As a proud owner of a Thoroughbred, you know your horse is part of a breed in a league of its own. With their sleek bodies built for speed, high withers, and a spirit that just won't quit, these horses require special care and attention – which extends to their blankets too!
Our VTEK® Wither Relief blankets are designed with love and precision for high-withered horses like Thoroughbreds, ensuring they're comfortable in their blankets. This fit is specifically designed to prevent rubbing and relieve pressure on moderate to high withers. The upright shoulder and shape over the withers are tailored to fit breeds with similar conformations as Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, Appendix horses, or those with upright shoulder conformation. Additionally, the blanket extends 6 to 8 inches onto the mane, with fleece placed where the mane meets the sheet, providing extra protection against rubbing. Let's trot through our top five blankets that are perfect for Thoroughbreds.
