Benchmark Horse Feeds Perfect Mash 20kg at a glance
Suitable for
Horses

Benchmark Perfect Mash is a transformational complete feed, naturally low in starch and sugar.

By using highly fermentable super fibres as an energy source instead of grains and grain by-products, Perfect Mash is made for horses as fibre fermenters rather than grain digesters.

Highly palatable, Benchmark Perfect Mash is rich in natural antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and electrolytes, and it is genuinely non-heating.

Benchmark Perfect Mash contains natural antioxidants, including Alkosel 3000 and Melofeed, plus pre and pro-biotics.

Formulated for all horses, and particularly suitable for:

  • Horses and ponies that need extra condition.
  • Horses and ponies in light to medium work, needing a cool ration.
  • Horses and ponies participating in trail riding or endurance that require energy to be available over an extended period.
  • Horses that are reactive to high starch, grain-based feeds.

Ingredients:

Lupin hulls, soy hulls, whole lupin, canola meal, cold pressed canola oil, salt, Benchmark's vitamin & mineral premix, Melofeed (SOD), Alkosel 3000 selenium yeast, Agrimos prebiotics & Yea-Sacc probiotics.

Benchmark Perfect Mash can be fed as a mash or dry if preferred. Mash preparation (by volume): to 1 part Perfect Mash add 2-3 parts of cold or warm water.

By weight: to every 500 g of Perfect Mash add 1-1.5 litres of cold or warm water. Perfect Mash should be introduced gradually over 7-10 days to allow your horse's gut enzymes to adjust to the new feed.
