white lard looking stuff on C/C legs??

Heavenly Jumper · 08-24-2005, 01:03 PM

I've always wondered what the white smeary stuff on the fronts of C/C horses legs is? Is it lard? Sweat? Drool? It seems silly to ask, but what the HECK is that stuff??

like this??

if u meen this,its called event grease. it helps the horse slide over big XC fences if it gets into a sticky situation

That's it!! Hmmmm....event grease, does it just come in a big 'ol tub??

Drool!? ROFLMAO...sorry, but that made me laugh!!!

Heavenly Jumper · 08-24-2005, 01:08 PM

I LUV BESS · 08-24-2005, 01:09 PM

They use that stuff b/c unlike stadium jumps, XC jumps don't move if hit.

I asked that question a while back, when I first saw it, I was thinking man, that must a nervous horse sweating like that right out of the box.
Then our second thought was Crisco! Which is very close!
