When a horse is doing muscular work, its main requirement is a liberal supply of energy. Mineral and vitamin requirements for a working horse, however, are not much more than those required by an idle horse. It should be noted, however, that brood mares require a good supply of protein, minerals and vitamins during pregnancy, and these requirements will increase even further while nursing foals.
