The body (230)has a through bore (236) engaging the cap (22) of the bottle (26) when used to carry the bottle (26) or when used to facilitate turning the cap (22) of the bottle (26). The arm (234) extends arcuately outwardly from the body (230) to a terminal end (232), and carries the bottle (26) when used to carry the bottle (26) or facilitate turning the cap (22) of the bottle (26) when used to facilitate turning the cap (22) of the bottle (26). The fingers (234) extend laterally outwardly from the terminal end (238) of the arm(232), from a longitudinal axis (240) of lateral symmetry of the arm (232), and engage the shoulder (24) of the bottle (26) in such a manner so as to better distribute the carrying load so as to avoid puncturing the shoulder (24) of the bottle (26) when used to carry the bottle (26).
