I believe that you can increase the amount of hay/grazing time. Increase his grain. Try putting some oil on his feed. You'll have to have your vet recommend what kind of oil to put on the feed.

Also consider his age (not sure how old the horse is).

Some alfalfa hay?
Add some fat to your horses diet. Some probiotics have been found to help the nervous and otherwise stressed horse to regain an intestinal balance of digestive enzymes. Keep in mind that this process may take a few days to show any signs of success! When you use a high fat formula, you can afford to feed the horse less, which will cut back on colic. You can find formulas with varying levels of fat at your local feed supply store.
A vet can help you a lot with this one. Good luck!
