SUPER SOLVITAX TO CONTINUE SPONSORSHIP OF DRESSAGE IN CUMBRIA

Following two successful seasons of dressage sponsorship at Cumbrian venues, Super Solvitax has confirmed on-going support for four championships known as the Super Solivitax Herbal Oils Summer Dressage Championships.

Blackdyke Farm, which has held affiliated and unaffiliated dressage competitions for a number of years, hosted a Super Solvitax fixture last season and will now enjoy on-going generous support for what will be known as The Super Solvitax Herbal Oils Summer Dressage Championships.

The series will run from April to September at Preliminary, Novice, Elementary and Medium levels and will operate separately at each level as a points accumulator. Horse/rider combinations can achieve points for placings during the series and the Champions and Reserves at each of the four levels will receive some very generous prizes from Super Solvitax. Prizes will include clothing for both horse and rider and in addition, a choice of products from the highly regarded Super Solvitax range, used and endorsed by, amongst other leading competitors, Ian Stark, MBE.

Tony Day, Marketing Manager for the Super Solvitax range confirmed the 2001 sponsorship, saying, “Supporting dressage has proven interesting and popular and we have met a large number of competitors at these competitions.

“Blackdyke Farm is a very busy venue with good facilities and we are delighted to help with support for their developing competition schedule.”

Blackdyke Farm owners John and Anne Collier have increased the number of dressage competitions they host and Anne said, “We have been encouraged by very good entries for our dressage competitions and we are obviously delighted that Super Solvitax will be continuing their Summer Championships here.

“This series is especially popular as it is open to both affiliated and unaffiliated riders and horses. Competitors enjoy the opportunity to compete for what are very good prizes - it’s good to have this series in the north and we’ll enjoy working alongside Super Solvitax.

The first of the Super Solvitax Herbal Oils Dressage Championship fixtures is scheduled to take place at Blackdyke Farm on Sunday, April 29 and schedules (sae) will be available from the beginning of the month.
