Every strong ride starts long before the first trot circle. Pre‑ride prep is where performance is built—and adding liniment to your warm‑up routine can make your horse softer, looser, and more prepared from the start.
Before tightening the girth, apply a light layer of Draw It Out® High Potency Gel (16 oz) along key muscle groups and the lower legs. This encourages early blood flow and makes the first few minutes of your ride feel smoother.
Horses—just like athletes—can come out of the stall tight, especially in cooler months or after a rest day. Liniment helps ease that initial tension so the warm‑up works with your horse, not against tight tissue.
Whether you’re schooling circles, bending, body control, or collection, a more mobile topline and freer shoulders make everything easier. Pre‑ride liniment helps those tissues wake up and respond faster.
As your ride intensifies, support structures around the joints take on more stress. A show‑safe liniment like Draw It Out® helps maintain circulation and keeps those structures ready for the job.
When your warm‑up fires on all cylinders, your horse feels confident, ready, and willing. Draw It Out® helps set the tone before the first step.
