[QUOTE="fence_it, post: 1469431, member: 30068"] I would not use HT smooth wire for horses, use coated at the very minimum. I've went out on repairs before where horses got themselves wrapped up in the fence and the owner had to cut them out of it. Often times the HT peeled the meat off their legs down to the bone. They just panic. Even did one repair where a black angus calf got caught in it. A net wire is a much better deal for horses, if the horses are respectful of the fence you can get away with 6 inch box woven wire. If they are prone to pawing at the fence 2"x4" non-climb is best.
