YORK-BASED Fulmart Feeds has announced a new sponsorship arrangement with former Olympic three-day event rider Tiny Clapham.

Ms Clapham competed in the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984 and was part of the silver medal-winning British team. Since the mid 1990s, she has focused on training the future stars of her sport.

Her first success came with the Japanese three-day event team, which came fifth in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. She has also worked with individuals who competed in Sydney and Athens.

Today she works with riders preparing for major three-day events as well as regular teaching with the Belvoir Pony Club, close to her home in Cambridgeshire.

She will be providing a monthly blog for the Fulmart Feeds, updating readers on her horse and human yard stars, as well as being an ambassador for the company’s haylage brand, Equilage. Ms Clapham said: “One of my pupils commented on how well her horse had done on Equilage, so I was keen to link up with Fulmart Feeds. “We are very lucky to have their support especially as our horses are doing really well on Equilage.
