I need a new stable sheet for my guy since I don't like the way his current one fits at all. He's bulked out a little more since last winter and it is starting to chafe a little bit below his neck.

That being said, Horseware blankets fit him really well and that's what the rest of his wardrobe is.

I am just really indecisive on the matter. Should I go for the Amigo stable sheet. It's cheaper, for one.

Or should I buy the Rambo stable sheet? It's available in Newmarket colors and I think the whole inside is nylon lined, I am not sure about the Amigo.

This really isn't a tough question lol I just can't make up my mind.

I like the Rambo, but then again I'm a blanket addict ;-) Bottom line: the extra $40 is worth it if you smile each time you see him wearing it!

Yeah, it will look nice on him for sure since he's a dark bay.

I just wasn't sure if anyone owned either one of these sheets and for some reason thought that the Rambo was of better quality or was really worth the extra money... I mean, aside from the fact that he'll look stunning. :)

I think I might go up to Dover this week so I'll be able to check out both sheets in pesrson...hopefully.

I recently got an Amigo turnout sheet for both of my horses and so far have been very pleased. This is the one I got:

I'd go with the Rambo if he was my one & only and I expected him to be wearing it for a while!
Also, when I bought an Amigo for one of my ponies, it didn't fit quite like my Rhinos (I know they're supposed to...).

In general I've found that Rambos run a bit large compared to anything else. Maresy takes a 72 in a Rambo and a 75 in an Amigo.
