It is the same mature Timothy grass, compressed and fed whole and dry so the horse works at it head-down, much as it would graze.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStarch is declared under 1%, the lowest figure in Simple System's range, with sugar under 12% and crude fibre 25–35%. One block is one day's ration for a 100kg pony, or a fifth of a 500kg horse's daily allowance, which makes the single-block pack straightforward to portion for box rest or an afternoon in the trailer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% pure mature Timothy grass compressed into a block.
