Inky is doing really well at home with his training for the shows. His condition and weight is perfect. I know however that when it comes to the shows as they are often a travel he will loose his sparkle. He doesnt do well in the heat at all and im sure the journeys take it out of him.
I have posted before and had suggestions of electrolytes but im not sure having done some research whether they are what he needs. He doesnt sweat and doesnt get stressed enough to loose fluid.

I was wondering whether a dose of propell plus a few days before would help??? Either that or it has been suggested a handful of naked oats in his feed a few days prior?

Any ideas?? Cab you use propell plus like this or do you have to feed it all the time???

( He was the same last year and and bloods done and everything was normal

Propell Plus or Re Cell, which is very similar, are not really designed for one off dosage a few days before an event. They need to be given over a period of time to allow the vitamins & minerals to get into the system & start having an effect. Primarily, although it has other ingredients, it gives a boost to the iron levels as a lack of iron can cause anaemia (sp) & the horse to be a little lack lustre or tired.

I give it to one of my horses every day a he seemed a little lethargic. As to wether it works or he has just got fitter I don't really know but he goes better now.

I used propell plus on my SJ pony when he lacked a bit of extra sparkle in the summer months. we had him blood tested we were so worried about him, but just put some propell plus into his feed and he was so much better. we used it as and when he needed it, generally before shows. we didn't find it nescessary to give it to him everyday.

Hmm yes i thought so but im just a little concerned to give it him every day if his bloods are normal and he already has a vit and mineral supplement? Will possibly have to think of something else

If you need a one off energy booster, why not think about Equiform Nutrition Revive? I have seen some very good results with that
