4 Mitavite Malaysian Sponsored Rider - Wan Ming Growing up in a non-horsey country, I was lucky to start riding when I was 9. The riding school was about an hour away halfway up a windy mountain road and I am grateful that Mum would drive me there on weekends. During school holidays, I would work in exchange for lessons. After a fairly dismal attempt at A Level exams and not getting good grades due to a lack of effort, I was gently nudged into doing my EFA / MEM Level 1 training by my coach and got my qualification as a Level 1 Coach in At the Selangor Turf Club Equestrian Centre where I have worked for more than ten years, I have been given the opportunity to ride various horses as well as compete. I have jumped up to 1.20m and done dressage up to Elementary level. My competition horses are generally fed on Cool Performer and hay and chaff. Performa 3 Oil will be given to my older horses as it has anti - inflammatory properties as well as adding a bit more energy. 2 weeks before a competition, we increase the quantity of Performa 3 Oil as a loading period. I have also mixed Cool Performer with Formula 3. I find that Formula 3 gives the horses a bit more pep but being oat free, it does not heat up the horses too much. In 2004, I spent 8 months in the UK, working as a groom for a carriage driver / farrier, David Gulley and got my BDS Preliminary Competency Driving certificate. I had a great time and competed in carriage driving competitions, which are similar to the eventing format. I work with a lot of ex racehorses and run an Ex Racehorse Retraining Programme. In this programme, the horses are fed mainly hay and Cool Performer. I find that the Cool Performer keeps the weight on the horses but does not fizz them up, which is the last thing we need while trying to retrain a racehorse. The great thing about this diet is that you do not have to feed large quantities of Cool Performer to get a result. Some horses are also given Performa 3 Oil if their coats need an extra boost. Last year, I had the chance to compete at the Horse of the Year Show in New Zealand. Catherine Cameron, who is a Mitavite rider in NZ, found me a horse to ride and coached me through the event. I also had a lesson with Jody Hartstone on her Donnerwind. Jody is also a Mitavite rider in NZ and is one of the best dressage riders in NZ. Throughout my time at the Selangor Turf Club and while being sponsored by Mitavite, I have had clinics with Clayton Fredericks, Vicky Roycroft, and many other international riders. It has been a dream come true. The goal for this year is to continue training my exracehorse, Stanton to Novice / Elementary level dressage. He is a lovely chestnut horse by Choisir and has shown great potential. With some luck, I may find another showjumper or Stanton may just have to do both!
