When I showed quarter horses, I did the same thing. Blankets went on in the winter to keep from getting that shaggy look and the stalls were coated with sawdust. They were only turned out to pasture at night during the summer to keep the sun from fading their color. During the winter months, they were in stalls all the time with about 1-2 hours exercise time per day. I would do everything I could think of to get them use to noises and anything they might come across.
Now I don't show them anymore. They stay out on pasture 24/7 with no blankets or anything. They look pretty rough till they shed in the spring and the original coat color comes out.
Horse people are finicky people. My horses were exposed to anything and everything. Most I showed against acted like they have never been out of a stall. Mine were usually the calmest of the bunch.
