Leading lady rider Ellen Whitaker and Equimax Ocolado have been selected to represent Great Britain in the Nations Cup competition, held at the Ghan Toot Racing and Polo Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
Ellen and Equimax Ocolado, who are sponsored by Virbac Animal Health, manufacturers of leading worming brands Equimax and Eraquell, flew out of the UK on Monday, along with team mates Robert Smith, Guy Williams and Ben Mayer, ready for the competition, which started on Thursday. This winning combination caught the eye of the selectors after a fantastic 2009 which included winning the Leading Show Jumper of the Year Grand Prix at the Horse of the Year Show.
Said Product Manager Callum Blair, ‘We are delighted to be associated with Ellen, who along with Equimax Ocolado and indeed all her horses had a superb 2009. Her selection with Equimax Ocolado for the Team GB Abu Dhabi Nations Cup is a tremendous start to 2010! We would like to offer her our congratulations and wish her every success in Abu Dhabi.’
