I didnt get a chance to give a full post to our new sponsor Mallard Creek during the event so I wanted to share it with everyone now. I carry their shavings at my store and their customer service and products are top notch. They are a family owned business and treat their customers like family. Give them a try.

We are thrilled to announce that Mallard Creek is an official sponsor of the Back 2 Basics Quarter Horse Show & NRCHA Dirt & Diamonds Derby!

Heading to Murieta Equestrian Center from January 28 – February 1? We’ve got you covered. As a leader in premium equine bedding, Mallard Creek is proud to support the West Coast horse community. Whether you're sliding to a stop in reining, or showing in halter, our softwood shavings and MegaZorb Bedding Pellets ensure your champion gets the rest they deserve!

Good luck to all athletes! See you in Rancho Murieta!o
