Heres a ideal I came up with how to make one.

1. Put a fence post in the ground in the center where you want to build it.
2. Get a 30ft long string with a loop so you can hook it on the post.
3. Walk out from the post with the string
4. Walk around in a circle and mark on the ground with paint or rocks every 8 feet about
5. Put fence posts where you marked
6. Put up some type of fencing like the electric tape but dont **** it up or even a horse fence string.
7. Put about three strands up of fencing
8. Leave one section with only one strand and make a latch to look the fence to so you have a little gate.

I hope you have a very very gentle horse otherwise it won't work.

umm I'm just curious why?? I have never worked in a round yard before and don't really know what is needed

The post I quoted suggested using string to keep a 1000lb animal enclosed.
