[RC] Flax Seed - Nancy Sturm

I think I'm going to try flax seed on my miserably itchy pony.  The feed store says to soak it, a UK vet on-line says that's not necessary.
 
The pony is 14.1 hands,  probably weighs about 700 lbs - how much should he get?   He doesn't usually get anything except grass hay because (like his owner) he's a typically easy keeper, but he does love beet pulp.  Could I soak  1/2 cup of flax seed and add it to a small amount of soaked beet pulp?
