What to Feed

[sjdress]

I am thinking of changing my horse's feed.
She is currently fed a scoop of hifi original and 1/2 ride and relax twice a day. Along with oil, garlic and a placid supplement.
However she can have quite an inconsistant temperment and althugh she is fairly lazy she can get quite anxious and go from calm to explosive in 0.1 seconds! She does however lack stamina.
So, i am thinking of changing her to a diet or AlfaA and a balancer instead of the mix.
She is a good doer but can drop off a bit in winter.
What are your thoughts?

If she lacks stamnina and can be a bit inconsistent, I would look at a high oil/low starch fibre based feed. Definitely worth trying something like Topspec and Alfa A, and you can then add oil for more slow release energy.

I have also had fantastic results with Winergy Low, and have recommended it to others who have had similar results with their horses. My mare filled out, chilled out but never "fizzed out" like she did previously. Definitely worth a try... you can then add something like speedibeet as another higher energy fibre feed for condition if she drops off

Baileys Lo-Cal was great for my TB, all the condition none of the fizz.
