roundings???

[el_Snowflakes]

Evening all,

I am currently riding my horse in a loose ring french link as we are having a break from her Nue Schule Tranze Lozange Elevator as she was beginning to lean heavily on it. I intend to swap the bits regularly as she tends to go great for a while then gets heavier and heavier......

Anyway, I have a show at the weekend. Its not an ultra serious show but a charity event but i would like her to go as well as i know she can ( im doing,a jumping class and a riding club horse class along with a ridden pre veteran) I am considering using roundings with the elevator bit but have never used them before. (obviously im planning on trying this out prior to show!) I have never used a pelham so would not attempt it myself. Has anyone used this combination? My aim is to improve her head carriage during the show. If anyone has used this combo I would love to hear from you!!

Riding Club Horse you will be expected to show in a snaffle.

Thanks Piebaldsparkle is this still the case for local level shows?

Yes - Well all the ones I have been to it was.

ETA - Once had to take my Double Apart as had forgotten it was Snaffles only for Riding Club Horse.

TBH Your horse would probably be better in the snaffle for the Pre Veteran Class too and just use the Elevator for the Jumping (if you want).
