I have a 25-year-old gelding thoroughbred who has always had weight issues, until I switched to Triple Crown Gold Senior. He looks the BEST he has looked in 15 years. His coat looks great and he is maintaining his weight so well. I'm so glad I came across this feed and made the switch! He looks amazing!!
I switched over to Triple Crown Senior and then moved to Triple Crown Senior Gold for my 27-year mare. I do a lot of research before I feed and I found your ingredients are better formulated to meet my needs. We had a rough, wet winter in Oregon, which most aging horses would struggle with but Sweetie did really well on my feed regimen. She runs, bucks and kicks around and I pony her on trail rides to keep her going. Quality feed will make a huge difference in an aging horse and I have had people ask me “She is 27? What do you feed??” I feed my Triple Crown Senior Gold with my Triple Crown Essential Oils and she looks fabulous.
I was first introduced to Triple Crown Nutrition's products though a friend back in 2006. I have tried several different brands and researched extensively into many many feeds. I can say without a shadow of a doubt TCF is the best. I have fed their feeds for 9 years to many different horses. The results are the same. The look and perform their best. TCF has something for every horse dependent on their needs, and I've never gotten the same results from any other company. Right now I am LOVING the Senior Gold, but I proudly feed their other feed lines without hesitation as well. I have been trying to get a sponsorship with Triple Crown for a few years because I am so passionate about their products. It hasn't happened yet, but my loyalty is the same. They truly make the best product out there, and I will continue to stand by their products for my barn and my clients.
I love that Triple Crown is so transparent about their ingredients! I always know exactly what I am feeding. All of my horses and boarders love TC Senior and Balancer. I have a few on StressFree Forage as well. Great for picky eaters and it's great that it easily can be made into a mash!
The Triple Crown Senior Gold is the best, most used product in my barn. It is an excellent product for all of my Thoroughbred’s. I have tried many products over the years and nothing compares to the results I have experienced with the Triple Crown line of products.
