what make of bridle do you have

Solo has a lovely english leather one that was made by my local saddler for my forst pony for everyday, and then he has a 30 year old Jefferies double for showing, that was my mums!

Red has a Devoucoux head/cheek piece combo (bought for £20 at Bramham last year!!) with a Sabre crank noseband.

They share my Stubben for jumping!

Doug is in a Rhinegold bridle with Stubben extra full laced reins but had to swap the noseband with an English leather one I had been using on a bridle I made up as the Rhinegold noseband was certainly not extra full size. Mcfly is in a STS Sussex? bridle I think at the moment. It was a cheap buy as part of a job lot. He also has a brown bridle ( imported leather) which we were using but I like the bridle to match the saddle and it is black so we changed it.
I will probably get them a 'named' bridle at some point in the future though.
 
I have a £150 Stubben for Ty and a Barnsby (slightly finer) for Oscar.....don't do enough competing yet to justify a separate showing bridle
 
I have an ancient Stubben english bridle that I use without a noseband for starting youngsters, no posh one. Then I have 4 Western bridles which are one ear Billy Cooks with basket weave stamping. Not as naff as it sounds, and extremely plain and practical by Western standards, no silver anywhere. If I showed then I would expect to have to fork out upwards of $500 for a reasonable show halter.
 
I bought my mare a Kate Negus one at Badminton. Its absolutley stunning, I plan on using ot for schooling and when competing but have an unammed english leather one for hacking - when I eventually start to anyway!!!
