Simply the best footing for your horse

Simply the Best!

"One thing I have learned during my years training and taking care of horses is the importance of arena footing.
This is especially important at home as this is where my horses spend most of their time. In turn, the footing in my training arenas should not be the same as the footing in a show ring.

I prefer a slightly looser formula at home than we see in most top show venues.
Karen Leeming of Footing First and I have carefully produced a blend for my training area which I find to be perfect for my horse's daily routine."

Adding Travelright arena footing to our indoor arena was the missing link to our training facility. We are looking forward to having a dust free ring that does not have to be watered in the winter months.

We have already noticed how much more comfortable the horses travel to the point that we have to set our courses distances more open to allow for the length of the stride the horses are working on more naturally.
