I don't wrap in the trailer. They get bell boots on to haul, but that's it. I used to be a freak about wrapping for every haul, but then I started dating a Polo player and he laughed at me for wrapping. They cram a huge trailer full of some of the top polo ponies in the world and ship all over the country bare legged. I do wrap when they're stalled up at shows and the like as though their lives depend on it though.

You are a trainer correct? My trainer always wraps when she hauls longer distances. We have a lot of local barrel races but TX is a big state so many are far away. I think if my horse got hurt because she did not use good judgement even in something as simple as leg wraps I would be more than upset. I never worry about my horse because I know that she is better taken care of than at my house. I like to think that my horse is worth just a little effort to keep her performing at her very best. I guess it is OK if the horses are yours

I am a trainer. If a client requests that their horses is wrapped, or wears shipping boots to haul, I am more than happy to fill that request. ;)
