Baileys are actually at Your Horse Live this weekend so if any HHO members are there they might like to put their point of view across to those on the Bailey's stand ...
The timing of the video being posted on LR’s FB page and the start of YHL was a fortunate coincidence, which may have moved matters on rather more swiftly that they may otherwise have done.

Is it winding everyone else up that people don't seem to know the difference between side reins and an elasticated bunge?

Also, from the video the horse certainly doesn't have a lot of room to move his head, even if it is elasticated. The purpose of elastic is to encourage the horse not to lift its head way above vertical (by providing resistance), not to keep the horse behind vertical.

It is bungee but it not good use of a bungee .
So many people on FB using bungee and side reins interchangeably. Pet peeve 😂

It is a shame Lynn has recieved death threats. I suspect she will be feeling victimised now, rather than wondering if what she did was actually wrong. Which might have happened, but maybe that is wishful thinking

Unfortunately this is a common practice in showing yards. I worked for the keens in Iver lasted 2 days as horses were tied down in draw reins for over an hour- I was a working pupil and was so upset by it I quit and I really needed the job!

I can beat that. Watched him and their groom take turns riding a hack in a double with draw reins for hours at NEC a lot of years ago. It went on the win the hacks. It must have been knackered.

What have I done ? I am always polite.

Your post in the thread Another reason to boycott Baileys... was deleted. Reason: Content removed under clause 4.4 (potentially defamatory). No sanction applied.

it means you haven’t actually done anything or breached any rule.... but you might have done!

I received exactly the same message recently for a totally unrelated (un)offence, when others who clearly contravened the rule were allowed to keep their posts on here 🙄

Was it the photos of Jovian that were removed? Was it copyright? I know they are hot on copyright, but at least one of the photos was grainy like it was taken an a mobile phone, so presumably would not have been copyright like a pro photo? The other photo did look like a pro one though.

I posted the two photos of Jovian at HOYS 2017 . That post was pulled, but whether that was to do with the photos or the comments I made on it, I do not know. I was rather disparaging of the judging.

I got the standard ‘Content removed under clause 4.4 (potentially defamatory). No sanction applied.’ message that others have received.

Oh, I didn't realise anyone had named a judge. Only because I could not name a single judge, for any showing class, and may have remembered a name if a name had been mentioned.
