Wii Show Jumping Vet Simon Woods Wins IPad From CEVA

A natural flair for Nintendo Wii has paid dividends for Simon Woods from Fyrnway Equine Clinic in Shrewsbury. The lucky equine vet has won a top of the range 3rd generation 62GB, iPad, courtesy of Ceva Animal Health. The pharmaceutical company held a challenging Wii Olympic show jumping competition at BEVA Congress last month, attracting over a hundred entries from keen Congress delegates. Simon demonstrated some fancy hand and eye coordination to perform a tidy, clear round in a time of 1:09 minutes and won by a significant margin. Ceva Animal Health produces Equidronate®, the tiludronate-based bisphosphonate infusion for the treatment of bone spavin in horses. Rumours that Simon’s winning horse had been treated with Equidronate® remain unsubstantiated.
