Horse Quarter Marking Stencils & Tools
Quarter Marking Stencils & Tools — The Finishing Touch That Sets a Show Horse Apart.
Quarter markings are one of the most distinctive elements of a show horse's turnout. Applied to the hindquarters in the final stages of preparation, they draw the eye to the horse's topline and quarters, accentuate muscle definition, and signal to judges that every detail has been attended to. Done well, they elevate a good turnout to a great one — and with the right stencil and technique, they're achievable for any rider willing to practise.
What's in This Range
- Quarter marking stencils – Rigid or flexible plastic stencils in a range of classic patterns including shark's teeth, squares, diamonds, and chequers; designed to create crisp, symmetrical markings with a body brush or comb
- Stencil sets – Multi-pattern sets that allow you to mix and match designs across the quarters and hindquarters for a more elaborate show finish
- Quarter marking combs – Fine-toothed combs used to brush the coat in alternating directions to create checked or striped patterns without a stencil
- Coat gloss & finishing sprays – Applied before marking to enhance coat shine and help markings stand out more clearly against the coat
Tips for the Best Results
Quarter markings work best on a clean, well-groomed coat that has been brushed in the direction of hair growth first. Apply the stencil firmly against the coat and brush or comb through in a single, confident stroke. Practise at home before competition day to find the pattern and technique that suits your horse's coat and conformation.
