This gets The Ice Queens seal of approval ☺️ Fantastic to see cool down areas being made available before getting back to stables/ lorries. We have had significantly warm weather already this year and so many venues have been unprepared. Great job Farley Hall Horse Trials

With a 24 hour delay…… there is terrible signal at Badminton, here is my snippet from the cooling zone as the excitement starts to build a couple of hours before the first horse is due out on course 🏇

The sun is shining, there is a light breeze but its still going to be hard work. Our favourite time of year Badminton XC day. The course has been beautifully built , the straw bale arch looks scary😱
Water buckets and ice are all prepared and the grooms have got their cooling stations sorted

Time to shout out loud and proud about what we do and how passionate we are about equine cooling and thermoregulation ☀️💦🧊☀️

🐴 Equine welfare is EVERYTHING to us 🐴

With soaring temperatures already experienced by almost the whole country this week everyone has had to think about how to keep their horses and ponies (and dogs/people and everyone else too) cool and comfortable as the temperature has risen to near 30 degrees 🥵

How have you dealt with keeping your equines cool? How have you planned for the upcoming competition this weekend and have you planned how you’re going to work around competing in soaring temperatures, possibly lack of shade 🌳 or lack or water resources for sufficient cooling post competition? Do you know how much water 💦 and/or ice 🧊 you require to cool your horse completely after competition? Heat stoke is a REAL danger, and can be fatal ☠️

The Ice Queens have all of this covered, this is our passion, this is what we do and why we want to share our knowledge and help support all of our equines 🫶

We are there to support, manage, oversee or advise event directors. The Ice Queens offer a full range of corporate packages for national, European and International events through to regional and local events. Please take a look at our website: www.theicequeens.co.uk for further information. Follow us The Ice Queens

We very much look forward to seeing you all out and about, enjoying the warm sunshine, keeping cool and keeping your equines cool too 💦🧊
