About Connolly's RED MILLS
Generations ago, Connolly’s RED MILLS produced their very first batch of horse feed, specifically for a thoroughbred named Vulpine.

Our tried, tested and trusted formulations, locally sourced ingredients, and innovative manufacturing and testing technology are why we are a trusted global brand. We go above and beyond to ensure that we deliver the highest quality feed, performance and nutrition solutions for your horse. Our commitment to nutrition and animal well-being is what has underlined our ethos at Connolly’s RED MILLS for generations.
Each webinar will delve into a specific nutritional topic, offering practical advice for thoroughbred owners.
Some of the topics to be covered include:
- When you first get your Thoroughbred
- Preparing for Competition with your Thoroughbred
- Common Feeding Conundrums: Thoroughbred Edition
“We are excited to launch this webinar series with Treo Eile as a part of our commitment to supporting these Thoroughbreds new careers off the track,” said Jane Davis, Head of Equine Marketing at Connolly’s RED MILLS. “Speaking from experience, it takes a lot of care and consideration to transition these thoroughbreds to their new careers, but it is worth it. We are delighted to be able to provide owners with the nutritional advice they need to support their horses in this journey, and I believe correct nutrition can make a huge impact on the retraining process.”
Meanwhile, Anne O’Connor, Executive Officer at Treo Eile said, “We are delighted to have Connolly’s RED MILLS on board for this series of webinars. We are passionate about supporting racehorses in their transition from racehorses to riding horses. Thoroughbreds are fantastic athletes and suit a variety of disciplines including eventing, show jumping, dressage, polo, hacking and more. It is important that we support them in this transition from one athlete to another, with correct nutrition, care and management”.
