You would be hard pushed to know he was retired!
However he continued to hack out well into his twenties with his
owner Judie Crisp and this year celebrated his 28th Birthday!
Said Judie: "Marco is now a turnout and stable companion for
anyone who needs him, however more often than not you would be hard
pushed to know he was retired!"
It hasn't all been plain sailing for Marco though who last year
rapidly lost weight and started to deteriorate. The vet gave him
the all clear so Judie decided it was down to his diet and after
doing some research decided to try Veteran Care Mix from British
Horse Feeds.
Judie explains: "Prior to last summer Marco suffered with a
reoccurring digestive complaint which in turn led to severe loss of
condition. Since feeding British Horse Feeds Veteran Care mix his
condition and appetite continue to thrive - now he just needs to
hang onto his teeth!"
