Please help! Feeding Advice...

What would you feed , hard feed wise to:

13.1 welsh B, worked 6 times a week, out for 6 hours a day, and in the rest of the time with an excess of hay.Blancket Clipped late october and in a MW turnout and stable rugs. Pretty poor condition. Weak but improved neck, ribs clearly visable, poor back end, with hips easily felt. Very sharp, but easily contolled so condition gain is more important.

He has always been slim, even in the world championship pictures you can see his ribs , but now it is too far just to leave it.

The best way I find to get weight on is to feed AlfaBeet, oil and micronised barley - but as your boy is sharp that might not suit him.

You could try feeding AlfaBeet plus oil without adding the barley, or you could use Bailey's Outshine instead of the oil.
