Elitloppet 2012 Solvalla, Stockholm (Sweden)

Elitloppet 2012 @ Solvalla, Stockholm (Sweden) is one of the largest harness racing events in the world. 

It's a sunny Sunday at Solvalla, Sweden, where around 30,000 harness racing fans are present to watch the Elitlopp with North American representatives Arch Madness with Brian Sears and Windsong Geant with Rick Zeron.

On Saturday (May 26) Brian Sears got to feel the Scandinavian way of driving as he had one drive behind the Finnish trotter Target Hoss. Sears had problems in adapting to the starting procedure and caused a recall, which prompted a fine of $275. In the race, Target Hoss finished unplaced.
On Sunday morning Brian Sears took part in a show race over 150 yards. The race, Boko Stable Speed Races, had three eliminations, where Sears won the first driving Calgary Sign, but was outpaced in the final by Victory Hill, driven by Jorma Kontio.
On Saturday three tickets each won $3 million in the popular V75 bet; all three tickets were issued in South Africa.
Saturday's main event, the Sweden Cup, was won by the Danish trotter Neo Holmsminde, driven by Thomas Uhrberg. Neo Holmsminde is trained by Danish champion trainer Steen Juul, who at present is sidelined due to a hip operation.
Another trotter from the Juul stable, Classic Grand Cru, will race in the Elitlopp Sunday afternoon with Bjorn Goop in the bike.

Idyllic Defeats See You At Peelers

Swedish Horse Power "GASTROMIN" Feed has proven to be a real success story for Idyllic

Laying her perfect 22-race win streak on the line in the $193,150 Nadia Lobell from the outside post position amidst of field of nine three-year-old pacing fillies, See You At Peelers was defeated by Idyllic in a shocker at The Meadows on Monday afternoon.

Heavy 1-5 favourite See You At Peelers and driver Marcus Johansson blasted to command off the gate and carved out brisk fractions of :26.1, :53.1 and 1:21.1 with Idyllic and David Miller advancing first up from fifth. The daughter of American Ideal-Magical Dreamer, who was within reach of 'Peelers' around the final turn, soared past the tiring pacesetter in the stretch to score the 1:50 track record triumph. Myluvmylife (Brian Sears) finished second off a pocket trip and Swinging Beauty (Doug McNair) was third.

See You At Peelers finished sixth in her first ever career loss.

"She raced unbelievably good," said Miller of his filly. "Last week [in the Valley Forge at Harrah's Chester] I got away third and made the same move and she wasn't wasn't there. My filly was much better today. With [See You At Peelers starting from] the outside post and [trainer Ron] Burke had three of them in there I wasn't sure what was going to happen, but I didn't think it would be easy."

Idyllic, Canada's 2010 Two-Year-Old Pacing Filly of the Year, has hit the board in all eight of her prior starts this season while chasing after See You At Peelers.

"It's our turn. That's an amazing horse and to beat her is an amazing thing," continued Miller. "She's been right there with 'Peelers' every week. I was surprised that she beat her and I was really surprised with the way she did it."

Idyllic paid $12 to win for the 5-1 upset. Casie Coleman trains the millionairess for the West Wins Stable of Cambridge, Ont., Michael La Cova and Joseph Lacova of West Islip, New York, and John Campagnuolo of Loxahatchee, Florida.

Ligamin (part 2)

The Hoof

The hoof is stable, elastic and very resistant andfor the horse, an important tactile organ.

Three layers of horn, the toplayer, the ground border of thewall and the insensitive laminaeform the hoof.

These three layers are intimately connected andform a unit, ”the wall”. Inside the horn the hoofmeat is contained. The corium produces or secreteskeratin and forms the horn.

The hoofs have a rich blood circulation and inthe deeper parts of the hoof the pedal and navicularbones are located.

The deep digital flexor tendon is attached to thelower side of the pedal bone. The navicularbursa lies between the navicular bone and thedeep digital flexor tendon.

The bottom of the hoof consists of the sole andfrog. The sole is concave towardsthe frog and is made of softerhorn than the wall of the hoof.

The frog consists more of elastickeratin than the sole or wall of thehoof does.

The mechanism of the hoof is themotion generated in the hoofwhile exposed to pressure or concussion.

Functional irregularities

Decreased blood circulation in the muscles ofthe shoulders and hindquarters affectjahablood circulation all the way down into thehoof.

If there is bad circulation inthe hoof they will be dryfrom the inside. It will be abase for cracks.Through the extreme pressurethe hoof is exposed to,during trotting or galloping,the position of the hoofmust be correct.

When allowed to grow too long, the hoof islikely to receive a hoofcrack. A hoof crack is notnormal; it is the result ofneglect.

Laminitis hoof is a commonexpression for anovergrown hoof. This iswhy it receives so called laminitis-ringsthough these can also appear on a badlytrimmed hoof. Fodder poisoning can causelaminitis and if the horse is given very coldwater it can cause laminitis.

Ligamin (part 1)

Ligamin or PC #4 for the Hoof, Skeleton and Muscle System

LIGAMIN - FOR MUSCLE, JOINTS AND HOOFS

We have, based on our experiences, chosen to add micro doses of the active ingredients in the different products. Micro doses have proven to be a powerful and efficient way to
supply the organism with nutrient substrates.

This is how the body functions.

The Skeleton and Joints.
The locomotors system consists of the striated muscle, skeleton and the junctions of skeletal like joints and tendons. The skeleton is held together by bands and ligaments and they form attachments and levers for the muscles.

The skeleton of a mature horse consist of 205 bones and some cartilage. The function of the skeleton is both supportive and a supplier of calcium and phosphate. Some of the bone and bone marrow produces red and
white blood cells.

The Muscles
The skeletal muscles are the horse’s energy source. Nutrients, from metabolism, are carried to the muscles via the blood circulation, and the muscles make the fuel that supplies the energy. A horse’s skeletal muscles are very well developed and specially evolved for rapid movement. The connective tissue has an extensive blood circulation. The capillaries (the smallest blood vessels) form a very close net in the connective tissue. The majority of the muscle fibers are situated close to a capillary.

PRO-COMBO #1 - A POWERFUL CATALYST
We have, based on our experiences, chosen to add micro doses of the active ingredients in the different products. Micro doses have proven to be a powerful and efficient way to supply the
organism with nutrient substrates.

Vitamin and Mineral
The body needs minerals to continue functioning. Vitamins, enzymes, hormones and proteins are among the groups that depend on minerals for continued efficiency in the body. Minerals interact with proteins in order to built up and repair the cells. The chemical mechanism of cells obtain their energy by using binding energy and the positive and negative charges from the various nutrients. When producing the products we have utilized this natural energy. The electromagnetic pattern is one of the major principles that make Pro-Combo #1 an invaluable catalyst for the assimilation of nutrients. The assimilation of nutrients contained in the
fodder improves significantly when Pro-Combo #1 is added as a feed supplement.

Lactose as the carrier massLactose is an energy supplying carbohydrate which is favorable for the blood glucose. The blood glucose level is determined by the carbohydrate type. Lactose is a disaccharide (di = 2) which is
transformed in to glucose and galactose.These two types of saccarids are competing of being utilized of the blood which slows down the process of hyper glycaemia. Lactose will promote a steady blood glucose level. Galactose is important for the brain. Glucose is transformed in to glycogen and thereafter stored as  energy in the liver and muscles. Lactose  will also promote a healthy intestinal flora of the hind gut.

Pro-Combo #1
Pro-Combo #1 is an Extra Strength Performance and Endurance Enhancement formula. A combination of Minesyl, Ferromin, Macromin and Vitomin-E is recommended when your horse is lacking that ”second wind” necessary to cross the finishing line with a winning time. This highly praised combination builds stamina, increases endurance; improving the overall physical performance. The nutrients in Pro-Combo #1 has a nutritional balancing function. In will balance the horse’s pH level and electrolytes. Pro-Combo #1 will significantly prolong the lifespan of the red blood cells and increase the oxygen transportation from the lungs to the muscles. The blood values improve rapidly after treatment has started.  Pro-Combo #1 also promote more rhythmic and well coordinated movements by transmitting normal impulses from nerves to muscles.
Minesyl and PC #1 is the foundation for fast healing In order to quickly heal an injury or other illness, the body needs particular cell nutrition that expedites the healing process and that is the reason we always recommend Minesyl and PC #1 in combination with any other product. 

Pro-Combo is the foundation for fast healing. In order to quickly heal an injury or other illness, the body needs particular cell nutrition that expedites the healing process. It strengthens the immune defense system. Pro-Combo #1 also strengthens the immune defense system after a vaccination.

Daily Used Pro-Combo #1 may be used as an every day nutritional supplement, without harmful side effects or fear for overdoses.

Arch Madness set a track and world record

Arch Madness improved his seasonal earnings to $471,910 for owners Marc Goldberg and Barry Goldstein's Willow Pond LLC. His

career total is now $2.9 million.

Arch Madness set a track and world record for an older trotting gelding with a 1:50.2 clocking in the
$220,750 Titan Cup on Saturday night at Meadowlands Racetrack.
Arch Madness cleared the lead from Lucky Jim after a :55.1 half and drew off to an eight-length victory.
He supplanted Victory Tilly's 2002 record (for geldings five years old and up) in the Nat Ray by two-fifths
of a second. Lucky Jim was far behind in second, while Slave Dream picked up the show money.
Driven by Brian Sears, Arch Madness earned his first Titan Cup trophy in his fourth attempt. He paid
$2.60.
"We were stepping out of there and it looked like they were going to mix it up early," Sears said. "I let it
play out and it worked out well. He's super sharp; they've done a great job with him."
Arch Madness, trained by Trond Smedshammer, is now two-for-two since returning from a short
campaign in Europe. The seven-year-old gelding has won seven of eight starts in 2011, including the
Oslo Grand Prix. His only loss this year came in Sweden's Elitlopp. He won his elimination race before
finishing sixth in the same-day final on May 29 at Solvalla.
"He is starting to live up to what we thought he could do," Smedshammer said. "He has had some
bumps along the road. He always showed greatness, but he wasn't always the most consistent horse.
This is the horse we thought he would be as an aged horse. I thought he would show it as a five-year-
old. He didn't have a great year then, but this is certainly his year now."
