Your horse may need additional nutritional support, especially at a time when we are still waiting for the spring grass to arrive and the cooler temperatures mean no grass growth.

This makes them an ideal Target Feed for training sessions and competition days, providing a top up of additional slow-release energy exactly when it is required. 📸 Georgie Wood making of natural facilities out hacking for 5th leg training with event horse Hudson.
