For hard keepers that need more calories, this textured feed supplies energy with lower sugar and starch. High fat at 10% and fiber at 18% help hard keepers and hard workers hold condition, and the low NSC level of 16.5%, meaning lower sugar and starch, suits horses with sensitivities that still need more calories. It can serve as a complete feed when hay is in short supply or unavailable.
Digestive support is built in. Uptake Technology brings pre- and probiotics, enzymes and phospholipids to help your horse absorb more of what he eats. Constant Comfort, a seaweed-derived calcium, supports gastric pH for horses prone to digestive upset. There is no added iron.
Highlights
- High fat for hard keepers
- Can replace forage when hay is unavailable
- Low NSC for sugar and starch sensitivities
- Uptake Technology for nutrient absorption
- Constant Comfort supports gastric pH
- No added iron

*Senior Sport® can be used as a complete feed when hay is in short supply or unavailable. Feed up to 2% of your horse’s body weight of Senior Sport® per day, but divide into at least 4 feedings per day. Do not feed more than 5 pounds of any horse feed per feeding.
Scan to use our feeding rate calculator if your horse is in a different life stage or body weight.
* An Enzyme Unit is defined as cellulase - μg cellulose broken down/min/lb of feed; protease - μg proteins hydrolyzed/min/lb of feed; lipase - μg triglycerides hydrolyzed/min/lb of feed; hemicellulase - μg hemicellulose broken down/min/lb of feed
* A Phytase Unit (FTU) is defined as the quantity of enzyme which liberates one micromole of inorganic phosphate per minute from sodium phytate at 37°C, 5.5 pH
This feed contains a source of live, viable microorganisms.
