[RC] Feeding fat - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: ti tivers@xxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

what is too much fat? to add a little weight on my gelding we just changed his
grain from 6% fat to a 10% fat grain that has more beet pulp in it. tom, what
would you consider too much fat? also what is the shelf life of your advanced
glycogen loader and do you still recommend that product or do you have a new
and improved one. thanks, mike>

Go back to where you were, if your goal is to win races. Put weight on with 
more grain and more appropriate exercise--you want the weight to be muscle, not 
fat. AGL and GL last "forever" as long as they are kept capped. AGL was 
intended for race horses and GL was intended for endurance, but many are using 
AGL for the back half of 100s now, with good results. AGL is twice as expensive 
as GL.
