Does anyone actually use and pay for this yearly? Do you find it helps? I'm a mostly showing stable and any mares who I've decided against breeding, I show. I'm currently paying for cycle suppressant for them but is it worth the ebs every year?

This may be just me, but I would say no.

I've found that my mares get quite a few blue ribbons without CS, I never use it.

Unless I had an amazing show mare who was an awful breeder, I would find it a waste of ebs.

But that's just me. <3

I use it for mares that don't have very good ratings or that are pretty but wouldnt help me breeding wise.

I'd say it's helpful. Mare's don't go in the heat therefore they train faster therefore level faster therefore earn you more ebs. Usually they pay for the CS fee within the first showing week
