Equine Register and Shearwater Insurance.

We were thrilled to hear the news regarding the new partnership between Equine Register and Shearwater Insurance. 
Equine Register is the leading provider of equine identification, traceability, biosecurity and registration services for governments and industry. The company delivers and manages the Central Equine Database for the Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) which holds over 1.2 million records of the UK’s passported horses and ponies. The affliction with Shearwater comes as Equine Register sees relevant, appropriately priced insurance as key to underpinning animal welfare.

This is an exciting new beginning bringing two industry leaders together in a bid to further promote and underpin best practice horse ownership and welfare.
In the coming weeks there will be further announcements regarding Equine Register and Digital Stable.

The Magic Millions Festival of British Eventing

We are looking forward to seeing you all in the Owners/EHOA hospitality marquee at The Magic Millions Festival of British Eventing at Gatcombe.

We have moved to a new location, we are now positioned to the area left of the Commentary box on the Main Arena backing on to the collecting ring.

This change makes it more convenient to pop out and watch your horse warm up for SJ and also makes the Owners more accessible for prize giving, should you be lucky enough to feature.   

The marquee will be open from 9am on Friday and Sunday and 8am on Saturday as the show jumping is starting early.

See you soon
