Speak with the experts, email Dodson & Horrell, Spillers etc. They have dediucated nutritionists who wil;l give you an individual answer to any question you give them. They get back to youi pretty quickly aswell

What is he being fed at the moment? Is he on good grazing or about to be moved onto it?

Gosh, doesn't he look tremendous now.

I think he looks just right - but if you think he needs something extra - why not just pony cubes.

I am in the process of gettng a 17hh TBXHan fit and she gets a scoop of pony cubes, chaff, and some oil once a day after work.

Once we start upping what she's doing (walk and some trot at present) I will swap her on to Spillers slow release cubes.
