Triple Crown Lite is a whole grain and molasses free pellet ideal for easy keepers — horses that maintain their weight on very little grain or on grass and hay alone. It is also for miniature horses, horses with metabolic disease and those prone to founder and laminitis, and is designed to provide supplemental minerals and vitamins without encouraging excessive weight gain.

I compared a lot of competing feeds when I was bringing home my yearling mini, who turned out to be both a VERY easy keeper and a picky eater. He absolutely LOVES his Lite feed, and I love not worrying as much about him gaining weight or not getting enough out of his hay alone.
Triple Crown Lite is one of the best feeds on the market. The low feeding rate makes it affordable to feed while giving proper nutrition without excessive calories. I've tried other competitive feeds on the market and I'v found that my appaloosa "Flash" does amazing on this feed. Feeding at the recommend lower rate saves me money and my horse is happy so I call that a win .
I had to take my gelding off of all the feed he had been getting when I found out he is insulin resistant. He was put on grass hay and started losing his top line almost immediately. I started looking for a feed that didn't contain molasses or corn and found triple crown lite. Vegas is doing great and I have my other horse on it as well. Love this product!
This feed was great for my senior pony who foundered. Kept her well fed without the worry of intaking too much sugar.
My gelding has been on Triple Crown Lite and I get lots of compliments on his coat and healthy look. Love this grain to maintain him.

1. One cellulase unit (CU) is defined as the amount of activity that will produce a relative fluidity change of 1 (determined with a calibrated viscometer) in 5 minutes in a defined carboxymethylcellulose substrate at pH 4.5 and 40°C.
2. One hemoglobin unit (HUT) of proteolytic (protease) activity is defined as that amount of enzyme that produces, in one minute under the specified conditions, a hydrolysate whose absorbance at 275nm is the same as that of a solution containing 1.10g per mL of tyrosine in 0.006N hydrochloric acid.
