  1. sweet feed or rolled oats usually provides that burst of energy in horses. But some horses, it doesnt effect at all.


  2. Any feed that is grain based is going to provide the "most" energy -- but not the HEALTHIEST energy.  If you want your horse to be "crazy" energetic, and unhealthy, then a cheap grain from the local feed store is what you want.  

    But if you want him to be calm and still have plenty of energy to complete his work, then you need healthy energy.  Healthy energy for horses comes from forage-based products, such as hay, beet pulp, alfalfa cubes, etc.  

    To get a horse to his maximum potential you also need to provide superior nutrition, such as through a high quality food like a ration balancer.

    The website I referenced contains a LOT of great info on ration balancers and feeding your horse the healthy way, I suggest you check it out!
