Cut that hay down! He is at risk of founder as is. Start SLOWLY with exercise. I would call a vet and see what you can do before you start any sort of exercise regime. How much (in pounds?) are you feeding him a day in hay?

Also, you should ALWAYS be checking blanketed horses. If they get wounded or something is strange, you will never catch it. Also, if they get wet under there and you don't catch it, you are just asking for colic.
