Cavallo Contribution Captures the Win Competitive Rider Uses Simple Hoof Boots

The BC Competitive Trail Rider’s Association held its Annual Awards ceremony on October 23, 2009. Nicole Vaugeois of Nanaimo won the Top BC Lightweight rider with her unregistered Quarter Horse El Nino.

Competitive trail riding is a long distance riding sport where horse and rider teams navigate over a variety of terrains in a set period of time. The sport is all about the horses’ fitness, conditioning and overall health.

Last year, BCCTRA approved the use of hoof boots for horses during competition. “This rule change has allowed riders more flexibility in their hoof care options during competition” states Vaugeois. It is not uncommon now to see horse and rider teams using Cavallo boots on the rides for primary hoof care or as a back up to a pulled shoe.

“The products and contributions that Cavallo makes to the horse world are in line with the values of BCCTRA, and we are very appreciative of their support for our sport” said Vaugeois.

“I am a huge fan of the Simple Boots that Cavallo Horse & Rider makes” says Nicole. She has used Cavallo boots on her horses for many years and relies on them for competition. During 2009, Vaugeois credits them for helping her win the Lightweight title.
