Hi,
I bought a new Elevator Bridle a few weeks ago and I have noticed he is now holding his head very high especially out on a hack, when I'm having a lesson in the school he's fine, buckles down to it.
He came with a martingale and as I can't use this in dressage I took it off about 6-7 weeks ago and he was slightly heady but nothing I couldn't manage.
Do I pop the martingale back on whilst out hacking and hopefully be able to take it off again later in time, or does he not like the bridle, OH will kill me if I have to buy another one, £220 is an expensive mistake, cos I had to have new reins as well.
Thoughts really appreciated.
