Hint: FERAMO-H, containing an oil seed meal base, with high levels of Vitamin A, iron, zinc, copper and trace minerals will promote a glossy well conditioned, richly coloured coat essential in the show ring. Note: The trace mineral chromium has been shown to improve muscle development and bulk in human athletes.

Adult horses fed at least 3kg of lucerne as chaff or hay with only small amounts of grain or bran, do not need additional calcium other than that contained in the lucerne or clover hay. However in heavily sweating horses, and those receiving cereal based rations chaff or grain or grazing on predominantly grass pastures, then additional calcium should be added to the ration.

Hint: A supplement of CAL-PLUS 30g or one scoopful daily will help to balance the ration and maintain an adequate intake of calcium and essential bone forming minerals. A combination of high doses of Vitamin B1 and magnesium, as in KARMA, will help to settle down nervy horses on higher energy grain based diets. Hint: Give 1 scoopful of KARMA in evening feed for 4 days, if the horse does not settle down adequately, give 1 scoop morning and evening for days to obtain a response, then maintain on one scoopful daily.

Although tablespoons of salt will help palatability of the ration, it is not a complete electrolyte replacer in hard working horses that are worked for more than 30 minutes each day. Supplementation with a range of essential body salts is required during hot weather, when horses are travelling over long distances, or in 'nervy' horses that 'compete before their time'. During the warmer months, when horses are travelling regularly, in horses that sweat up when worked, or those with a 'nervous' temperament, then feed 1 scoopful of HUMIDIMIX morning and evening.

Hint: Electrolytes are best added to the feed, giving half daily dose each morning and evening. On the morning of long distance travel, on arrival at the competition, and after hard workouts on a hot day, give 60mL of RECHARGE concentrate over the tongue by syringe and provide access to cool fresh water.

Fat Additional fat is a source of 'cool', 'non heating' energy, and promotes coat condition.
