🐎 Well done to the team at Ben Ahrens Racing for todays win at Grafton with Just for pleasure taking out her Maiden in fine form🥇

A nice feeling to see Just For Pleasure secure her maiden win at start #7 over the Grafton 1195mtrs this afternoon. Given a positive steer by Ray Spokes from the coveted barrier 1, the 4yo mare lived up to her recent good form, jumping straight into the bridle and controlling the race from the outset. A homebred for Epsom Lodge, by Grandview Thoroughbreds Under The Louvre, she now heads home to let the dust settle and see where her next assignment may take her 🥇

Is your horse performing at 💯?

Osteoarthritis and joint disease are the number one causes of lameness in horses.

Arthramid - How it works?

🟣 Arthramid® Vet is a uniquely cross-linked 2.5% polyacrylamide hydrogel, which adheres to the synovial lining through its ability to exchange water molecules.

🟣 Within 14 days, the gel becomes integrated into the synovial lining and forms a thick, cushion-like membrane.

🟣 It creates the formation of a new and hypercellular synovial cell lining, which improves the quality of synovial fluid (lubrication). These actions help to reduce synovitis (joint inflammation).
