Why do horses get itchy?

[DAldr94141@aol.com]

Hi everyone. I have a question. Why do horses get so darn itchy when you give 
them a bath or just rinse them off? This may be a question for a vet. My colt 
gets the itchies very badly. He rubs his whole body on the wall, door, 
whatever is available to him until he rolls. Anyone know? Thanks, Deb
P.S. My mare does the same thing.
