Feed Focus - Complete Performer
Complete Nutrition, Complete Confidence—feed that works as hard as your horse does.
Whether you're managing a horse in regular work or simply looking for a balanced, reliable feed that takes the guesswork out of your feeding program, have a closer look at Barastoc Complete Performer. Designed in conjunction with Kentucky Equine Research (KER), this fully fortified, muesli feed includes chaff, quality fibre sources, and scientifically supported ingredients to support both performance and digestive health.
Why Choose Barastoc Complete Performer? 1. Made for Simplicity Barastoc Complete Performer lives up to its name. It’s a complete, balanced feed that includes: Added lucerne and oaten chaff—no need to mix your own Vitamins and minerals already included Salt added for maintenance requirements
A unique Nutribits pellet to deliver key amino acids and the KER-developed vitamin and mineral premix You can dipper it straight from the bag to the feed bin without adding anything extra. It simplifies feeding, reduces risk of errors, and ensures consistency in every serve.
2. Supports Digestive Health Digestive health is a major concern in performance horses, especially those prone to gastric ulcers or hindgut acidosis. Complete Performer addresses this from multiple angles: Includes Barastoc Gastrolize®, a slow-releasing buffering agent made from red seaweed (Lithothamnion calcareum), which helps raise stomach pH and reduce the risk of ulcers Naturally rich in lucerne, which has been shown to offer superior buffering capacity over grass forages due to its high calcium and protein content Built-in chaff slows intake and aids salivation, producing sodium bicarbonate to help neutralise the acidic environment in the stomach and provides protection to the stomach lining.
Feeding Complete Performer 30 minutes before work offers a simple way to buffer stomach acid and protect gastric health during exercise.
3. Balanced Energy Without the Fizz Formulated with a combination of cooked cereal grains, digestible fibres, and vegetable oils rich in omega fatty acids (DHA & EPA), Complete Performer delivers calm, slow release energy that’s ideal for:
Daily training and light to moderate work Horses needing condition and controlled energy Picky eaters or horses prone to digestive upset Its lower energy density reduces the risk of overfeeding, while still providing enough fuel to maintain condition and support recovery from work, injury or stress.
4. Highly Palatable and Nutritious Complete Performer is lightly molassed to reduce dust and improve palatability—making it an excellent choice for fussy horses. And unlike feeds were loose vitamins and minerals settle at the bottom of the bag, the added Nutribits pellet ensures nutrients are evenly distributed.
How to Feed Introduce gradually over 7–10 days. Feed alongside good-quality pasture or hay. For horses prone to ulcers, feeding a small amount (½ to 1 dipper) just before exercise can help buffer gastric acid and reduce the risk of acid splash. Need help tailoring your horse’s diet?
