Known as the “core” muscle group, a horse's topline refers to the collection of muscles along the back, neck and hindquarters that are responsible for how a horse moves, jumps and pivots. Proper diet and conditioning are fundamental in supporting the health of this vitally important set of muscles.
High-quality forage paired with a comprehensive daily supplement, like one of the Platinum Performance® Wellness Formulas, deliver the essential nutrients, including amino acids, needed to support the health of the topline.
