“We are very excited to have Four Sixes Equine Supplements as an event partner for the first time this year. The Four Sixes Ranch has decades of experience and knowledge raising athletic working Quarter Horses. Legendary Quarter Horses and superior Angus cattle are the hallmark of this heritage ranch with that comes the experience from multiple generations keeping their program at the forefront of the western industry. This is a natural fit,” said Amanda Brumley, Vice President and Producer of The Run For A Million.

Four Sixes Equine Supplements were developed to fuel the Ranch’s own remuda of working, breeding, and show horses. The product line includes formulations for equine joint health, complete gastrointestinal support, a carefully-balanced multi-vitamin/mineral supplement, a daily electrolyte powder, and an electrolyte paste for additional replenishment on-the-go. These nutritional formulas were meticulously designed by and for the Four Sixes Ranch, in collaboration with some of the world’s leading equine veterinarians and nutritionists. The ranch-inspired supplements are made with the highest quality ingredients and based upon peer-reviewed research, ensuring optimal nutrition for the hardest working horses, both on the ranch and in the performance arena.

“The ranch has a century-long legacy of raising, training, and caring for some of the world’s best Quarter Horses,” said Dr. Nathan Canaday, Four Sixes Ranch Veterinarian & Horse Division Manager. “The Four Sixes Equine Supplements line reflects the ranch’s ongoing commitment to promoting equine health through premium nutrition. These research based formulas are at the core of a horses’ daily nutritional needs and we’re proud to share our practical experience and knowledge with the industry.” 

“Developing this product line with the Four Sixes Ranch was born out of a mutual commitment to premium nutrition, optimizing equine performance, and the Sixes’ long legacy of being a leader in horse care,” adds Dr. Rob Franklin, Internal Medicine Specialist, Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Four Sixes Equine Supplements, and Past President of the American Association of Equine Practitioners. “Teaming up with The Run For A Million offers the perfect opportunity to engage with leaders in the western performance world and to provide education around the critical role nutrition plays in helping these elite equine athletes to perform at their best and recover effectively.”
