Re: [RC] methods to encourage drinking in ridecamp - Truman Prevatt
There are a lot of good electrolyte formulations out there designed for
endurance horses. Perfrome and Win is a good one, but there are others.
Runnngbear and Roger both sell it. EnduroMax is another designed for
endurance horses and you can find it on the KER site.
Plain old lite salt and regular salt mixed 50/50 will also works. Throw
in half as much dolomite nad you have Kerry Ridgeway's home brew mix. I
"pre-load" starting about Thursday with some in the feed so that when
they start they start out will a full tank.

Now that I've purchased something I must return- (Equi-ade), I need to get
ideas of how to encourage my horse to drink in camp so he's got a full tank
on race day. Anyone have a very excited pony who can't focus on taking care
of himself in ridecamp? I already have a buddy in camp with him, but this
hasn''t proven to help him take care of himself any better.

At the end of the day maybe the definition of endurance isn't the length of
the ride but rather the spirit in which it is ridden.
