Diet Description
Saracen Show Improver Mix is the ultimate in conditioning feeds, whether for that extra condition in the sales or show ring, or to put condition on thin horses and 'poor doers'. It is a highly nutritious, energy-dense blend of high class ingredients containing a high level of calories from complex carbohydrates and pure vegetable oil, as well as energy from highly digestible fibre and Super Fibres, in a balance that makes it easy for the horse to put on condition safely without over exuberance.
To help ensure that the digestive system is not over burdened with starch, whilst making weight gain easy, Super Fibres and Equi-Jewel are included in this recipe. Super Fibres contain a similar level of accessible calories to that of cereals which are delivered in a slow release fashion, thus helping avoid the fizz associated with high grain diets. Equi- Jewel is totally unique to Saracen in the UK, and is a low in starch, high-fat stabilised rice bran. This increases the energy density of the ration, making it even more calorie dense. In addition, Saracen Extruded Barley Hoops are included. Extrusion produces a more digestible product with a higher digestible nutrient value than straight or micronised cereals. The mix also contains protein sources of premium quality, which are essential for the conditioning process and muscle development. As with all Saracen diets, this feed has liberal quantities of Saracen Super Shine Plus (Soya Oil) added, for promoting excellent coat condition and gloss, whether it be for at home, the show or the sales ring.

I cannot recommend this product highly enough. I was introduced to this feed by your then Area Manager Nick Trantum - 14 years ago - when I had rescued an extremely emaciated thoroughbred mare - which I still own. Once I had brought her back to full health, she has always looked amazing - her coat absolutely gleams. The other great thing about this feed is that she maintains her weight, without the "fizz". I have lost count of the number of people who have asked me what I feed - and many of them have changed to feed Saracens too. I also feed my cob Show Improver - Cooling Mix did not suit him at all - and he did not maintain his weight with veteran mix (he is now 25 years young). I find although your feeds are more expensive per 20 kg - the difference is in fact outweighed by the amount you have to feed - and the quality - no comparison!

I used to feed my horse re leve which he looked well on but i was advised to feed him equi jewel over the winter period to maintain his weight as well, but the show improver mix already has equi jewel in it. I now feed him that on its own which he looks even better on and it costs me half as much.His coat gleams and he looks great.I wouldn't feed him anything else now and he loves it too! I would definatly recommend this feed to anyone who has a horse who is difficult to keep weight on,like my 16.3hh TB X ID 16yr old gelding. Its great!

The feed is amazing, my old T.B mare was Sooo fussy and very difficult to keep weight on. I tried other leading brands but had no luck... Until I got a freebee sample at Hickstead many years ago and haven't looked back since! she loved it AND has continued to enjoy it! she looks amazing, and her coat is soft and gleaming! I've had so many Ppl over the years say how great she looks and ask what she's fed on. I would always recommend Saracens, you pay for Quality feed, and peace of mind that your horse is gona feel and look Fab! I recently brought a youngster that was in poor condition, bunged her on it and she looked a totally different horse in 6wks, I was amazed at how quick the visual turn-around was. I've not found this feed heating in any way, for my old fizzy T.B mare or my youngster.

I started my Two Thoroughbreds on show improver mix over a year ago never looked back since the quality the food brings a high standard coat to my chestnut and she cannot get enough of it, my horses are my life through mental health issues as a ex serviceman I bring them care they give me comfort. So all in all I would tell everyone how good this feed is even when attending shows. Many thanks Saracen
