the coveted BC Award. The Rider also states that a certain
named vet is endorsing this product.

...or maybe, after 8 tries the horse just got into better shape.  Or, with high vet score, maybe the rider just weighed more that day than the other riders, went a little faster (or others went slower) and the pulses could have been lower because the rides she mentioned were in November and February when it's cooler.  Maybe the other horses were not BC material that day.  In reality, the APF probably had nothing to do with it.  The horse is doing well because it is a good horse and is getting more fit and experienced.  Horses just don't go out and start winning rides and getting BC because of any supplement.
