The Shazada is the world's longest endurance race covering 400 km (248.5 miles) in five days, and is based at the historic township of St. Albans, New South Wales, northwest of Sydney. This is certainly not an event for the faint-hearted with the ride's motto--"to finish is to win"--perfectly summarizing the challenge.
Gary Bennett from Mudgee, New South Wales could not have asked for a better 60th birthday present by not only completing the Shazada but earning the prestigious Best Conditioned and Managed Horse award with his Arabian Karabil Yaningi. The pair completed each day in the top few placings and finished in second place overall.
Gary credits Equi-Jewel, Endura-Max, and Endura-Max Plus as vital components of his winning program. All of these products are available from Kentucky Equine Research.
