Leaving sweet itch rug on in the rain?

[FestiveBoomBoom]

I bought a Rambo sweet itch hoody which isn't waterproof so I bought the liner separately online but it hasn't arrived yet and I'm going on holiday today. So, I want my boy turned out in his rug but what if it lashes it down? Do they dry relatively quickly? I can't really ask livery to keep taking it off and putting it back on but weather has been a little erratic here the last week, with a lot of rain - what to do?

I looked after a mare last year who had hers on, minus liner, in all weather with no problems. It does dry quite quickly and I never felt the need for a liner. When it turned cold in autumn I did put a lightweight rain sheet over the top if needed.
