FUSSY EATERS

["guest@endurance.net" <guest@endurance.net>]

CELESTE MURRAY celestem@badgermining.co.za
MY RIDING PARTNER NEEDS SOME FEEDING INFO.
INFO:
MARE IS A TWELVE YEAR OLD ARABIAN AROUND 14.3hh.
DONE A SEASON LAST YEAR AND COMPLETED THREE 60KM (+-38MILES) RIDES WITH A FIRST AND TWO FOURTH PLACES.
GOOD RECOVERY RATES, ALL OTHER VETERINARY CRITERIA GOOD AT RIDES (WHAT YOU WOULD CONSIDER ALL "A'S")
SHE GETS A BALANCED RATION AIMED AT ENDURANCE HORSES, MY GELDING IS ON THE SAME RATION WITH NO PROBLEMS SO ITS NOT THE FEED.
PROBLEM:
SHE HAS A GOOD APPETITE OUT OF WORK AND IS A GOOD DOER ON THE RATION SHE GETS (THE RATION MENTIONED ABOVE)
THE MORE SHE GETS INTO HER TRAINING THE LESS SHE EATS, THIS INCLUDES HER CONSUMPTION OF TEFF (TIMOTHY THERE I THINK).
SHE GETS TO A POINT WHERE SHE IS NOT EATING ENOUGH TO KEEP SUFFICIENT WEIGHT ON TO GET HER THROUGH A 80KM (+-50MILES) TRAINING RIDE WE DID AT HOME (WE HAD ALL THE CHECKS ETC. JUST LIKE AT A REAL RIDE)
I SHOULD JUST MENTION THE VET DID A COMPLETE PHYSICAL AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG AND SHE IS NO BETER WHEN RECEIVING AN APPETITE STIMULANT.
QUESTION:
WHAT CAN HE DO (IF ANYTHING) TO GET HER TO EAT!

PLEASE ANSWER DIRECT TO celestem@badgermining.co.za AS I AM NOT ON THE SUBSCRIBERS LIST.
