About
Official Equine Nutritionist of the USET
You can trust the Saracen range of diets, whatever your horse's needs
Traditional
Saracen Horse Feeds is a division of the William Lillico Group of companies, which is an independent family-owned business with more than 150 years of experience in manufacturing animal feeds.
Innovation
Our feeds reflect the latest advances in nutritional research, continuing our investment in new manufacturing technology and advanced procedures in quality control. This ensures that when you feed your horse a Saracen diet, you will be offering the very best in nutritional care. You can rest assured that your horse is receiving nutrition that is based on the most up-to-date research available today ..... WHY? Because Saracen is the exclusive Team Member for Kentucky Equine Research (KER) in the UK. Along with a network of other international horse feed manufacturers, we are devoted to the advancement of equine nutrition. KER is one of the foremost authorities on equine nutrition in the world, and the team members receive constant feedback on their feeding trials and current nutritional research. We also have access to specific, patented vitamins and minerals to include in our feed formulations - these are only available to KER team members.
Caring
You know everything about your horse - personality, moods, likes and dislikes. You also want to keep your companion fit and healthy and, with our help, you can be reassured that the well-being of your horse is complete.
Making a difference
Our pioneering ration development programme has made a real impact on the care and welfare of horses. With the launch of our Veteran Mix in 1993, we made a difference to thousands of older horses with a diet specifically tailored to their needs. We feel that it is important to give something back to the horse who gives us all so much pleasure. This is why we actively support the important work the International League for the Protection of Horses does for less fortunate horses.
Helping you
At Saracen, we realise how confusing it can be for you, as an owner, trying to decide which feed you should choose from the vast range of products available to you in the market today. "Which brand?", "Which product?", "Will it suit my horse?", "How much should I feed?", and so on. To help you find solutions to your feeding problems, we are always ready to talk to you on our helpline, and we offer our FeedCheck service. This is an advanced computer programme that can calculate your horse's nutritional requirements, and is freely available to you via our FeedCheck form (find it in the 'Help & Advice' section of the website).
Saracen Horse Feeds have three primary objectives:
- To provide our customers with the most scientifically sound nutrition that money can buy
- To offer our customers the finest feeds through the use of state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, quality control procedures and the highest quality ingredients
- To help our customers achieve optimal productivity and performance from their horses through advanced nutrition and knowledge
Saracen Horse Feeds have researched and formulated a comprehensive range of highly digestible feeds so that every type of horse is catered for, in any given circumstance.
