Quiessence worked very good in the past for me.

It is a magnesiumm supplement.

Quietex has valerian root in it as do these products that you may want to try:

Equine Relax Blend
Confidence Plus
Confidence Plus Gold
Easy Mare


FYI: Valerian root is listed as a banned substance. If you perform at rated shows and you are at risk of being tested, stop feeding valerian root at least 3-5 days before your show date.

I didnt know you had Rebel on a calming supplement! Wow! I hope you find a solution that works for you! Good Luck! (Calm and Cool might work - it didnt for Miss Majic, made her a loon. But other people say they like it!)

Budweiser beer works for horses that don't sweat, but never tried it for calming a horse.
