Any suggestions guys?

Logic, 8 year old Clydlesdale x cob, schooled for an hour per session 2-3 times per week, a 90 min hack and a 2-3 hour hack on a Sunday - so medium workload? Was previously a poor doer, never kept weight on was fed alpha A, sugarbeet, conditioning cubes, oats and oil.

She finally gained weight! :)

So, she doesn't really need any feed during the summer now but I like to give a token feed after work. At the moment she's just getting a couple of handfuls of Alpha A mixed with water with a few carrots but will need to buy a new bag of Alpha A in a couple of weeks.

Is there anything more suitable I should be giving her now that she doesn't actually need it?

Thanks

Or you could try Alfa-a lite if you still what that extra energy?

Alfa A lite for summer and Alfa Oil for winter. Great stuff if horse doesnt get fizzy on alfa. might want to add a balancer if feed and coat etc start looking poor, esp in winter. Or beet.
