Interesting - fly fringes, ear covers made legal by BD.

Just got my BD rule book and they have now made fly fringes and ear covers legal. Wondered if the lively discussions we had earlier in the year and Carl Hester defending himself ferociously had anything to do with it?

I noticed that. It is limited to outdoor competitions but is a real step forward. Obviously FEI rules apply for anyone competing FEI.

more bling opportunity! How long before we see sponsor logos on them like the SJers

Brilliant news for those of us with headshakers.

Tbh I would be happy to use ear covers made of the nose mesh (easy to spot cotton wool) - don't care what it looks like as long as the dobbin is happy.
