Am I feeding him right?

Right now my horse gets a lunch that consists of Triple Crown Complete with rice bran, joint supplement, Suceed supplement(for ulcers), missing link for horses, and electrolytes. He gets hay in the morning and in the evening and sometimes i give him some hay scraps to munch on during the day. He currently needs to gain about 50 pounds, not much I know, but is what Im feeding him ok and will it help him with the weight? Is there anything else I should be giving him?

The lunch I feed him was recommended by his previous owners who had him on the same stuff, except for the missing link.

Oh and he is a TB about 8 and is rode 6 times a week for about an hour.

Thanks!

Feed him the Triple Crown at least twice a day. Is free choice hay a possibility--can you just let him have all the hay he can eat, or not? If not, feed the hay 3 times a day until he picks up.
Thanks Arrow you saved me alot of typing!!!

I would also add make sure he is getting the PROPER amount .... buy a kitchen scale at walmart and weigh the feed so you know how much he is getting
