My 5yo ISH who I have just started to event at BE90 (well if I ever get to run again!) seems to lack a bit of sparkle, that extra buzz at comps. He performed what I felt was a hardworking test for me last week but got 22 and very good comments but I often get comments such as lacking impulsion and do think altering his feed may help.

Currently he is fed:
Dengie alfalfa chop
Topspec cool condition
Topspec cool balancer
Linseed and garlic.

He is quite a level headed type and easy going but feel he needs a bit of extra umph!

So can anyone recommend any good feeds?

Many thanks Ellie :)
 
You could try topspec turbo but introduce it very slowly! Or change your cool condition for something like spillers instant energy mix. Another option is to try adding oats which you can vary according to need...
