Formulated for Growing Horses

Young horses require carefully balanced nutrition to support the development of muscles, bones and connective tissues without compromising healthy, controlled growth.

HorsePower Yearling has been specifically developed to meet these nutritional demands.

The formula combines high-quality protein with essential amino acids, minerals, vitamins and trace elements to help provide the nutritional building blocks required during the important weanling and yearling growth stages.

High-Quality Protein & Essential Amino Acids

HorsePower Yearling uses micronised lupins as a high-quality protein source.

The formulation supplies important amino acids including lysine and methionine, which play key roles in growth, muscle and tissue development.

Micronisation also helps improve the digestibility and availability of nutrients within the feed.

Energy for Growth & Condition

HorsePower Yearling provides approximately 14 MJ/kg of digestible energy, helping provide the energy required for growth, development and maintaining appropriate body condition.

Energy is supplied through ingredients including:

• Micronised barley

• Vegetable oil

This combination provides a highly palatable ration suitable for growing horses and sales preparation programs.

Zeolite for Growing Horses
