FEED ADVICE – DISCIPLINES

Feeding Polo Horses: The Ultimate Guide

Feeding polo horses requires a precise balance of energy, stamina, and recovery support. Polo is an intense and fast-paced equestrian sport, where horses need to perform repeated sprints, sharp turns, and sudden stops over several chukkas (periods), often in hot weather. Their performance depends heavily on proper nutrition, which fuels explosive speed, sustained energy, and rapid recovery between chukkas. In this guide, we will explore the best practices for feeding polo horses to help them stay at the top of their game.

What is Polo?

Polo is a fast-paced team sport on horseback that demands speed, agility, and quick recovery across multiple short, high-intensity chukkas.

Horses need a balance of quick-release and slow-release energy to perform at their best throughout the game.

Electrolytes and quality protein help replace losses from sweating and aid muscle repair between chukkas.

 A complete, fibre-based diet with added vitamins and minerals supports condition, performance, and overall wellbeing.

Understanding the Nutritional Needs of Polo Horses

Polo horses have unique nutritional requirements driven by the high-intensity nature of the sport. Their diet must provide:

Quick-Release Energy

Polo horses need bursts of speed for sprints, requiring easily accessible energy from carbohydrates.

Muscle Development and Recovery:

High-quality protein is essential for muscle maintenance, repair, and recovery between and after games.

Sustained Energy and Stamina:

The ability to maintain performance over multiple chukkas demands slow-release energy from fats and fibre.

Hydration and Electrolyte Balance:

Given the fast pace and physical exertion, particularly in hot conditions, maintaining hydration and replenishing lost electrolytes is critical.

Metabolic Requirements of Polo Horses

Polo horses face high metabolic demands, as they are required to perform repeated short bursts of intense activity followed by brief recovery periods. To meet these demands, their diet should include:

Carbohydrates: For quick-release energy to fuel sprints and bursts of speed.

Fats: For slow-release energy, which supports sustained performance over several chukkas without causing excitability.

Proteins: For muscle repair and recovery, helping horses to maintain peak condition over multiple matches.

Key Components of a Polo Horse’s Diet

Forage

High-Quality Hay: Forage should form the bulk of the diet, providing slow-release energy and supporting digestive health. Timothy, meadow hay, or alfalfa can be excellent choices for polo ponies, offering a good balance of fibre and nutrients.

Grass: Access to fresh grass is ideal, but it should be balanced with supplementary feeding to ensure consistent nutrient intake, especially during competition seasons.

Hard feed

Performance Feeds: Polo horses benefit from feeds specifically designed for intense work. Performance feeds typically provide a mix of quick-release carbohydrates and slow-release fats to ensure energy is sustained throughout the match without causing spikes in energy or excitability.

Balancers: A feed balancer ensures that essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids are supplied without adding excessive calories. This is crucial for maintaining muscle health and overall vitality – Did you know the Pure Feed complete range all include balancers so no need to add one!

Key Components of a Polo Horse’s Diet

Energy Sources

Carbohydrates: cereals like oats, barley, and corn provide the fast-release energy necessary for the explosive bursts of speed required during chukkas. However, these should be fed in moderation to avoid over-excitability.

Fats: Vegetable oils, such as linseed or soya oil, are excellent for providing slow-release energy. Fats help sustain energy over multiple chukkas without increasing the risk of sugar spikes or excitability.

Fibre: High-fibre feeds such as beet pulp or alfalfa are ideal for providing sustained energy while promoting digestive health and maintaining even energy levels.

Protein Sources

Alfalfa: A high-protein forage, alfalfa supports muscle health and endurance, helping the horse recover quickly after exertion.

Soybean Meal: Rich in essential amino acids, soybean meal helps maintain muscle mass and repair tissue after the physical demands of a polo match.

Linseed: Contains both protein and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting muscle recovery and promoting a healthy coat – Did you know all of the Pure Feed complete range already contain linseed?

Key Components of a Polo Horse’s Diet

Supplements

Electrolytes: Essential for replacing salts lost through sweat during matches. Electrolytes should be supplemented before, during, and after games to ensure the horse remains hydrated and avoids fatigue or muscle cramps. Did you know normal electrolytes can be corrosive on the digestive system and often contain hidden sugar? Check out Pure ReFuel for the low sugar and starch, digestive friendly recovery mash!

Joint Supplements: Supplements containing glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM can help support joint health, reducing wear and tear from the physical demands of the sport.

Digestive Aids: Probiotics and prebiotics support a healthy digestive system, particularly important when travelling to competitions or during periods of stress.

Hydration

Fresh Water: Polo horses sweat heavily during games, so constant access to fresh, clean water is essential, especially during training and matches. Hydration is vital for maintaining performance and preventing heat exhaustion.

Feeding Tips for Polo Horses

Energy for Performance: Provide a balance of quick-release carbohydrates for speed and slow-release energy from fats and fibre to maintain stamina over multiple chukkas.

Pre-Game Feeding: Avoid large meals just before games to prevent digestive upset. Light meals, rich in fibre and low in starch, are ideal before matches to ensure sustained energy without making the horse sluggish.

Post-Game Recovery: After matches, focus on rehydration and muscle recovery. Offer easily digestible feeds with moderate carbohydrates and high protein content to support muscle repair and replenish energy stores.

Conclusion

Feeding polo horses is all about balancing quick-release energy for power with slow-release energy for sustained performance, while also supporting muscle recovery and joint health. A diet based on high-quality forage, balanced concentrates, and targeted supplements will help ensure your horse performs at its best, both in training and during matches. Tailoring the diet to the unique demands of polo—where speed, stamina, and rapid recovery are key—will help your horse stay at peak performance throughout the season.

Hear from the Expert – Sarah Hughes’s Approach to Polo Nutrition

Sarah Hughes is a seasoned polo player with over 19 years of experience, competing in mixed and ladies’ tournaments across the globe, from 0 to 18 goal. She has represented England in international matches, including at Guards Polo Club and in India, the birthplace of polo, where she played on traditional Manipuri ponies. As an elite polo player, Sarah understands the demands this intense sport places on her horses, and why their nutrition is so important.

Polo ponies, often retrained ex-racehorses, are asked to perform at high intensity—galloping at full speed, shutting down quickly, turning sharply, and accelerating again, all while managing the rigours of close-contact play. This high level of performance requires the right fuel, which is why Sarah trusts Pure Feed to keep her ponies in top condition.

Pure Feed’s low-sugar, low-starch formulas, high in oil and fibre, provide the slow-release energy her ponies need to maintain peak performance throughout the chukka without becoming too excitable. This balanced approach ensures that the ponies remain focused and steady, even in the heat of competition. The feed’s inclusion of a balancer also covers all their vitamin and mineral needs, promoting fitness, condition, and overall health.

To support recovery, Sarah uses Pure ReFuel after matches. Packed with electrolytes to replace those lost through sweat and limiting amino acids to aid muscle recovery, it helps her ponies bounce back quickly, ensuring they’re ready for the next game.

With the help of Pure Feed, Sarah ensures her ponies are fit, focused, and fully prepared for the demands of top-level polo, both in the UK and around the world.

We bought a bag the day after I received the diet plan after she completely refused to eat her previous feed anymore and was practically starving herself. I have been slowly increasing the amount of the pure easy I've been giving her and so far she's loving it! It's a much easier way of feeding, very impressed!

Herbert has been on the Pure condition pellets for a week now and is loving it. His tummy is too, as no faecal water at all - rear end lovely and clean. I'm ordering a pure linseed with my next order. He's having some time off to get some weight on and is out on some grass in the middle of the tracks during the day. Thanks so much Pure Feed!

A huge improvement in her temperament and skin!
Bonnie is doing amazing on it! I started using it around 3 weeks ago and already there is a huge improvement in her temperament and skin! She still has enough energy for hacking 4 days a week and hunting every weekend too!

I have been using your feed for 3 years now and I can say that my 25 year old pony has never looked or moved better. He really struggles with the winter so we have him your micronised linseed alongside his pure veteran and his coat and weight maintenance was superb. With the two new ponies we have started to transition them over to the feeds recommended in the diet plan and they seem very happy. It is so reassuring to know that the ponies are getting everything that they need from your feed. So thank you and for all of your advice and knowledge.
