Ultium® Competition Horse Formula is highly researched nutrition for the high energy demands of hard-working equine athletes, allowing them to compete at their highest levels. When others hit the wall, your horse keeps going.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND ULTIUM® COMPETITION HORSE FORMULA
Patented, proprietary technology is the culmination of decades of Purina® equine research. Ultium® Competition Horse Formula has been successfully field-tested across a wide spectrum of competitive disciplines.
Unique “pellets and extruded Amplify® nuggets” aim to prevent sorting, reduce waste and transport easily. Highly palatable and digestible, it’s “nutrient dense,” and “highly efficient” so you can “feed less.”
Sustained Energy System® features a unique blend of three (3) fuel
sources:
1. Fat
2. Fermentable Fiber
3. Soluble carbohydrates (starch
and sugar)
Research in horses has shown that the dietary energy source can influence activity and excitability. Specifically, when compared to concentrates high in starch and sugar, the feeding of a diet higher in fat and fiber but with less starch and sugar helps promote more manageable behavior. Ultium® Competition Horse Formula seamlessly “blends” three fuel sources into a smooth, unbroken “steady” stream of energy. Horses consuming Ultium® Competition Horse Formula will receive more calories from highly digestible fiber sources and vegetable oils, and fewer calories from sugar and starch than if they were being fed a traditional grain based diet. This type of dietary formulation provides the horse with what is referred to as “cool” energy. Studies have shown that certain horses are sensitive to higher levels of sugar and starch in their diet. These horses tend to be less excitable and more manageable when fed lower levels of starch and sugar.
Features & Benefits
Sustained Energy
System®
A unique blend of three fuel sources to provide a steady
level of highly digestible energy: soluble carbohydrates, fats and fermentable
fiber. A horse that is mentally focused, controllable and manageable has the
best chance of winning.
Targeted Nutrition Delivery System
Quickly transports
repair nutrients where they’re needed most. Unique amino acid profile and
top-quality fuel sources replenish glycogen and protein stores in muscles to
assist in muscle repair with less muscle fatigue for faster bounce back,
competition after competition.
Nutrient and
Energy-Dense
Supports prolonged stamina and endurance while
maintaining the equine athlete in peak competitive condition. Less feed is
required for maintenance of body condition when compared to feeds with lower
energy density, helping prevent digestive upset.
Reduced Starch,
Higher Fat
May help reduce the risk of colic and other digestive
disturbances that can occur when feeding large quantities of grain
Purina® Amplify® High-Fat Nugget
A proprietary blend of
vegetable oils, flax seed and rice bran smooths the glucose and insulin response
to dietary starch and sugar, leveling out blood sugar levels for a pronounced
calming effect.
Precise Amino Acid Profile
For
optimal muscle performance and recovery. Promotes muscle tone and a strong
top line.
Highly Fermentable Fiber
Metabolized in the hindgut,
providing slow-releasing energy and preserving muscle glycogen. Anecdotal
evidence in field tests also indicates Ultium® Competition Horse Formula may be
beneficial for horses that have a tendency to “tie up.”
Balance
of Vitamins and Minerals
Including B-Vitamins, Iron, Copper,
Calcium, Phosphorus and Magnesium: blood-building nutrients that help optimize
red blood cell production and increase oxygen capacity in exercising horses. The
proper balance of Calcium and Phosphorus promotes stronger
bones.
Added Antioxidants
Including Vitamins E, C and
Selenium help address the negative effects of free radicals and support a strong
immune system
Concentrate Feed
Designed to be fed
with hay or pasture
