Triple Crown Low Starch contains no whole grains, molasses or alfalfa meal, ingredients many horse owners associate with hyperactivity and allergies. With fewer carbohydrates than most hay and pasture, this feed provides additional calories for performance horses and horses with elevated levels of metabolism. By utilizing high quality fiber sources and added fat, including rice bran and flaxseed, essential calories are provided while keeping sugar and starch levels low.

Feeding Directions
FEEDING DIRECTIONS
| Horse Weight (lb.) | Low Starch (lb./day) | Minimum Forage (lb./day) |
| 600 lb | 3 - 4 lb. | 9 - 12 lb. |
| 900 lb. | 4 - 9 lb. | 13.5 - 18 lb. |
| 1,100 lb. | 5 - 11 lb. | 16.5 - 22 lb. |
| 1,300 lb. | 6 - 13 lb. | 19.5 - 26 lb. |
Feeding recommendations are based on average daily requirements. Horse’s needs may vary based on age, work level,
metabolism, weather and other factors. Triple Crown Low Starch can be fed to all horses 1 year of age or older.
Feed enough to maintain desired body condition and energy level, along with hay and/or pasture, water and salt. Adjust the amount of Triple Crown Low Starch up or down as needed. If less than the amount recommended is fed per day, supplement with a Triple Crown Balancer, Balancer Gold, Diamond Balancer or Triple Crown Lite.
While Low Starch is a complete diet and can replace all or a part of the fiber portion of your horse’s diet, we strongly recommend you continue to feed long stem hay or pasture. Do not feed more than 0.50% of the horse’s body weight of Triple Crown Low Starch in a single meal and if feeding that amount, allow at least 3 to 4 hours between meals.
NOTE: Provide plenty of fresh, clean water at all times. Keep product fresh in cool, dry storage. Examine product daily. DO NOT use if old, moldy or contaminated with insects.
CAUTION: Follow label directions. Product contains Copper; do not feed to sheep.

It is working very well for our 25 year old pony. I would highly recommend this product for foundered pony’s.
My 35 year old pony felt left out without getting grain so a low starch feed helped him fit right in.
Perfect addition to free choice hay for a "fat on air" Mustang.
We have a mustang and she loves this food! She’s definitely an easy keeper, and this has helped her keep a perfect weight! Thank you Triple Crown!
Perfect addition to my horse's diet, keeps her at an ideal weight!

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
