I am not entirely surprised to hear this. When I was crewing two weeks ago at American River there were several horses that I personally know are on Ultium that were very "on the edge" quivering, had to keep them walking, etc...and a couple who actually got pulled. Being our local ride, I knew quite a few horses there and being a Dynamite person, I know what most of the folks around here are feeding.
Personally, I prefer Dynamite products, of course..! We all take a risk, we just have to measure that risk against what we believe in our soul is the best for our horse. I leave for two days (50 mi each day) at Washoe in the morning. Wish us luck! It was a good ride for Fellow last year.

My daughter’s horse had a major tie-up several weeks
ago. It was terrible! She is now 3 weeks post event and still has
elevated enzymes. Several people emailed me and said their horses had tie-up
episodes while on Ultium. Please post to the list your findings as others
are experiencing this problem too. My prayers are with you,
