FROM THE EDITOR

GET IN TOUCH

Welcome to the 257th edition of The Horse Trading magazine where we strive to unite our readers with a passion for horses.

E / ads@horsetrading.co.za OR studio@horsetrading.co.za

I seem to be able to relate to two of the articles that are in this month’s edition.

Recently I had to make the horrid decision to put down my dog down. It’s like losing a family member, a best friend. Although I knew it was always going to happen as she was old and had been suffering for a while, I was in complete shock and denial when the time had finally arrived to make that gut wrenching decision.

Like any pet the bond between horse and owner can be very strong and deep. As the horse’s caretaker and decision maker, you must be prepared in case of emergency, when your horse is depending on you.

Planning today makes that easier when the time comes. If you are in that difficult place in your life where you have to make this decision the article on page 22 may assist in easing your decision.

It amazes me how similar horse and humans really are.

Gastric ulcers are a really painful condition. One I can relate too. At least though I can verbalise the symptoms to my doctor and treat accordingly. Many horses suffer in silence and don’t show obvious symptoms. The article on page 14 & 15 gives some great advice on keeping your horses gut healthy.

We hope you enjoy this edition.

WHY SUPLEMENTS? It is not news to anyone that due to overpopulation, pollution, acid rain etc. that our ground no longer contains the nutrients it once did.

Scientific tests proof that 20 years ago 1 “portion� of cabbage for the iron value, would require 2 full cabbages today.

That is why us humans use supplements, so shy should animals be any different? Animals will most certainly survive on over the counter feeds, but in order for them to thrive, supplementation is an absolute must.

We expect allot from our animals in competition and longevity. The first and most vital step in nutrition is Vitamins, Minerals and Amino Acids with daily Probiotics.

A close second, then depending on predisposed genetics, age and what level of work you require from your animal, specific supplements may be required.

supplement for your animals and read ingredients contents.

Derby 2015 - another year of SA’s finest show jumping prowess clear round to challenge Esslinger. The water jump was the stumbling block for many of the horses.

This milestone event and a firm favourite on the equine calendar celebrated not only the top show jumpers from around the country but also half a decade of the Derby.

Aptly themed “The Midas Touch” the derby thrilled enthusiastic spectators.

The weekend kicked off with The Derby Ball and Rider auction held at the Kyalami Equestrian Park where guests were able to bid on their favourite to win the event.

The clear favourite raising over R35 000 was young rider Shannon Smith, however she and her horse Royal Feeds Vanya W placed fifth. The stands were graced with riding legends such as Gonda Betrix, Peter Gotz, Mickey Louw, Oliver Lazarus and the first ever Derby winner Ernie Hayward.

South Africans top show jumpers came together to compete on the gruelling Galencia Property South African Derby 2015 track and after four days of qualifying rounds, only 24 jumpers competed for the coveted title.

Twenty seven years after her last SA Derby win, Esslinger earned title of Derby Winner 2015 riding with the only clear round.

Esslinger and her horse Alzu Oregon finished with a time of 143.74, followed by Gail Foxcroft on Equifox JFK on four penalties (just a foot in the water) and a time of 147.87, and Sonia Kroon on HSB Romulus on six penalties (one pole down and two time faults) and a time of 155.32.

Although there was stiff competition spectators sat with bated breath through the Derby class waiting for another

Gut Feeling Intestinal ulcers are an unfortunate fact of life for many performance horses but it’s actually quite a common problem for all horses. Risk factors include diet, exercise, stable confinement, stress and excessive use of NSAIDs.

EGUS (Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome) is the term used to describe the formation of ulcers throughout the end of the oesophagus, the glandular and non-glandular parts of the stomach and the earlier section of the small intestine known as the duodenum.

It’s thought that ‘gastric splashing’ may be a contributing factor to this.

While research has shown that horse that are in training, in particular racing horses appear to suffer more from ulcers as well as horses with a poor feeding regime are susceptible to this painful problem.

Gastric splashing occurs when the stomach contracts during exercise allowing the acid from the glandular mucosa to splash up onto the unprotected non-glandular mucosa.

Most often horses don’t show obvious symptoms and suffer in silence, however you may notice changes for the worse in behaviour, a diminishing appetite, poor performance, abdominal discomfort (which can result in riding, girthing and grooming problems) and possibly excessive salivation, recurrent colic and a lacklustre coat.

The risk of developing ulcers can be apparent in horses in training this could be partly due to the fact that the pH of the stomach becomes more acidic during work, although this can be reduced if the horse is fed before exercising.

The stomach is split up into two main sections, the glandular mucosa and the non-glandular mucosa.

There are a variety of factors that can contribute to the incidence of ulcers.

The workload of a horse is one of the highest contributors to ulcers in horses.

14

www.horsetrading.co.za

We have heard this mantra before: Prevention is better than cure and by incorporating a well-balanced feeding and management regime the incidence of ulcers can be minimised.

• Consider supplementing with a pure Aloe Vera well known to help digestion and aids in repairing the stomach lining and soothing the stomach and digestive tract.

• Horses graze, and they can graze for up to 16 hours per day therefore the horse’s stomach constantly secretes gastric juices, the liver constantly secretes bile and the pancreas glandular mucosa. These three juices are all very acidic. When horses don’t eat for long periods the pH balance of the gastric juice drops to 2.0 or less and this is a perfect condition for an ulcer to form. Therefore it’s important even for horses in training to graze with other horses because as they chew pasture which in turn produces saliva which has a high bicarbonate level, buffering the strong acid environment in the stomach.

• When transporting horses reduce stress levels as much as possible and keep them grazing and well hydrated whilst on the move.

• Horses fed high starch diets have an increased number of microorganisms in the stomach, causing fermentation of starches, producing a more acidic environment. Ideally all horses should receive a minimum of 1% of their bodyweight in roughage (dry matter) per day. A horse should produce approximately 12 litres of saliva per day to help neutralise those gut acids.

Many ulcers in foals heal without treatment. In adults, the clinical signs may improve within one to two days of starting treatment, but it takes far longer for the ulcer to actually heal.

Be sure to follow your veterinarian’s treatment recommendations. By providing optimal feeding and management practices the digestive environment can be improved to minimise the occurrence of ulcers helping to improve the wellbeing of horses and their performance.

• Roughage is fibre, which consists of digestible and non-digestible components. Given horses are herbivores, and designed to graze and eat massive amounts of plant material, the bacteria in their hind gut are able to break down many components of fibre, with the product of this being volatile fatty acids of VFAs. Up to 70% of the average horses daily energy requirement is gained from VFAs. • Chewing stimulates the production of saliva and the amount of chewing required depends on the type of feed the horse is eating. Providing long stem hay available ad libitum will maximize the amount of chewing and production of saliva to reduce an acidic environment in the stomach. www.horsetrading.co.za

South Africa victorious at the BMW International Polo Series The 2015 BMW International Polo Series against a 23 goal team from New Zealand was a resounding success with the South Africans managing to win the Test Series after two fantastic encounters in Durban and Johannesburg.

The first Test of the two-match BMW International Polo Series took place at the Durban Shongweni Club on 13th September 2015. The events kicked off with the BMW Development Trophy Curtain Raiser, which showcased South Africa’s finest emerging talent.

The highly anticipated first Test match started strongly for South Africa who scored four goals without reply during the first two chukkas and held a commanding 6-3 lead at half time. However the strength, flair and skilled horsemanship of the New Zealand team, in particular John Paul Clarkin, emerged during the second half as the South Africans struggled to score during the last 3 chukkas.

New Zealand fought back strongly scoring 6 goals during this period of play to run out winners by 9 goals to 8. The MVP title was awarded to JP Clarkin from New Zealand with Brad & Amy Gace’s “Greased Lightening” being awarded the “Best Playing Pony” prize.

lead at the break. South Africa piled on the pressure during the second half scoring a further 6 goals to New Zealand’s four.

Gareth Evans showed all his professional skills in blocking the dangerous JP Clarkin allowing Dirk van Reenen and Tom de Bruin free passage scoring 6 goals between them.

Selby Williamson, South Africa’s number one and the oldest player on the field with 86 Test caps weighed in with three superb goals giving South Africa an 11-6 victory.

Dirk van Reenen was adjudged the Most Valuable Player with Lee-Ann Spark’s pony “Star Queen”, played by JP Clarkin, being awarded the “Best Playing Pony” prize.

Despite inclement weather conditions over both weekends, the outstanding field conditions allowed for fast, flowing polo keeping the sell-out crowds on the edge of their seats and show casing some brilliant stick work from both sides.

The win in Johannesburg resulted in the South African team winning the overall 2015 BMW International Series on goal aggregate over the two match series.

The Johannesburg Test, which took place a week later at the Waterfall Polo Estate, promised an epic battle between the youth of the South African team and the experience of New Zealand. The South Africans, determined to avenge their Shongweni defeat, pulled out all the stops against the competitive and well-regarded Kiwis to post a 5-2

Brave enough to say goodbye If your horse is doing fewer activities, is merely existing and a fraction of what he once was, trapped in a shell of a broken body it’s probably time to put the steps in place for a peaceful passing.

Putting your horse to sleep is perhaps the single greatest difficulty we may face as horse owners.

It can really be an emotional rollercoaster fraught with mixed emotions.

We go to great lengths, expense, and effort to preserve our horses (vet care, blanketing, supplements, etc.), so of course it feels distressing having to be the one to decide when to end to their lives.

However, it may be one of the most responsible and compassionate things you can do for your horse.

So how and when do we decide to euthanize? There are no clear answers that can be applied to every situation and each case must be determined on an individual basis but these thoughts may help: • • • • • • 22

Severe traumatic injury Inoperable colic Debilitation in old age Incurable, progressive disease Incurable, transmissible disease Chronic severe lameness

• Foals born with serious defects • Dangerous behavioral traits • Undue financial burden of caring for a sick or incapacitated horse • Undue suffering for any reason Every case is unique. Even in similar situations, the decision to euthanize an animal is highly individual. For example, in the case of a severe traumatic injury, such as a broken leg, the animal’s psychological makeup can influence the outcome.

Some horses may respond better to treatment than others whilst some are more co-operative than others, and some have a higher pain tolerance than others.

It’s important to address the situation from a practical standpoint. Whether you are dealing with an emergency or a long-term illness, discuss the following questions with your veterinarian to help you decide what is right for your horse: • What is the likelihood of recovery or at least a return to pasture

• • •

• • •

soundness or some level of usefulness?

Is the horse suffering?

How long will the horse experience the current level of pain or debility?

Does the horse continue to show an interest and desire to live, or has it become depressed or despondent?

What kind of special care will the horse require, and can you meet its needs?

Can you continue to provide for the horse financially?

What are your alternatives?

The decision to euthanize, or induce a painless death, should never be made without careful consideration.

The right choice is clearly the one that is in the best interest of the horse.

As much as you’ve relied on your veterinarian’s guidance through your horse’s life, this choice ultimately will be yours.
