What is the Bridle?
A bridle in driving has several roles. Primarily it is used to control the horse via the reins and bit. It is also used to provide blinkers for the horse to prevent it being frightened or distracted by the vehicle. It is very important that the bridle is correctly fitted to prevent accidents and for the comfort of the horse. If you are unsure exactly how this should be fitted it is very important to seek expert advise
