Arenus, a premier provider of innovative health and nutritional products for pets and horses, is pleased to announce they are sponsoring nine-goal polo player Julio Arellano. Considered one of the top polo players in the United States, Arellano was born in Nicaragua and moved with his family to Wellington, Florida, when he was seven years old so his father could play polo.
“Arenus is very pleased to add Julio to our sponsored rider program,” said Kristen Galvan, an Arenus Sales Specialist for the southeast. “Julio is a phenomenal player who has had incredible success in his 37 years. Julio typically plays the number three position, which is usually held by the best player on the team. Julio has a long list of accomplishments including winning the North American Polo League’s scoring title with 115 goals in 2008 and was named MVP of the US Open in 2005. His team has also won the Gold Cup, the US Open and the 20-goal Joe Barry Memorial Cup."
Arellano, who was mentored by Hall of Famer Memo Gracida, has dedicated his life to polo and to his horses. When one of his mare’s became sick last year, Galvan at Arenus recommended he use Assure® from the Assure® digestive aid line to support normal digestion.
