Triple Crown® Lite is a dietary breakthrough for “easy keepers,” horses that maintain their weight on very little grain or just on grass and hay - thus shortchanging themselves on essential vitamins and minerals. Triple Crown Lite is so heavily fortified, you can feed as few as two pounds a day. For other feeds, you would need to feed 5 pounds or more for proper vitamin and mineral nutrition. Unless, of course, you think your horse looks good with a pigtail. For more information or to find a dealer near you, visit www.triplecrownfeed.com or call 800-451-9916. 4.
