Hi Paul,
	I've used Purina Equine Senior for years (for my not yet senior 
horses).  I switched to it for xp2001 because I knew there were Purina 
dealers all over the country.  As I remember, even Strategy has some 
beet pulp in it which is why I haven't been using it.  My horses find 
Eq. Sr. a very tasty vehicle for whatever I put with it, including lots 
of sloppy wet beet pulp at rides!
