On days like this where a little bit of dedication is needed, Lockie and Diego are very thankful for their double-dose of BetaVet Echinacea and maybe followed by a little dose of Equi-Cough to stop them getting the flu (maybe a little dash for Christine and Zoie as well)! Their Bates saddles which are now totally soaked and will probably take 3 days to dry out but will need to be ready again in the morning....so hopefully with a bit (a lot) of Bates Leather Balm they will be restored to normal. Christine's Kingsland jacket from South Canterbury Saddlery which is a little on the soaked side right now, kept her warm and dry while riding so she is not grumpy and sick tomorrow. And now at the end of our wet day, we are all tucked up in our cosy stable with our yummy Dunstan dinner so we ready to fight another day tomorrow. Our sponsors just make our day a little bit easier so we thought they were worthy of a shout-out :)
