That takes it to 11.5% oil and 12.5 MJ\/kg — Baileys reckon it carries an energy content equivalent to some conditioning and competition feeds, but delivers it as fibre and oil rather than as cereal starch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no molasses and no straw in it: the bag holds two ingredients. Starch sits at 3% and sugar at 2.5%, which is why Baileys name horses prone to laminitis or to tying-up among those it suits.
