Hiya,

A friend is clipping my mare this weekend and im not sure which clip to have done? as I work mon-fri 9-5 and the light has finally gone I can only ride at the weekends which I hate! but I will be doing a bit of everything with her, my main thing is hunting but we are going to try some dressage and in door show jumping this winter, so what do you recon I should have done???

Thanks Steph.
 
is someone available to ride her in the week? because if you want to go hunting you may want to keep her fitness topped up?

clip wise id say a trace or a chaser, probably more a trace xx
 
I was going to say blanket as she will get quite hot hunting, but then with the hunting & SJ you will be standing around quite a bit so would be a good idea to have her quarters covered.
 
Why don't you do a variation on a blanket clip. Take the neck off, but leave the quarters on, so clip a straight line down from the withers, and joined at some point to a line drawn from the front of the hind legs.

I do this on my mum's horse as I can't get near her back legs
