I like this fleece lining and my horse seems to like it too. It's a bit small, but since it fits under another duvet or sheet, that's fine. I love that it comes with dual buckle leg straps; They make it very convenient to put on, take apart for washing etc. I wish the strap around the chest was attached and didn't dangle. It's kind of weird strapping it around the horse like a belt and it slips off a bit if you don't fasten it properly. The front is closed so it has to go over the head (this isn't a problem for my mare but I know some horses don't like it). Overall I really like it and would recommend it. I will add that he does NOT have that weird tail. It has a normal blanket shape, is not closed at the back and has no tail strap.
