PREMIER Performance, the British equine nutrition company, which opened their first Irish branch in Newbridge last October, is to sponsor this year’s Association of Irish Riding Clubs’ RDS team show jumping championship qualifiers.

As usual, the winning team will go forward to the Dublin Horse Show from the eight regional qualifiers, which are all scheduled to take place in May. The runners-up in each will then have a second chance to claim a golden ticket when contesting the wildcard qualifier at the AIRC Riding Clubs’ Festival in Mullingar Equestrian early the following month.

Louise Duffy, Chairperson of the AIRC, said: “I’m very pleased to announce that Premier Performance will be supporting the AIRC RDS team show jumping qualifiers this year. They are an exciting new brand and we look forward to the partnership.”

In reply, Zoe Grogan, sales manager at Premier Performance, commented: “We are delighted to come on board and support the AIRC team show jumping qualifiers. We look forward to continuing our relationship with them in the future.”

Premier Performance, which is offering AIRC members a 20% discount for their shop in Newbridge, is originally home of The Calming Cookies and now has developed into 46 other supplements. All of their products contain natural ingredients of the highest quality. With the use of Nitric Oxide Pathway technology, their proprietary blends focus on protein, vitamins, amino acids, herbs and mineral supplements.
