The Bucas Buzz-Off Zebra range of fly and insect protection products with zebra print are made from a specially developed lightweight fine mesh fabric that blocks even the smallest of insects.
Research has discovered that flies hate the Zebra stripes as they find them confusing and so steer clear of them, which is perfect for protecting horses from those pesky insects.
The Buzz-Off Zebra Full Neck Rug provides body and neck protection for your horse or pony. The neck helps protect the mane from the flies and an elasticated brow band helps keep the neck piece in place as the horse grazes.

Whether out competing or returning from exercise with your horse hot and sweaty, the Bucas Competition Cooler is a ‘must have’ all year round.
Smart, practical and classically made the rug has a Stay-dry lining on the upper part and fly mesh material on the lower section.
It is the perfect light-weight cooler for travelling on warm competition days as the stay-dry lining will keep your horse dry and comfortable while the lower mesh part will cool the horse, allowing air to circulate.
This versatile rug is packed with innovative features to help make rugging easy and hassle-free.
These include the Bucas T-bar with Snap-lock closure, the Stay-dry lining, shoulder darts to help prevent rubbing, internal cross surcingles, silk-feel lining on the shoulders, fillet string, attachment points to use under any Bucas turnouts or stable rugs and attachment points for leg straps.
Available in the colour Black/Silver and Navy/Silver, the Bucas Competition Cooler is available in
sizes 5’0”-7’0”, priced at around £91.

In this issue, the team at Bucas provide advice on travelling your horse and offer tips on how to do this safely and what to consider before setting out.
Whether you’re travelling to a competition, the vet or the farrier, making sure your horse is safe whilst travelling is key.
Travelling can be a stressful time for your horse, so it is important to reduce this for them as much as possible which also means you will be calmer and more relaxed.
The first thing to consider is the type of horsebox or trailer that you are using. Choosing the right kind of horsebox is very important to ensure that your horse’s journey can be as smooth as possible and that there is enough room. Things to consider include the size, weight, ramp and loading, and rear, front or herringbone facing travel for your horse.

Travel boots are essential for protecting your horse’s legs from knocks and scrapes whilst travelling.
The new Bucas 2020 Boots are made of tough outer nylon fabric and a stay-dry inner lining.
Made with cushioned padding the boots will fully contour to the horse’s legs. Features for a secure fit include three large straps on the front boots, four large straps on the rear boots and elasticated top and bottom straps.
The unique front boots close differently to normal traditional travel boots. The straps fasten forward which means the boots close across the tendons, leaving the back of the knee open for ease of movement, whilst still covering the front of the knee to prevent injury.
The stay-dry lining helps to dry wet legs faster so that by the time you finish your journey home and remove the travel boots your horse’s legs will be dry and comfortable!
The boots are available in Full and Cob in the colours black or navy.
RRP for the 2020 Travel Boots is £125.
