 appropriate to long distance ability.  I believe that feeding the
 amounts of grain (proportional to body weight) that Tom uses for his
 racehorses would be, at best, counterproductive for endurance horses
 (and, at worst, potentially dangerous).

See my recent post on exercise research and nutrition up to 1995. You'll see
