Showing bridle

[dwi]

Daisy will be joining the RC in the new year and we would like to start doing some jumping classes as well as a little in hand showing.

Presumably in that it is riding club she could wear the same bridle for both without being penalised for not having a special in hand bridle?

I think that gypsy cobs look nice in a plain hunting bridle would this be appropropriate for a style?

Riding clubs are pretty relaxed. if she has a long face go for the flat noseband, hunter style to break it up. You can use a riding beidle for in-hand, but if you look about you can get pretty cheap in-hand ones which will help you stand out.

That is a nice bridle for a coloured cob - nice and workman like. Raised bridles are a bit of a no no really for these horses. Have a look at the noseband and see if you think she might suit a wider one. Star has a 1 1/4" noseband.

It's correct to show a 4yo and over in a ridden bridle, not an inhand bridle, so you'd be perfectly correct in the type of bridle you'd pictured.
