Genie's usually in a jointed fulmer snaffle, although I'm playing around at the moment as she leans quite a lot. Currently in a jointed eggbut snaffle which she had when I bought her, and plan to try a loose ring lozenge snaffle. Don't really want to go stronger as she'll just ignore it!

For showing she's in a plain old jointed pelham which she loves, but again don't want to use it all the time!
 
Myler snaffle (the dressage legal one) for everything bar terribly exciting stuff, when I put a mullen mouth pelham in and use 2 reins.
 
Blade - loose ring snaffle with lozenge thingy
Welshie - loose ring cambridge mouth snaffle
Toby - same as above but cambridge mouth pelham (with two reins) for more 'exciting' things!
