Alltech, a global leader in animal health and nutrition, is proud to announce GAIN^® Horse Feeds as an animal health and nutrition partner for the Alltech European Championships 2009. This partnership is in addition to GAIN^®’s role as one of 25 global animal health and nutrition partners who have united with Alltech in promotion of the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games 2010™, the largest sporting event held in the United States since the 2002 Winter Olympic Games.

“We, at Alltech, are very excited to partner with GAIN^® Horse Feeds on two of the most important equestrian championships in the world,” said Dr. Pearse Lyons, president and founder of Alltech. “Set against the historic background of Windsor Castle, the Alltech European Championships represent another incredible platform for GAIN^® Horse Feeds to showcase both their brand and Ireland’s equine industry internationally.”

The Alltech European Championships will take place at Windsor Castle from August 25-30, 2009. These championships mark the first time that the European Jumping Championships and the European Dressage Championships have been held together at the same venue. The Alltech European Championships are expected to be attended by 60,000 people and will be broadcast across the United Kingdom and Europe.

The Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games, to be held in Lexington, KY, USA from September 25 - October 10, 2010, are the world championships of the eight equestrian disciplines recognized by the Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI), including the para-equestrian discipline for the first time.
