Triple Crown Senior features a beet pulp-based formula with a higher nutrient and fat content to provide the digestive assistance and calories older horses require to maintain good body condition. It is ideal for horses of any age needing additional fiber and needing reduced starch and sugar levels. This feed can be mixed with water to form a mash for horses that have difficulty chewing and swallowing and has enough bulk fiber to be used as a sole ration for horses unable to eat hay or pasture.

I swapped to TC over an ago, and have visibly seen it work wonders. I feed both my 4 y/o and my 23 y/o the Triple Crown Senior and they are thriving! They both have developed shinier coats and better muscle definition for sure. It is an excellent product for performance horses as well as our seniors who are just enjoying the retired life.
Triple Crown Senior really helped my filly put on weight and fill out. She looks so good on it! It’s a great product to fill them out and make their coat look great without making them hot. Definitely would recommend for all types and ages of horses!
I have 2 old full sized horses, both were rescues and are 31 and 27. Both were put on the senior to help get weight back on years ago when I first got them….they are doing great and I even tried the gold variety for a bit when the feed store was unable to get any regular in stock….the boys ate it but not as well. I tried another brand even but they would not eat that at all….once I was able to get the senior again….boys went back to eating like champs. And keeping weight on and just looking wonderful again….i will never again give them anything but triple crown senior….
Since my horse was 4 until about 6 I have tried every feed out there. Some made him to hot, and some didn’t give him the weight gain I wanted. He never had the weight I wanted and energy. It wasn’t till I started working at a feed store, were the TC Rep came in one day and told me to give the senior a try. I haven’t stopped feeding it since. 3 years in. My horse has great weight and the perfect amount of energy from the feed. I appreciate the rep that comes into the store. I love this feed.
I feed my 36 year old registered 16.2H Paint/Quarter Horse only Triple Crown Senior. Fred was a cribber his when I got him at the young age of 6 years old. We tried cribbing collars until he started getting choked at the age of 24 and decided to take the collar off. Fred now has only gums for front teeth ( his tongue hangs out but it just gives him more character). Over the years, I tried beet pulp additives, amplify, calf manna, numerous other senior feeds along with alfalfa hay, nothing really kept him in good body condition. About 8 years ago, my amazing vet told me about Triple Crown Senior and said I should try it. It is the best decision I’ve ever made for him! It is all he eats now. He quids grass and hay so literally his feed is all he eats. Fred looks amazing at 36! He has a beautiful thick neck, not a rib can be seen. His coat is smooth and shines! Triple Crown Senior feed has given my boy extra years and hopefully many more years!
