Bellbusk Saddlery Blizzard Bridle - Anyone Used it?

[sjp1]

Question in title really.

Am looking for a comfort bridle with a cutaway headpiee, but they all seem really expensive. I came across the Bellbusk Blizzard bridle which seems much cheaper. Has anyone seen one, got one - any thoughts?

I have one and it sadly is not up to the job it was designed for. The leather split where the reins connect to the bit and on the cheek pieces, if I had been out on our strong section D the birdle would have failed in use I'm pretty sure. The company were not in the least interested in the failing either so I would avoid them now at all costs! I had only used if for 10 weeks when this happened.
