The BR Thaxted is a bitless sidepull bridle in supple Italian leather. The softly padded 22 mm noseband passes the rein aid directly through the nose, a wide padded chin pad keeps the bridle in place and the anatomically shaped headpiece spares the area behind the ears. A curved browband with crystals and silver-coloured buckles finish it off. Reins are included.
About this bitless bridle
With a sidepull, the rein aid runs through the noseband instead of a bit. For this, the Thaxted has a softly padded noseband, 22 mm wide. When you apply rein pressure, the pressure goes onto the nose and, to a lesser extent, around the ears. There is no leverage as with a hackamore: the aid goes straight from your hand to the nose.
Under the chin sits a wide, softly padded chin pad that keeps the bridle stable. The headpiece is anatomically shaped and softly padded, built to spare the sensitive areas behind the ears. The leather is supple Italian leather.
For the finish, BR chose a curved browband with deep-set, securely fixed crystals, and silver-coloured buckles in nickel-plated brass. The reins are included; BR does not specify their type or length.
In competition
In Belgian showjumping, bitless bridles are permitted for horses, and the rules explicitly allow the reins to be attached directly to the bridle instead of to a bit. Separate rules on tack apply to pony riders, children's classes and young horses; check the rules for your class before you compete. In dressage, a snaffle or a double bridle is compulsory under the Royal Belgian Equestrian Federation (KBRSF), Paardensport Vlaanderen and the LRV, so the Thaxted is not a bridle for dressage.
What BR does not specify
A size chart, strap lengths, the type and length of the reins, care instructions and the country of manufacture are not included in BR's product information.
