There is a lot of good advice above and resources at www.endurance.net
Never give a dehydrated horse elytes, it will pull more water from the cells and make him crash. Your horse has to be drinking and hydrated before giving him any.
Good luck on his first 50, if he has never done endurance before perhaps a limited distance ride to learn about the many factors involved in keeping the horse fit to continue may be beneficial....
