𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 “𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬” 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐠𝐧

I owe you an apology… I completely forgot to share last week’s winner. I know, I know – head like a sieve! But thank you to everyone who’s been getting involved. The comments especially are gold. When owners share real stories about their horses and what’s been working for them, it helps other owners make an informed choice.

So – the winner for week commencing 𝟐𝟒/𝟏𝟏 was 𝐇𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐁𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐨𝐧 and last week’s winner was 𝐀𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐈𝐯𝐞𝐬.
If you’d both drop us a message, we’ll get your £100 sorted and in your bank without delay.

The campaign is still running right up until 21st December, and then we’ll take a breather, review everything in the new year, and decide what’s next. But for now – keep talking, keep commenting, keep getting involved. It really does make an impact.

One more thing… we’re working with an agency on some sponsored ads (because I am absolutely NOT the wizard of Facebook Ads). So if you see them flying around, a like, comment, or share is hugely appreciated. Every bit of engagement helps more horse owners find us, and that keeps the wheels turning.

Big thanks all round 💚

🥳🥳🏆 Congratulations to Lucie Marquis - the wheel winner of the Muddy Mayhem photo competition. I have to say I think the wheel definitely chose well as this is a seriously muddy situation.

Lucie please get in touch with your details so we can get some prizes off to you.

If you know Lucie can you tag her as this page is often rubbish at letting us tag people. (I think if its their profile is set to private)

Keep your eyes peeled later this week for this weekends photo challenge. 👀👀

When the microbial balance in the hindgut is disrupted, it affects how water is absorbed — leading to normal droppings followed by excess fluid.

Switching from fresh grass to dry hay can unsettle digestion and throw off microbial stability.

Cold weather often means horses drink less, leading to dehydration and sluggish digestion.

Reduced movement affects gut motility, which can trigger or worsen FWS.

How you could help your horse 
✅ Maximum Gut Health daily support to restore microbial balance
✅ Maximum Muscle Recovery with electrolytes — hydration, recovery, and antioxidant support in one. ❗️If you only want to try one thing make it the gut support

💡𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲?
When people talk about “topline” they usually jump straight to feed buckets and exercise – but there’s a quiet culprit that often gets missed: the gut.
A horse builds muscle from 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐛𝐬, not just the ones you put in front of it. If the digestive system isn’t working efficiently, you can feed the very best diet in the world and still end up with a horse that looks like it needs a gym membership.

Here’s the chain reaction:
➡️ 𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐠𝐮𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 = 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞
Proteins, amino acids and calories have to be broken down and absorbed before they can be turned into muscle. A sluggish gut means wasted potential.
➡️ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫
If the gut is unsettled, appetite tends to drop. Less eating = fewer building blocks for muscle. A horse won’t bulk up if it’s picking at its hay like a teenager picking at salad.
➡️ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
A comfortable horse moves forward, engages its back, lifts through the core and develops naturally. A tense horse tends to brace, hollow and avoid using the muscles you’re trying to improve.
➡️ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥-𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠

You can’t separate the two. Strong gut function supports body condition, stamina and development over time.
So yes, topline absolutely depends on how the inside is working.

If you want a horse that fills the eye, start at the stomach and work outwards: consistent forage, smart feeding, regular movement, and the right nutritional support to keep digestion ticking over.

Looking after the gut isn’t glamorous, but it’s where results really come from. The shiny coat and muscle definition? That’s just the bonus.

❄️🌨️ 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬: 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞
The cold, damp weather has well and truly arrived, and many of us can feel it in our own joints — so it’s no surprise our horses notice it too. Whether you’re managing an older veteran or a horse in regular work, this time of year can make staying comfortable and supple a little more challenging.

You might see slower warm-ups, a touch of stiffness stepping out, or just a general sense that they’re working harder to stay loose. Age can play a role, of course, but even competition horses benefit from consistent joint support to help maintain long-term mobility and overall longevity in their workload.

That’s where Maximum Animal Health 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 comes in. It’s formulated with ingredients selected to support normal joint function and everyday mobility — a practical addition whether you’re helping a senior stay comfortable through winter or keeping a performance horse feeling their best.
A straightforward, targeted way to support your horse’s ongoing comfort as the season sets in.

The best way to start the day - we really do love customer feedback. Even better when your horse lets you know that life is feeling good.
Also a huge thank you to Rachele Fletcher for spreading the word 🫶

Our horse Leyward Crystal Maze is looking so good on Gut Health. She’s a fussy eater but always eats feed with supplement no problem. Very pleased with how well she is doing. Thank you Rachele Fletcher for recommending this supplement & all the information you gave us.

🐴 𝗠𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗺 𝗙𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 & 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗺
Looking back on Tara’s video — Tara is still a firm fan of combining Maximum Gut Health with Maximum Focus & Calm — it’s a solid reminder of why this pairing earns repeat customers, especially when turnout drops and the weather decides to test everyone’s patience.

Focus & Calm was built to help horses stay more settled and more able to cope when everything around them is a bit chaotic. No gimmicks, nothing overhyped — just a multi-ingredient approach designed to support normal stress responses, clearer focus, and steadier behaviour.

And because it needs saying: we don’t bring out supplements that don’t do the job they were meant for. If it’s on our shelves, it’s because it works.

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐬𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 & 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐦:
• 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐞𝐫, 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞
Very useful when your horse suddenly develops opinions about the wind.
• 𝗘𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗷𝗼𝗯
Support for normal nerve and muscle function, gut comfort during stressful periods, and B-vitamins linked to concentration and normal energy metabolism. Straightforward, effective, and no drama.

And Tara’s right: pairing it with Maximum Gut Health always gives better uptake, which means better results from any supplement you feed.
If your horse is entering their annual “fresh for absolutely no reason” phase, this combination is worth its weight in gold.

🐎‼️ 𝐆𝐮𝐭 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝘀, “𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝘂𝘁 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵?
It’s a fair question — because plenty of people still treat gut support as something you use short-term to sort an issue and then move on. But a horse’s gut doesn’t work like that. It’s constantly reacting to feed changes, workload, stress, travel, turnout adjustments, routine shifts… and the weather.

All of those things influence how the gut behaves, and if support only happens when there’s a problem, you’re forever patching over symptoms instead of giving the gut what it needs day in, day out.

Daily support isn’t excessive — it’s sensible. It helps maintain a healthy digestive environment so your horse can stay comfortable, focused, and settled, not just on the good days.

That’s why our gut-support supplements are designed for daily use. Reliable, steady, and built to help maintain the conditions that support your horse’s overall wellbeing long-term.

Gut health isn’t a “fix it when it breaks” situation. It’s something you stay on top of daily.
