Those of you with BFG's...

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy exercise rugs from, preferably a hi viz one? Henry takes a 7'3" turnout rug and is fully clipped. I'd like to get one like this but in bright yellow for the winter days:

However the largest one's I can find (4'6") look like mini skirts on him! Help!!

These Mark Todd ones etc all go up to 5ft.

My boy took 7ft rugs and a 5ft sheet was fine on him.

This says its extra large for horses 16.3 and above. You can get it in pink or yellow... I think Henry would like pink!

Equafleece ones are lovely & do a sheet that will fit horses that take 7'6". Their site is www.equafleece.co.uk

I bought one years ago & found the sizes were generous, Jim takes a 7' rug but if anything the XL is a little big on him. It washes up good as new, doesn't rustle or blow about, is waterproof (had my doubts but it really is) & dries in no time. There are cheaper hi-viz sheets but I'd say these are worth every penny & I'll be getting one for LU next winter - there's no way Jim's will fit him even if he does grow a bit more!

I can highly recommend the Mark Todd ones although my miniature boy at 17hh only takes a 4ft6!
