SHAVINGS
Because horses in training spend so much of their time in their stables, the quality of the bedding you use can be just as important to their health and wellbeing as the quality of their feed and nutrition.
For over 25 years we have been making BEDMAX shavings specifically to help you keep your horses at the peak of their health, fitness and performance…
Our shavings are purpose made to maximise:
• Respiratory health
• Hoof health
• Hygiene & biosecurity
• Comfort & cushioning
• Rest & recovery
Beating the NOPS Doping Risk
We are the first and only bedding manufacturer in Great Britain to achieve BETA NOPS Bedding accreditation, certifying that we proactively manage our production to avoid the risk of contamination by any Naturally Occurring Prohibited Substances that could cause a failed doping test.
Dependable supply
We also understand how important it is for trainers to be able to depend on the supply of a bedding they can trust. Today our three dedicated factories in the UK deliver BEDMAX shavings to trainers in racing centres of excellence all over the world.

ProSol by the Irish Equine Centre
ProSol is a unique probiotic solution tailored to each horse, containing live beneficial bacteria harvested from the horse’s own faecal sample.
WHY USE PROSOL?
Billions of bacteria inhabit the horse’s digestive tract and are essential for breaking down the horse’s feed to generate energy. Collectively, these bacteria are referred to as the gut flora. A healthy gut flora plays a major role in immunity and the prevention of disease. A horse cannot consistently perform to the best of its ability with a gut flora imbalance.
ProSol can help to restore the balance of the gut flora where tests show an imbalance. Causes of gut flora imbalance include antibiotic treatment, stress, intensive training, diet, viral infections and parasites. Using cryo-preservation, the IEC can store these beneficial bacteria offering a safety net for the lifetime of the horse. Following 20 years of extensive gut flora research, the IEC has been able to identify and isolate the beneficial bacteria required to balance the horse’s gut flora.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
ProSol contains only the horse’s own beneficial bacteria suspended in sterile water.
I have been using the ProSol probiotic service for some time and I appreciate its innovative concept and the face that it’s a natural product. It has become an important tool for training my racehorses and maintaining their wellbeing.

BONEKARE ® by JARAZ Enterprises GmbH & Co. KG
BONEKARE® contains patented vitamin KQ® to help increase bone density and reduce osteochondreal defects in horses.
WHY USE BONEKARE®?
In the world of equine care, understanding the nuances of your horse’s bone health is paramount. One critical aspect often overlooked is the impact of Vitamin K1 deficiency, especially in horses confined to stalls.
As horses engage in physical activity—be it running across pastures, playing in paddocks, or undergoing training regimes—they subject their bones to positive stress. This stress, when appropriately managed, stimulates bone remodelling, reinforcing their structural integrity and resilience.
However, this virtuous cycle hinges on the presence of key micronutrients, among which Vitamin K1 plays a most crucial role. Vitamin K1, particularly in our bio-available form, facilitates the activation of proteins essential for bone metabolism. By promoting the production of osteocalcin—a protein responsible for binding calcium to bone tissue—Vitamin K1 ensures proper mineralisation and strength.
Conversely, a deficiency in Vitamin K1 can disrupt this delicate equilibrium, leading to demineralisation of
bones and potentially causing discomfort and pain for the horse. Moreover, insufficient Vitamin K1 levels may contribute to the development of bone abnormalities, compromising the horse’s overall health, confirmation, and performance. Additionally, the positive stress from physical activity can turn into negative stress, exacerbating these issues.
Ensuring adequate levels of Vitamin K1 alongside a well-balanced diet rich in essential nutrients is imperative for safeguarding equine skeletal health. BoneKare®’s efficacy is backed by scientific research and independent studies. Our patented main ingredient, Vitamin KQ®, has demonstrated measurable improvements in bone density and health, providing peace of mind that you’re offering a scientifically validated solution.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
Vitamin KQ®: UV-stable, bio-available form of Vitamin K1, Vitamin D3 & Di-Calcium Phosphate.
Furthermore, our Vitamin KQ® is the exclusive form of Vitamin K1 registered for horses in the EU/UK, while our UV-stable, bio-available formulation is patent protected.

MAH ® Liquid & MAH ® Concentrated Syringes
by Nupafeed
Advanced magnesium compound for stressful and difficult behaviour, or to address magnesium balance in the diet.
WHY USE NUPAFEED MAH?
Magnesium, known as the anti-stress mineral, is a proven nutrient to help prevent stressful and erratic behaviour, and to manage hardworking muscles. Unlike other calming additives, magnesium is a key electrolyte that contributes directly to athletic performance and post-exercise muscle recovery.
MAH® provides a highly absorbable source of magnesium to support focus and performance during demanding situations. Ideal for training, travel and competition, it helps maintain normal muscle function and optimum magnesium status.
MAH® is a pharmaceutically developed magnesium compound, designed to improve magnesium absorption without causing acid-base disruption. MAH® can also be fed at high levels without hindering the absorption of calcium or iron.
Magnesium is depleted during times of stress or strenuous exercise. Supplementation is indicated for horses that cope poorly with stress, to manage behavioural problems in training, sales prep, travel, parade ring and starting stalls, and to manage muscle recovery.
Fully BHA and HRI compliant, no withdrawal. Pharmaceutical-quality magnesium supplement with no drowsy additives.
KEY INGREDIENT:
MAH® (Magnesium L-aspartate hydrochloride).
FEEDING GUIDE:
Initial loading 10ml/100kg three times daily, then reduce to requirement. Syringes can be used alone or with the Liquid for sales, travel or race day.

Better Biome by Baileys Horse Feeds
An innovative gut supplement which brings together pre-, proand postbiotics in a unique support package for the horse’s microbiome, to help promote optimum gut health.
WHY USE BETTER BIOME?
When stress or excitement cause more frequent droppings, beneficial microorganisms are rapidly lost from the digestive system, leading to an imbalance and potential increase in acidity levels. Better Biome is designed to support a healthy microbiome balance, helping stabilise gut pH, encourage healthy droppings and, potentially, helping the horse feel more at ease.
By definition, antibiotics are designed to kill bacteria and, even though they may not ‘target’ those friendly species in the hindgut, it’s highly likely that some will suffer a depletion in numbers, especially from oral antibiotics. Feeding Better Biome while a horse is on antibiotics, and continuing for a period once the treatment is finished, should help beneficial microbial populations flourish.
Supporting the mare’s microbiome, with Better Biome, throughout pregnancy and lactation supports her immune response and digestive efficiency, which may be reflected in milk quality. Suckling foals, especially those who have received antibiotics, may also benefit from Better Biome, helping support the development of a diverse microbiome, for immunity and digestive health.
Better Biome is ideally given on a daily basis but can also be reserved for known times of stress, such as weaning, travelling and yard or routine changes.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
Its prebiotics act as a food source for beneficial bacteria, so that they can flourish, and have been found to help stabilise both gastric and gut pH. The live probiotic yeast has been shown to out-compete lactic acid producing bacteria, in the hindgut, reducing their numbers and helping further stabilise pH, while yeast-derived postbiotics, which include the metabolites of fermentation, like volatile fatty acids, B vitamins and antioxidants, are all beneficial to the horse’s health.

Easi Oil
by ARKequine
A premium cold-pressed linseed oil enriched with seaweed and vitamin E to support condition, coat, and vitality. Easi Oil provides slow-release energy without the fizz – ideal for horses needing extra calories, shine, or support through work.
WHY USE EASI OIL?
Easi Oil is a highly palatable conditioning oil for all horses, especially those needing extra calories, improved coat shine, or support during work. It provides a natural, slow-release energy source without causing excitability, making it ideal for performance horses and poor doers. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, it supports skin, coat, joint, and overall health. Added vitamin E, a potent antioxidant, helps combat oxidative stress, while seaweed supplies valuable trace minerals. Competition safe, Easi Oil is an excellent daily addition to any feeding programme.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
We started using Easi Oil last December because the horses had not been performing as well as we thought they should. Since then their form has been much improved and they have run consistently well. I am sure the improvement has been down to the use of Easi Oil in their diet.
• Cold-pressed linseed oil – a natural source of omega-3 (ALA).
• Vitamin E – contributes to antioxidant protection.
• Seaweed – provides trace minerals as part of a varied diet.

The results were so positive that we gradually introduced it across the whole yard, and now it’s part of our standard feeding programme.

I have been feeding D&H RacePower Power & Perform Cubes and the horses look great on the feed and eat it well. It is especially great when I’m backing them up quickly. It is a great feed and both my flat and jump horses seem to thrive on it and consistently perform well.

Dengie Horse Feeds
Dengie Alfa-A Original supports the horse’s health without compromising on the highest quality nutrition to support optimal performance. This is why it’s the natural choice of champion trainers across the UK and Europe. Providing high quality fibre, Dengie Alfa-A Original promotes gastric health and supports the horse’s welfare by satisfying their need to chew.
WHY USE DENGIE ALFA-A ORIGINAL?
Fit performance horses are notoriously picky eaters and this straw-free formulation of pure alfalfa with a light molasses coating is sure to tempt fussy feeders.
Alfa-A Original supplies high quality plant protein, essential for building muscle tone and repairing and rebuilding tissues. Alfalfa is also naturally rich in calcium supporting bone and hoof health and providing a natural buffer to acidity. Independent studies have repeatedly demonstrated the benefits of including alfalfa in the rations of performance horses.
Alfalfa is low in sugar and starch and is rich in other naturally occurring vitamins and minerals that are easily absorbed by the horse and contribute to overall health and performance. Dengie alfalfa is grown specifically for use in equine nutrition and to our very exacting standards with sport safety in mind.
Alfa-A Original – a Stubbs scoop weighs 400g so there are over 50 scoops per 20kg bale.
