My 5 yr old mare can be an absolute star at events or a complete time bomb (which often explodes) -she has become the typical cocky 5 yr old who obviously feels really well and just can't resist partying and showing off in the warm up and up the centre line!
my trainer has recommended i give her a calming paste before competing just to take the edge off her-can anyone give me any feedback of those that have worked and those that haven't? She isn't being fed anything at the moment because we are blessed with such amazing grass and doens't really need a calmer for between events as apart from the odd moment she is pretty good-hence the reason i'm not looking for a daily calming supplement.
I would be grateful for any recommendations!
 
I have used Equi oxyshot! you give about half an hour before comp and really takes the edge off and settles them down! worked for mine anyway! And it is all 'legal' so to speak!
 
I always use tempralax [sp] its not a paste but a liquid its is expensive but i find it very good.
