calm and condition is a good feed to help gain weight, also try putting a tablespoon of vegetable oil in his feed, this should help him keep the weight on.
generally thoroughbreds are very thin, just make sure he&#039;s worked enough to stop muscle wastage, and make sure you rug him up well enough so he doesn&#039;t get cold, remember lack of fat = lack of heat.
if he&#039;s not too fiery, also try him on a half hay/half haylage mix as well as his feed. 
good luck!</description>

Did you see if he needed his Teeth floated? If not have the Vet check on that.
My Paint mare was very skinny when I got her, so we put her on a diet starting out slowly.
Hay Cubes 10 percent of her body weight- Soaked in Hot water and molasses.
Senior feed in the green bag, for older Horses, but it has everything she needs in her diet.
A long with Hay pellets for both my Horses. I always have Hay available at all times.
14 percent Grain.
And the best fattening source is Corn Oil one cup in your Thoroughbred&#039;s feed.
Please look at theses Pictures of Angel my Paint. Before and after pictures!
I wish you the best of luck. But please see if he needs his teeth looked at!</description>

I have 3 ex racehorses and the first thing I do is have their teeth done, fecal to check for parasites and make sure that the wormer I am using hits the mark and then have them evaluated for ulcers. Ulcers could be what is causing the problems you are having.
I feed all mine basically the same thing, just the volume differs. They get alfalfa/orchard grass - 2 sections 3 x per day. They are turned out too and then I feed them Equine Senior as it&#039;s low sugar/starch which prevents them getting hyped up but it has 14% protein and is high fat. I then add soaked beet pulp and corn oil and mine all look really good and have great coats.</description>
