How to Use
- Tie your horse up safely and start with the hoof pick, working from heel to toe in each foot.
- Use the curry comb in small circles over the muscled areas of the body to lift dried mud, dust and loose hair.
- Follow with the dandy brush in short flicking strokes to sweep the raised dirt away.
- Use the body brush in long strokes along the coat, cleaning the bristles on the curry comb every few strokes.
- Work through the mane and tail with the mane comb, holding the hair to avoid pulling.
- Dampen the sponge for the face, dock and any muddy patches, then use the sweat scraper to remove excess water after washing down.
- Rinse the brushes and sponge, dry them fully and return them to the box.

FAQ
What is included in the Equi-Sential Starter Grooming Box?
The box contains seven items: a body brush, dandy brush, mane comb, hoof pick, heart-shaped curry comb, sweat scraper and horse-shaped sponge, all housed in a plastic box with a clear hinged lid.
Is this grooming kit suitable for children?
Yes. The box is made from light plastic and has a handle on the lid, so it is easy for young riders to carry. It is a popular first grooming kit and gift for children who are learning to look after a pony.
Will the brushes suit a pony as well as a full-size horse?
Yes. The tools are standard grooming sizes and work across ponies, cobs and larger horses, so the same kit can stay with a rider as they move up from a first pony.
How do I keep the grooming kit clean?
Rinse the brushes and sponge in clean water after use, shake out the excess and let them dry fully before putting them back in the box. Wipe the box out from time to time to remove hair, dust and bedding.
Does the box keep small items from getting lost?
Yes. There is a removeable compartment inside for small items such as the hoof pick and mane comb, and the lid latches closed so nothing falls out while you carry it.
