"He moves more elastically and recovers well from hard training sessions and competitions"
April 2014
My name’s Sydney, I’m 16 and I have been riding for 14 years and competing EFA Dressage for over 6 years. I am currently on the NSW Youth Development Squad and am incredibly lucky to be sponsored by Rose-Hip Vital Equine and Horseland Terrey Hills.
I started riding when I was just 2 years old, coming from a horse experienced family I have always had mum (Rachelle Evans) to teach me all the ins and outs of what I know now. Having this background I was always on horses that grew my confidence and learnt on so I am very grateful for this. I have had some super ponies that have taught me so much and led me to where I currently am.
My main competition pony is ‘Dara Park Tequila Sunrise’ (Sunny). Sunny is an 8 year old Welsh/Arab/Riding pony who I competing medium level and training some advanced movements. We have been training Sunny since he was three years old, so I was privileged to compete in all of the Young pony classes which was an invaluable experience. My coach of 7 years Deirdre stock has contributed to all of sunny’s successes and without her we both wouldn’t be where we are heading now. Sunny has won numerous state and national titles in the past few years but overall he has the biggest heart and personality to match and is such a pleasure to own and have in our lives.
Sunny has been on Rose-Hip Vital about a year now and since he has been on this supplement we have noticed that he has maintained his soundness no matter what surface we have put him on, his coat is immaculate and skin is very healthy, he hasn’t had a cold or cough since he has been on it as well. We feel that it is a huge benefit to have him in rose hip vital equine and is paramount to his future dressage career as I would like to one day compete him at Grand Prix level.
In our horsey clan we also have our family stallion ‘Belcam Geldof’ (Bronson) using rose hip vital equine for approximately 12 months. Bronson is an FEI stallion, training Grand Prix but has had multiple severe tendon injuries, enough to consider retirement. Since he has be on Rose-Hip vital equine his soundness has not faulted and his overall wellbeing has dramatically improved. Bronson is 18 years old and we feel that this product has given his longevity in his dressage career with the aim to compete at grand prix in the future.
We can’t thank Rose-Hip vital enough for supplying us with such a successful and fantastic product!

We started using Rose-Hip Vital Equine a couple of months ago on Belcam Geldof (Bronson – 18) and Dara Park Tequila Sunrise (Sunny – 8) we have seen outstanding results from both horses within such a short time.
Bronson is an FEI stallion that has had some severe suspensory trauma to his legs over the last few years. Since he has been on Rose-hip Vital he moves more elastically and recovers well from hard training sessions and competitions and generally has a lot more energy. He has an amazingly shiny coat and is looking extremely healthy.
Sunny my super pony has never had a severe injury however I felt as a preventative for joint pain or arthritic changes as well as better health I would try him on the Rose-hip Vital, the noticeable changes I have seen is Sunny’s incredible work ethic he never seems to get tired, he also has glossy coat since using Rose-hip Vital.
Both horses also seem to have a higher immunity to colds passing through the stables.
I am so impressed with how helpful the team has been, they have really put my horses first and wanting them to feel the best that they can as well as the ongoing support for me. If you are looking for a joint supplement for you or your horse I couldn’t recommend Rose-Hip Vital Enough!”
