The nutritional argument is that a horse short of magnesium and B vitamins is a horse with a nervous system under strain, and that the answer is diet rather than a paste before you get on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is built to be fed as the sole concentrate: straw, grass and fibre pellets with a broad-spectrum vitamin and mineral supplement, running at 9.8 MJ\/kg with starch at 2.8% and sugar at 7–8%.
