(August 26, 2010) – Isn’t He Just Magical managed to outshine all of the other Shetland Ponies at the 2010 American Shetland Pony Congress Show in Ardmore, Oklahoma, when he won the Vetrolin Grooming Award, sponsored by Farnam. Winning the title of “Best Groomed” pony at the show earned Isn’t He Just Magical and his owner, Gail Ray of Silver Meadows Training Center in Anthony, Florida, a year’s supply of Vetrolin Grooming Products provided by Farnam. “We had a great show at Congress and winning ‘Best Groomed’ Pony made it even better. We were really excited and honored,” Ray said. “Cara Brykett, who is 16 years old, showed Isn’t He Just Magical for us. He is a two-year-old pony that we bought last year. Our grooming secrets at the show were really simple as we just washed him and added a little hair gel.” Isn’t He Just Magical will now receive a great deal more than just a little hair gel, thanks to winning a year’s supply of Vetrolin products. “We do use Vetrolin products and really like them,” Ray said. “I am excited to think that I will now have all of their products.” WHIA Conference Update
