Hello,
A study has been published which suggests that rugs with a V shaped insert exert less pressure on a horse's withers than straight cut or cut back designs. Use this link to read more: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19398356 Does anyone know if any manufacturer, preferably in the UK, sells this rug design - if not, perhaps this is an opportunity for someone?
With thanks
 
The difference in pressure is not noted in the abstract... It would not sway me to buy over the other. Don't even know what a v shape is...
