rugs again-help

[siennamiller]

just had a look at equestrian clearance and they have the weatherbeets landa lite combo which is full neck. It is just a rainsheet. Am torn between full neck as it says
"The lining helps dispel any warmth and excess moisture on warm, rainy days"


and a normal neck one.
this one could be a spare with rugs underneath for colder days, but does he need full neck this time of year??
He has to have something as he is an epsm horse
thankies

I am a fan of detachable necks - that way can remove when not needed

Even my boy in sweet itch gear hasn't got a neck on today (very wet), as just too warm. However I keep his body dry to avoid chills in his PJ's.

If you just need it as a rain sheet for day like today, I wouldn't bother with the neck - think it would be too warm.

cor, you two r lucky, its blooming cold here. oh, the dilemma!!
I really like the weaherbeeta tho, have one already which has been fab!

Is that the turqoise one that's in the sale? I got one for Ty and it does look smart. Think they come up slightly large though so if your horse is just in a 6'3" I'd go for the 6'0". Wouldn't be my choice for a TB as it's got quite big shoulder movement in it - but at that price I couldn't not get it!

Its navy/popcorn. He is tb x, has quite big shoulders so should be ok.

its such a good price isn't it!! decided bol**x, would just get it. handy as spare winter with other rugs underneath and its says it is idela for warm wet days as the lining is so good so ...

I prefer the detachable necks, you can use them with or without & they don't seem to rub the mane anywhere near as much as fixed necks.
