Pre feed I could make wetter for sure, and post competing feed for that matter.

Guess I was feeling guilty as it was a long’ish journey, 3 hours, competing all day and then 3 hours home before she had a proper drink again...

I'm the same, but really if we offer them a drink we cant force them to drink it. I'd never dream of not taking water or not offering it, but there is only so much we can do

This is my quandary as she will drink lots if it has the recovery mash in ??, so I ‘could’ get her to drink at the competition but using a sugary mash...

I'd maybe use a bit of that for no more than half a bucket, but otherwise I'd just offer water
