Saracen Horse Feeds are proudly celebrating an exclusive 20-year partnership with Kentucky Equine Research, World Leaders in Equine Research and Nutrition.

Providing a balanced diet or feeding a balancer that contains a healthy hoof package will ensure that the hooves are provided with all the essential nutrients that they require to grow.

During intense exercise, horses can lose up to 12 litres of sweat per hour, approximately 4% of their total body water.

Obesity remains prevalent in the UK leisure sector of horses and ponies and is now also commonly found in the sports and elite horse sectors. It is of great concern to all equine communities from both veterinary and welfare points of view.

We work closely with other experts in nutrition, research, and veterinary science in order to provide our clients research-proven products to help manage and support horses with EGUS.

Modern management often limits natural foraging, increases stress (training, early weaning), and uses high-starch diets with too little forage and fibre.

The make-up of the diet and feeding practices can have a significant impact on the digestive health of horses.

A few weeks ago at the height of Summer, our very own Lizzie Drury represented Saracen Horse Feeds at Windsor Castle to mark a milestone we’re incredibly proud of, receiving the King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade.
