Saracen feeds for a Thoroughbred?

[Girlracer]

Just wondering if anyone can help. Have heard great things re Saracen horse feeds and am looking to try it with my TB when he returns next weekend.

Have found a local stockist but now just need to work out exactly what I should be feeding - there is such a huge selection.

Do any of you use it, and if so how have you found it?

Ones I looked at had rather a high starch content.

Might be better if you can tell us what you want to feed for, the nature of the horse, and the type of work he is in?

Ask Saracen via their feed line, they are mega helpful and will send samples if needed

I started feeding Saracen to my TB last year and I am still amazed at the results. I have never been able to cover her ribs without making her fat, or keep a good weight and condition both at the same time but this stuff has done absolute wonders! And it is really well priced.

She is a 16.2hh, barefoot, 16yo TB in light/med work and I feed her the Saracen Veteran mix. She is only on half of the recommended amount (1kg per day over 2 feeds) as she is quite a good doer and since coming in for winter I have just started her on 250g a day over 2 feeds of the essential balancer to level out her nutrients. She looks, great, feels great and I couldn't be happier with it!

They are really very helpful too if you email or call them
