Weatherbeeta turnout rug sizing.

I always think of Weatherbeetas as normal sized - amigos as small, and mastas as big around the shoulder... What size does he normally take?
 
Only had him eight weeks. Old owners said he takes 5'9. Have tried my 6'3 Amigos on him and they fit fine round the shoulder and neck but are too long and hang over his bum a bit too much.

I haven't used WB for years and need to get the right size as will be ordering on line and don't want to have to send things back. I like a turnout rug to cover the back end well but don't want to drown him!
 
i always use weatherbeeta and i always buy a size bigger, my 15.2hh is in a 6ft 6 and although quite big on bum end they are perfect at shoulder and never slip x
 
Thanks Wonderwall. My old horse was 15.3 and I could get away with travel/ stable rugs as small as 6', but anything smaller than 6'6 in a turn out and he would get a wet bum!

Think I'll go for a 6' WB, he has a big neck and deep shoulder so will fill the front of a rug well.
