With his number one mount Utamaro d’Ecaussines, Great-Britain’s Joe Clee competed at both the World Equestrian Games in Caen in 2014 and the European Championships in Aachen in 2015. Clee has also been delivering great result for Team GB on the Nations Cup circuit, being a steady contributor of clear rounds. Since last year, the British rider who is based in Belgium, has been using Equine 74 Gastric and nowadays Clee uses it for his whole stable.

“Equine 74 Gastric was recommended to me by Dutch horsemen Johan Heins and Yves Houtackers. I actually started using it last year, just before the European Championships in Aachen. When I felt it worked for my top horses Utamaro d’Ecaussines, I thought it would work for all my horses,” Joe Clee states.

Being a rider at the highest level, Joe Clee knows what it takes for the horses to perform and what kind of stress goes along with that. “With the sport nowadays, sometimes you put your horses under a high level of stress. They have to travel a lot; and the shows are impressive. Because of the stress, the level of acid in their stomachs will increase and that is why I think about 90 percent of all sport horses do have stomach problems.”

To reduce this kind of problems, Joe has tried many products. “But, still the horses suffered a bit from stress. I can’t say that they had real problems, but when I started them on Equine 74 Gastric for about a month I could really see a difference. The horses look happier and healthier. And horses that feel better, will perform better as well!”

It takes horsemanship to know what is going on inside of a horse and being a true horseman, Joe Clee sees a long-term improvement with his horses thanks to Equine 74 Gastric. “It works as a great maintanance, you can use it every day as much as you want. Since it helps the stomach, it will also help the food to work better and because of this the body will work better and it will raise the level of energy. I believe it works through one system, so if one part does not work well, the other parts will suffer from it as well. Equine 74 Gastric helps to balance the system.”

A few particular eating problems Joe Clee noticed with some of his horses are solved after using Equine 74 Gastric. “I had a few horses with eating problems, but it is much better now. Also with a few horses that were suffering more from stress, and a few mares, I can see a great improvement now.”

As Joe Clee has been using Equine 74 Gastric for a year now, he can really tell the difference with his horses compared to previous years. “I can say my horses are healthier now. They look better, their coats are better and they feel much happier. Horses can’t talk obviously, but I can see a difference with all of them.”
