Gd's doing her first hunter trial next week, and XC rally on Saturday. Pony is sweet natured and genuine but a bit green so just going for experience. She was beautifully behaved out hunting so I'm fairly confident she'll behave but I am going to put her in something a bit stronger than her usual snaffle for safety.
She was in a gag for hunting but really didn't need anything quite that severe, and I hate over-bitting so we're thinking of trying a uttoxeter kimblewick. Do you think that sounds a reasonable compromise? At the moment she has a running martingale, does anyone know whether it's compatible with a kimblewick? My instinct is to take it off, but I'd value advice on this
