I tried UltraFire by Finish line and really like it! http://www.finishlinehorse.com/products/feed-supplements/ultrafire-...

Born not Made Posts: 2937 Location: North Dakota	What is your horse currently being FED? Pasture? Hay? What type? Grain? How much? Etc. I think sometimes that "fire" comes from overall nutrition. I was looking for the same thing for my horse Red last year. I normally fed him very little grain because he is an easy keeper and on pasture 24/7. I wasn't in a position to change his pasture in my boarding situation, but I could change his grain. I had only been giving him 1/2 pound to mix with his T.H.E. supplement. I increased it slowly to about 2 pounds, and even that small amount increase I noticed he had way more fire in his runs and clocking better.

She gets 1/2 scoop of 14% protein pellet with 1/2 scoop of whole oats twice daily. She is turned out 24/7 and has free choice quality hay in the winter. She doesn't need any more umph when we are working at home, and I don't want her to lose her level head. I'm mostly searching for something that I can give her before a race to give her that little extra boost.

If its a smaller show i will also just give her the Oxy-max. I also use their Joint supplement and the one for moody mares. I love all their products.
