Thriving On Shape-Up™
Finding the balance between weight management, workload and temperament can be tricky, especially when you have a good doer.
Area feed adviser Sarah Rushby suggested feeding Faluna, a 15-year-old grade A Showjumper on SHAPE-UP™ to ensure that she was getting all the nutrients that she required on a daily basis as well as quality proteins to support topline and muscle development. Faluna is regularly competing with Charley Hamilton and looks fantastic.
"It gives her enough energy without any more weight and she has lost all of her fat pockets. She is thriving on SHAPE-UP™ and her performance has improved"
SHAPE-UP™ is a low starch, low sugar, high fibre mix designed to provide a balanced diet at low intake levels and to help maintain a normal, healthy metabolism. This whole cereal free ration has been designed to give a minimal glycaemic response post-feeding when fed in small quantities, and the low feeding rate makes it ideal for good-doers, as well as horses that may be prone to excitable or anxious behaviours.
Based on "Super-Fibre" technology, the energy provided is in a slow-release manner, which helps to optimise stamina and maintain a calm and trainable temperament. Being in the form of a mix, SHAPE-UP™ provides a higher level of slow-release energy when compared to traditional pelleted balancers through the fibre and oil sources that are used within the formulation.
Shape-Up contains an original acid neutralizing ingredient (Acid Buf) and MOS which helps to maintain a healthy digestive system, ideal for horses that may be on restricted forage rations as well as those that are regularly travelling and in higher workloads.
