My horse won’t touch it
Really sad. Got my first shipment of smart packs and this was the only powdered supplement in there and my horse ate around his grain leaving this at the bottom. Never been a picky eater until this supplement

Really works!
I have an older gelding that has a challenging topline. He has a shark fin wither and a roach back. I have tried several products that worked ok. Then I tried this one. And wow, just saying wow! His topline looks the best it ever has. He will stay on it forever.

My horses were healthy and good looking before this product. But after I started, my buckskin mare’s coat got super shiny! She seems to have chunked out a little more too. She also likes eating it.

It works
My 8 yr old OTTB was treated for EPM which of course caused his muscles to "flatten". This supplement has helped to rebuild his top line.

Excellent results
I chose this product over others on the advice of my vet. I had used another amino acid supplement in the last year, it did not make much difference at all. After about 45-60 days, I was blown away by the change in my mare, both in how much less back sore she was and in how she filled in directly behind her shoulders. She changed shape so much I had to have my saddle re-flocked! It was just that little extra step we needed to get out of the endless feedback loop-- in order to build and use the muscles she didn't have, we needed her to have those muscles. And, I should note, for at least half the time she was on the supplement, she was not in work. Still saw great results. Ordering again to try on my OTTB -- he has muscles for days, but no topline.

My horse seems less sore
My horse that I bought several months ago has not had a easy life. Unfortunately he was not ridden properly and had all kinds of muscle issues from soreness to you could not touch him. I have been using this product for a month now and he has improved greatly. He is less anxious when you are handling him and can ride him now without getting back sore. It has improved his over all health and I am beginning to condition him. I hope his progress continues and I will continue to use this product for the near future.

Amazing! Ulcers are gone and topline is improved!
My 18 yo Appendix mare has battled chronic ulcers for a long time and has a terrible time building and maintaining a topline. I have spent so much on injections and treatments for her back, hocks, SI joint, etc., but those pesky ulcers keep her from feeling her best, and then you feel like you're just throwing good money after bad. I actually purchased this product to treat her ulcers first and foremost, then we could focus on building up her topline from there. This supplement started working immediately. It isn't specifically intended for treating ulcers, but I chose to purchase it after doing a ton of research and looking at the guaranteed analysis of its ingredients vs some other ulcer preventative/treatment supplements and the available amount of amino acids per serving, specifically looking at L-Threonine. I have spent THOUSANDS on omeprazole treatments with unfavorable results. How many times have you done a month of Gastrogard and cleared the ulcers, only to have a positive ulcer test a couple of weeks later while still on a preventative dose? I was so sick of the endless cycle that I decided to try something different after I got another positive for foregut and hindgut bleeding. I completely took her off of omeprazole (still doing sucralfate am/pm) and started her right away on this product- 3 scoops a day split between her am & lunch feed bags. I add a couple pumps of pure aloe juice (which I purchase online from Walmart) and a pump of flaxseed oil to mix the powder with the feed and add to the palatability. The real kicker is that I hadn't yet told my trainer that I had made the change, and 4 days later I received this text after she worked her... "Gracie is getting way better. Much less tension and everything is getting back to easy." After one month on the product, I did another Succeed ulcer test and she was clear for both hindgut and foregut ulcers! I was cautiously optimistic, but I couldn't believe it! It worked! I did another test a week later, just in case she wasn't shedding blood in that first sample, and she was still CLEAR FOR ULCERS and her topline is looking great!

Works Amazing
I've had my horse on this for a few months now and as long as he is in light work and taking this supplement his topline is amazing. He has naturally long back and some hip issues that make keeping a nice topline difficult without it. The smart pack option is great for when I have other people care for him because I know that he will get the exact right dose. It's super easy.

everything looks great...until
This product does really look good until you read the list of other ingredients and come to the last one "Artificial Flavoring!" When will supplement formulators learn that horses do not like anything artificial and not taking into account the fact that they are not beneficial to their overall health! If it's not something artificial it's GMO soy or canola oil...all bad.
