Equnity Sportshorses x Blue Hors collaboration

In addition to being the rider of Centano, Anniken is the owner of Equnity Sportshorses, through which she has a collaboration with Blue Hors. Through this collaboration, she has had a couple of Blue Hors horses, including the Blue Hors Zack son Zazou Pilekær, in training with a sale in mind. She has also been involved in arranging the sale of the gelding Leandor B by Governor / Rousseau.

The Berg Fredriksen family, who are the new owners of Zazou Pilekær (Blue Hors Zack / Dream of Glory, breeder Anne Mette Rossen and Lars Langendorff) told Anniken how they felt completely safe throughout the sales process and also told her how much they appreciated the openness and approach to the sale.

 

Happy Norwegian champions

Blue Hors CARE products in Norway

At the same time as she mediates contact between Norwegian customers and Blue Hors’ sales horses, Anniken is also a Norwegian distributor of the Blue Hors CARE products.

We asked Anniken what products were her favorites, a question she grinningly answered was impossible to answer because she had so many favorites.

“On a daily basis, Super Shine and After Work Shampoo are absolutely fantastic! Easy, convenient and effective!”

In competition situations, Hoof Shine is totally indispensable. It is a product that makes the hooves incredibly beautiful in a simple way! I live for the consistent functionality that is thought into the products! It works and it’s easy, especially when you have several horses with you and everything has to go fast!

I really appreciate having the products in the stable – and the fact that everyone has been thought, e.g. in a product like B-Express Zero, which is sugar-free and therefore suitable for some of the horses that may be overlooked from time to time “
