[madhector]

well I have ridden in a grackle so assume a mexican is ok too, but ready to be corrected

 

[CastleMouse]

Yes, if it is run under BE rules you would be allowed

 

[viola]

Thank you both Very happy to hear this as a cheeky chap I am competing tomorrow goes well in it

Mexican is really just another name for grackle

 

[Weezy]

Gosh I never knew that, I thought it was a real no-no!

 

[viola]

Oh no don't say that

I better take a normal boring cavesson with me too!

 

[KatB]

For BD not allowed, for BE yes allowed.

 

[madhector]

[viola]

Would you say it's fine then???

 

[KatB]

Yep, that is fine. aslong as running under BE rules and not BD.

 

[madhector]

mexican ones have rings, and grackles dont, but otherwise they look the same

 

[viola]

It's an Area 11 London & SE Horse Trials Qualifiers - it's run under BE and BRC rules.

 

[viola]

Ups, mine has rings

 

[KatB]

Yep, no probs there then. Def be ok with a grackle, whether be mexican or traditional.

 

[viola]
