White ribbons on tails???

[Box_Of_Frogs]

Just been watching showjumping on Horse & Country. I know a red ribbon in a tail means a kicker but what does a white ribbon mean???

 

[piebaldsparkle]

Stallion, maybe, just guessing. Was it definitely tied to their tails??

 

[Blackhawk]

I thought it meant that it was a stallion.

 

[Box_Of_Frogs]

He he he PiebaldS...defo tied to tail and not diff bits!!!!!!

 

[Ravenwood]

I was wondering that too. I pretty much guessed it wasn't there for decoration as no one seems to even bother to plait anymore!

Stallions have blue ribbons - maybe it was light blue rather than white??

Stallions have white, red and blue ribbons - but they do look white as the blue and red stripes are thin.

Am talking BSJA here BTW.

Hope i get this right

Red - Kicker
Yellow - Caution may kick
Green - Young green horse
White - Stallion

Stallion ribbon is white with BSJA written in black along it with a line above that is blue and red alternating (best description I can come up with), they are suppose to wear red, white and blue ribbon but the official BSJA ribbon is pratically white.

Oh - so it doesn't mean Just Married then ?

If hunting a Stallion it should have a Yellow ribbon in it's tail.

But like other's said red/white/blue for BSJA though we never bothered we just put the disks on the bridle!

If I see a ribbon in a tail I jsut stay out the way no matter what colour.

 

[lucemoose]

Haha same..I about turn and head the other way.

white ribbon is for a stallion, for BSJA anyway.

it had bits of blue and red in it as well, like the union jack colours i think
