I have a question about girth sizes. I measured my mares tonight so I can decide what size show harness I might need for spring. When I measured I went all the way around the belly behind the shoulders. The one mare was 54" and the other was 52". Keeping in mind that they have long winter hair and a small amount of extra winter weight on right now, is it possible that by spring with the loss of the winter hair and exercise that those sizes might drop an inch or two? Both have a big chest cavity as well. I also left a little leeway room when I measured.
I found a harness that I'm interested in but the problem is that at the biggest girth adjustment only goes to 51". Should I just wait until spring and remeasure them then and then decide?
I do have a biothane driving harness for the bigger of the two mares that I used this year at a rated show and I sort of felt out of place because I didn't have a nice show harness to use. That's why I'm looking for a show harness.
Thanks for any advice!
