"The Up-Right® Assistant™ Anti-Cast Safety Strips proved themselves within the first five minutes of the yearlings being in!

I am very happy with them, they are just fantastic."

"We had the Up-Right® Anti-Cast Safety Strips installed into a number of our boxes at the farm.

We had a horse that was getting cast at least twice a week, but since the installment, no problems.

We now have peace of mind."

"We installed the Up-Right® Anti-Cast Safety Strips in the boxes at the 'horses in training' farm in the summer of 2008.

Since, we have experienced horses being cast, but with the assistance of the Strips in place they were all able to get back to their feet unaided and uninjured in any way.

We have no problem recommending the Up-Right® Anti-Cast Safety Strip Technology to anyone in the business."

"We put the Up-Right® Anti-Cast Safety Strips in recently, and have had horses cast since, and they all got back up unaided.  Great job!"

"I had been searching for a product to overcome the problem of horses, and especially young horses becoming cast in their boxes. I thought there had to be something out there.

I came across an advertisement for Up-Right Anti-Cast Safety Strips and discovered that this was a brand new concept and was available for the first time in Australia.

We installed the Assistant Strips in our yearling preparation stalls and are very happy with the protection they provide. A new idea, and like all good ideas, simple, practical and effective."

"Earlier this year we had Kerry Jordan from Horsefabulous fit their Up-Right® Max Anti-Cast Safety Strips to our new stables.

Over the years, we have seen far too many stallions, racehorses, yearlings, weanlings and broodmares injured, some irreparably from being cast in their stables.

When weighing up the cost benefit of having these safety strips installed, it was simply a no-brainer for Rachael and myself."

"We followed the lead of some major studs in the UK, Ireland and the USA and installed Up-Right® Max Anti-Cast Safety Strips into our stallion boxes to protect our most valuable of assets.

I believe we were the first to do so in the Southern Hemisphere. I must say I am sleeping much better at night!'

"I don't know anyone involved with horses that hasn't had to experience at least once the anguish and despair when coming to terms with a horse injured in their stall.

When Kerry explained the technology, it just made sense to me. There is just nothing out there like it.

Now our silent stall sentries are always on guard, which of course is of great comfort, especially at night when horses are unattended and at an even greater risk."

"Solves a problem, eliminates a risk. Thats exactly what responsible horse management demands. I have witnessed the Strips in action, and man, do they work or what!"

Chris has been a leading advocate of our Up-Right® Anti-Cast Safety Strip technology ever since his involvement in the earliest trials of the product conducted in Australia.

When asked about the value of having the Up-Right® Anti-Cast Safety Strips installed Chris stated, "Well, what price peace of mind. It really is a silver bullet safety solution, an absolute no-brainer as far as I'm concerned."
