Saracen Shape-Up Horse Feed 20kg – Low Intake, Calorie-Controlled Mix
Saracen Shape-Up – 20kg
Shape-Up is a high-fibre feed with starch at 10% and sugar at 6.5%, designed for horses and ponies that need controlled calorie intake and support for a healthy metabolism. Formulated without whole cereals, it helps minimise the post-feeding glycaemic response, which makes it a sensible choice for good-doers, native breeds and horses at increased risk of metabolic problems.
Super-fibre technology provides slow-release energy for stamina and calm behaviour, while Acid Buf and a mycotoxin binder support digestive health. Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to joint health, essential amino acids support muscle function, and biotin is included at the recommended daily intake for hoof quality. Elevated magnesium supports muscle and cell function, and cinnamon adds palatability alongside antioxidant benefit.
