What a stroke of genius.  Lasagna is the obvious answer.  Why does lasagna
work as well as it does????  The noodles are packed full of extreemly
energetic molecules...the meat and cheese contain quadrillions of busy
protein molecules which re-energize the noodle molecules when they start to
crash. The tomatoe paste makes everyone work together synergistically.
     And Arabians are genetically coded to love lasagna as the receipe came
originally from Egypt.
     How to administer Lasagna????
     Cut the entire topoff the syringe and simply cram it in there--VOILA!
     Ideally the horse should receive a dose every ten minutes in order to
maintain optimum blood-lasagna levels.  Run a stretch of plastic tubing from
the corner if the horses mouth, along the neck(duct tape works really well
here) and tape your end of the tubing to the front of your saddle.Now you
are able to administer the lasagna  while riding!
   How to carry all the syringes? We will have to leave that one up to the
experts.
   For an absolutely fantastic lasagna receipe contact Suzy
 Hayes (hint...it comes in a box)
