Absorbine® takes pride in its global
presence, providing quality horse care products to 40 countries around the
world. This tradition of international excellence has long been present in
Great Britain, and now Absorbine is pleased to announce its official sponsorship
of British dressage rider Charlotte Dujardin. Charlotte was a European Champion
in 2013, and was a double gold medalist at the London 2012 Olympics Games. As
the Federation Equestre Internationale (FEI) top-ranked dressage rider in the
world, she is now taking her accomplishments to the World Equestrian Games
(WEG) in Normandy, where Absorbine will be standing right behind her.
At just 29 years of age, Charlotte has experienced
outstanding success in partnership with Valegro, a Dutch Warmblood gelding. The
pair currently holds the world record in all three elements of dressage: the
freestyle; Grand Prix; and Grand Prix Special. They secured gold medals in both
the team and individual events at the 2012 Olympics and were European Champions
in 2013. The upcoming World Equestrian Games in Normandy will be Charlotte’s
first time competing at WEG, where she will be leading Great Britain’s dressage
team.
Absorbine recognizes Charlotte as an ideal ambassador
for its worldwide products and presence, and celebrates the opportunity to
sponsor her. “We have followed Miss Dujardin’s international success since the
London Olympics, and have been very impressed with her routinely elegant
performances and unprecedented achievements,” says Chris Jacobi, General Manager,
Equine Division at Absorbine. “We are pleased to support her continued success.
Even more than her accomplishments, it is her determination, ambition, and
unconditional love for a horse that we truly admire.”
Charlotte is a passionate advocate of Absorbine
products, and is grateful for the brand’s support. “I am thrilled at this new
partnership with Absorbine. I am a strong believer in their products, and it
means a lot to have a trusted brand standing behind me as I head to the World
Equestrian Games,” says Charlotte. “The best rides start with a horse that
looks and feels his best, and Absorbine products help me achieve that.”
The World Equestrian Games kick off on August 23 in
Normandy, with dressage competition taking place August 25 - 29. Absorbine is
pleased to support Charlotte Dujardin throughout this prestigious international
event, and wishes her the best of luck.
