Ocala, FL (August 31, 2013) – Enduring relationships aren’t sprints, they’re marathons. For the last 17 years Chester Weber has relied on Cosequin to keep his teams in winning form and now the nine-time U.S. National Champion will welcome Cosequin,, from Nutramx Laboratories, Inc., as the Official Marathon Carriage Sponsor for Chester Weber Combined Driving.

Cosequin has been part of Weber’s program for his horses since 1996 and has shared in the team’s successful performances en route to nine national titles and two World Equestrian Games medals. As Team Weber’s international star continues to rise this season towards Normandy 2014, Cosequin assured the team’s strong and sound wire-to-wire lead in the Saumur CAI-A4, win at the CAI-A4 Caen World Equestrian Games Test event, and top three finish at Aachen. Team Weber’s regimen includes Welactin® Equine, an omega-3 supplement designed to support overall equine wellness and Cosequin ASU Plus.

“I am a firm believer in keeping my horses on a program and part of that program includes Cosequin’s broad spectrum joint enhancer,” says Weber. “My team has met with great success — from earning National Four-In-Hand titles nine years in a row to Individual Silver and Team Bronze medals at last summer’s World Driving Championships in Germany — and part of that success stems from my program.

“Having horses on Cosequin means I have a sound group of athletes who show up for work eager to train. Building a world-class team is about having horses with experience and, to gain experience, horses need to be sound and ready to work every day. I recommend Cosequin to anyone interested in building a great horse, because a fit horse can work hard and gain experience – an essential ingredient in the development of a great horse. “From the start, one of my older horses had such obvious improvement that it made me a believer in the product. I have even had radiographs on some older horses improve after being on

the product, which usually doesn’t happen.”

The Cosequin Joint Health Supplement sponsorship will emblazon the front of Team Weber’s marathon carriage through the 2013 European tour, 2013 US National Championships in Kentucky and 2014 season including Live Oak International, Europe and – upon qualifying – Normandy and the World Equestrian Games. Combined driving enthusiasts can also look forward to this partnership delivering action- packed helmet-cam coverage of Weber’s horses negotiating some of the most technical marathon courses in the world.

“I believe in Cosequin,” he says. “There is no question in my mind that it will make a horse’s career last longer. I will continue to use Nutramax Laboratories’ products because I need fit and healthy horses to be successful.” Cosequin formulas are designed to provide different levels of support depending upon a horse’s overall joint health and/or level of activity. Young or old, whether a horse is a driving champion or trail blazer, there is a product to suit their needs. Learn more at www.cosequinequine.com.
