Help finding a elasticated standing martingale?

[seabiscuit]

Does anyone know where to find one like this( I'm not keen on ordering from this place as they dont have them in stock- they only make them made to measure & I dont want to be waiting weeks on end!)

The only other types I can find are like this, which I dont like;

Any other ideas? There are loads of them used for racing but I can't find any in the racehorse tack shops

Most saddlers could let in a length of elastic into an existing standing martingale or attachment... PM me if you get stuck

Ooh really?! Thank you I will PM you!

The kate negus one is useless, unless you have the tinest horse in the world, same for the JW ones - they are just too short - about 10 inches too short.

The only one I found was on ebay for about £12, the leather is not english, but it hasasted about 3 years.

No one seems to sell nice ones that fit. If you do find a big one let me know where

I think beauchamps has posted a link before I'll have a look through the posts and see if I can find it for you

I think most of them are made in more of the JW style to make them safer just in case the elastic snaps.

we have the jw full size one on a very large 16.2hh and its fits fine with room to spare
