As title really.. Have decided to put my mare on a calmer for a while and won some VetroCalm a while back so going to put her on that and as it's only 90 days will most likely switch to Global Herbs SuperCalm (as all their other stuff has worked for me!) as it's same price. Would just like to hear what you guys use. :)
 
I've only ever tried the instant magic, and can sasay it did help with clipping my mare. A friend of mine uses the mmagic powder daily and I must say her horse is transformed! Vet did say as it's magnesium based some horses will be more affected than others. So its worth a try and if it doesn't work go for a different based calmer :)
 
Exercise, lots of.

Ditto - usually. However, I cant do any fast work with Alf, and he gets a bit overexcited about life, so am using Stepfree from Hackup, which does a great job of taking the edge off him. He's still a bit full of himself, but in a more containable way!
 
I have one on magnesium, not sure if it helps really. I have used the Confidence EQ on him, and that is very effective when he's going into a high stress situation.
 
Topspec calmer which is cheaper, and I think better than magic. I also use the magic instant syringe (half a syringe) for when we compete, just seems to keep her from being silly and rushing her fences.
