Controllable extra energy in some supplement form?

[TiaPony]

Tia is rather forward going but it just doesn't seem to last long! She is not stupid or idiotic with her 'forwardgoingness', for the first 20-25mins of our lessons she is really responsive then suddenly droops and tosses her head up in tiredness. I cannot change her feed completely as our yard only has 3 feed types in use at the moment : D&h pasture mix, baileys conditioning cubes (no.1) and alfa a. She is currently fed a large scoop of D&h pasture mix and alfa a. She is very fit, and i do not want any more weight on her hence not using conditioning cubes, but i was wondering whether there was a supplement/oil of some sort that would give her a little bit more 'ooomph'. Also, is a garlic supplement good to detract the flies?
Thanks

I suppose that could be true if she wasn't ridden 6 days a week intensivly

I jus don't think she has the energy to do her work?

what about red cell

 

[MagicMelon]

I agree with Red Cell - I believe its high in iron and B vitamins which can help if they're lacking. Otherwise, what about adding soya oil? Gives slow release energy.

 

[WelshRareBit]

I use D&H soya oil.

It doesnt make him go mad but its slow release energy which I think is more useful in my case! It also makes his coat look gorgeous!

Red Cell really helps my teenage showjumper when he needs extra oommph. Tried Propell too but he wouldnt touch it!
