Feeding a founder horse

Hey everyone I?m looking information on what to feed my new horse that has founder in the past. Right now she is getting free choice of hay in the daytime, and at night time she gets one cup of equalizer. The more information the better :) I have been googling but just want to in void a founder when she come home to her new barn. Thanks

I?m doing payments to buy her off a 2ed cousin. I?ve know this mare for a few years right now what I was told is if they are inside she gets a slow haynet feeder. She is on a dry lot no grass unless they turn them out for a bit in the other pen. She said she did get X-rays done and she gets her hoods done every 6 weeks. I?ll ask to see them to get a copy, The new barn where she will be going she won?t be getting free choice of hay and she will also be coming inside at nighttime. I know it?s risky to get a horse who has founder.
Oh I forgot to add that she is a 15 year old 15.3 hand Canadian
Thanks for everyone?s answer but I?ve decided to pass on buy her.
