Allen & Page Veteran Light
🌱 Low-calorie senior feed — high-fibre, low-starch & ideal for older, good-doer horses

Short Overview
Allen & Page Veteran Light is a nourishing low-calorie feed designed specifically for older horses and ponies — particularly those that are “good doers”, laminitis-prone, dentally challenged or in light work. It’s high in digestible fibre and very low in starch and sugar, making it suitable as a partial or main soaked feed for ageing equines.


✅ Key Benefits
Low calorie & low energy — ideal for older horses at rest or in light work. 
High in fibre, low in starch and sugar (<10% combined) — supports metabolic comfort and weight management. 
– Includes prebiotics and probiotics to support a healthy digestive system. 
Highly palatable with premium blended herbs — appealing even to fussy feeders. 
– Contains linseed for Omega-3 and elevated vitamins C & E for antioxidant support. 
– Suitable for horses and ponies with barley, molasses, alfalfa or soya intolerances
– Easy to soak and chew; great for dentally challenged or older mouths
