Not something I do very often but on Saturday I took my friend’s horse Dolly to her first ever dressage test picking up a very respectable 69.3% taking 2nd place. So incredibly proud of her 🥹❤️

Most horses and ponies are coming in for the winter now but for the sake of their physical and mental health they should get some daily turnout or exercise when conditions permit.

When choosing what hard feed to provide over winter you firstly need to consider the condition of your horse and as many details as possible about the hay or haylage you are going to feed.

If your horse needs more condition in the form of muscle or topline; or is going to be working consistently then you need the look at the ‘PROTEIN’ declaration on the white label or feed sack itself.

Protein will provide the building blocks for muscle development when a horse is exercised in the correct outline. Protein also aids good bone development and re-modelling. Also, protein forms the bulk of over 4,000 enzymes and all the hormones that ‘run’ the horses metabolism. Therefore good quality protein, high in essential amino acids*, is literally essential for a healthy horse. Good sources to look for at the top of the list of INGREDIENTS in the COMPOSITION on the white label are Soya, followed by Linseed.

It is cost-effective to base your horse’s feed on a Top-Specification conditioning Feed Balancer such as those in the photo.

Remember to consider the amount of protein you feed, not just the percentage. For example 500g of a 25% TopSpec Feed Balancer will provide 125g of protein/horse/day. Equally 1kg of a 12.5% working horse cube will provide 125g of protein but it will provide approximately twice the number of calories (which can be used for maintenance and providing energy for work or fat); in addition, the quality of the protein will be much poorer (lower in essential amino acids) so it will be much less beneficial.

Other factors and scenarios will be examined over the coming weeks.

*‘Essential’ amino acids have to be provided in the horse’s diet as he cannot manufacture them himself. They are very important. ‘Non-essential’ amino acids can be manufactured by the horse and make up a high proportion of poor quality protein sources.
