San Marcos, CA —January 10, 2012— Australian eventing riders Clayton and Lucinda Fredericks, 2008 Olympic team Silver Medalists, are proud to give Equine Matrix to their horses.  They find that Equine Matrix has helped their competition horses to be the best they can be. 

The husband-and-wife duo are part of Team Matrix, a global line-up of riders who trust Equine Matrix and its line of supplements.  Equine Matrix products are certified 100% organic, all natural, and are FEI Laboratory Anti-Doping Certified.

“Competing at the professional level, we have to follow strict guidelines as to what goes into our horses, and with Equine Matrix we know it is safe to use because it has been tested and certified Anti-Doping by the FEI Laboratory,” said Clayton, who won the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI4* in 2007.

“Team Fredericks” has many impressive wins in the eventing world.  Lucinda and her mare Headley Britannia have won all three of the CCI4* events in the Rolex Grand Slam of Eventing – the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event, the Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials and the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials.  Headley Britannia is the only mare ever to have won all three of these events.

For Clayton, 2005 was the turning point in his competitive career when he won the inaugural FEI Eventing World Cup title.  He then went on to take the titles at Chatsworth, Saumur, and the British Open Championship before going on to win individual Silver and team Bronze medals at the FEI World Equestrian Games in Aachen in 2006.

Both Clayton and Lucinda credit Equine Matrix for playing a major role in the success their horses have achieved.  “I don’t know what I would do without Equine Matrix.  It keeps my horses focused, and allows them to compete at 100%,” said Lucinda, whose win at Rolex Kentucky came in 2009, two years after her husband’s.

Equine Matrix has naturally occurring whole food nutrients including biotin for hoof and coat health. The immune system is improved with the complex beta-glucans.  Beta-glucans have been scientifically shown to increase horses’ protection against immune related disease including EHV, Equine Herpes Virus.   It has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial traits as well.  Many people use Equine Matrix instead of injected calming agents to help their horses focus.

Equine Matrix promotes general good health for all horses, not just athletes.  It is effective with pregnant mares, babies, and seniors.  It is also good for older horses that are more prone to immunity problems, as they often don't get the right level of nutrition because of their failing teeth.

Equine Matrix is available at www.EquineMatrix.com , as well as at FarmVet, Equine Tack & Nutritionals, Palm Beach Equine and other tack stores.
