Description

Dunstan Athlete has been formulated to provide a concentrated source of nutrients to the diet of the racehorse/performance horse. It is a semi-concentrate designed to meet the working horse’s requirements for protein, minerals and vitamins, without the need for further supplementation.

As it is a semi-concentrate, Oats or alternative preferred unfortified ingredients can be added to meet the individual horse’s energy demands for body condition and performance.

Added Vegetable Oil enhances skin and coat condition as well as providing a concentrated source of calories, contributing to the energy density of Dunstan Athlete.

Dunstan Athlete contains a comprehensive formula of minerals. Minerals are provided as glycinate organic trace minerals resulting in improved bioavailability. This ensures maximum feed and nutrient utilisation, also aiding development of the natural immune system.

Organic Selenium as Selenium Yeast is included to provide a highly available and safe form of Selenium.

Dunstan Athlete includes highly bio-available Natural Vitamin E.

Feeding Recommendations

Dunstan Athlete is a high-energy formulation designed for the working horses.

Rates per horse per day:

Light work                      1.5kg plus Oats as required
Moderate work 2.5kg plus Oats as required
Heavy work 3kg plus Oats as required

The above-recommended intakes of Dunstan Athlete are the minimum levels required at each feed (based on a 500kg body weight) to provide a full profile of vitamins and minerals. Further energy is provided by the addition of Oats as required.

Feeding Notes
  • The recommended feeding rates for Dunstan Athlete are based on a 500kg horse.
     
  • Total daily feed intakes will vary depending on pasture availability and body condition. Horses are very much individuals with different metabolic efficiencies, some require a little more, others a little less, for the same level of activity.
     
  • Ensure adequate fibre intakes by providing 1 % - 1 .5% per day of the horse's body weight as chaff, hay, Dunstan Betabeet/Sugarbeet or pasture (on a Dry Matter basis).
     
  • It is advisable to split the daily hard feed into at least two feeds, preferably 3-4, but feed no more than 2.0 kg of Dunstan Athlete per meal.
     
  • Always introduce a new feed gradually over a period of 7 – 10 days, working up to the desired feed intake taking into consideration body condition and work level.
General Notes

Always ensure the Horse has access to clean drinking water.

High Copper levels in Dunstan Athlete make it unsuitable for feeding to sheep.
