STOP SCRAPING THE WATER OFF YOUR HORSE! Since Atlanta 1996 we have known that using continuous application of cold water without scraping is the most effective way to cool down horses that are moderately to severely hyperthermic (rectal temperature in excess of ~40°C/104°F), especially in hot or hot/humid conditions.
