I have barley in my mix 365 day's a year, think I've fed more this month for the moult & a certain % in my racing mix. My ybs have been on Centenary mix although not raced which is a high carbohydrate mix think it was about 60% or so on the bag with added barley.

I feed Barley every day including Thursday just changing fats as the wind / distance dictates
Yet the traditional way is barley then on to a super widowhood type feed I don’t think I will ever understand that way of feeding why use a widowhood mix with a few peas in at the end of the week when you need carbs and fats then

I suspect Neil it’s down to tradition, a good fancier does it and others simply follow without question.
