Coolers/tips drying winter coats

Does anyone have a cooler they love?/any tips and tricks for cooling out with an unclipped horse?

I have had the best/fastest results with putting on a mesh/fishnet cooler, followed by a polar fleece cooler on top.

Fleece if a horse is hot and wet. Wool if they are chilly and wet especially if they’ve been rained on.

Old School trick:
Put a layer of hay between cooler & horse.
It forms a layer of insulation that speeds cooling out.
And later, it can be eaten :grin:

I used the blower part of my shop vac or a hair dryer if they are cold.

Work in sections and use a wool cooler to cover areas not being worked on.
