Can you skip the supplements?  I ask as someone who's pretty skeptical 
of supplements unless there's some very specific call for them.  
Vitamins are nice, but they're easily added to a mere handful of sweet 
feed.  Is there a particular need for anything more??  We used to mix 
vitamins and carrots with a little applesauce to our fatty so he 
wouldn't feel deprived.  Sometimes took him longer to eat his snack 
because he had to lick up every little bit of the applesauce.... Now we 
don't worry about it because we've wound up with all three FAT horses 
so no one gets anything but vitamins, hay, and grass.
