Amalia Dempsey says:
“I am extremely fussy about the gear I use on my horses, and bitless bridles are no different. This re-design of my original bitless bridle makes it even better!”
Check the sizing guide below to ensure you have the right size. (exchanges are welcome but shipping is expensive!).
This bridle does not include reins because it allows you to choose from the LightRider Reins available here or you may already have reins you can use.
I recommend you use scissor rein clips for easy change over to the leading ring which enables groundwork/leading/lunging or buy LightRider Reins that include rein clips to match.
Take advantage of the FREE email photo consultation to check the bridle fit and sizing for your horse within the 30-day return period (from the date of receiving). Simply email your photos of the head side-on from both sides.

Renata (verified owner) –
I bought the Cob size LightRider Amalia Biothane Bitless Bridle for my 14hh brumby who I’ll be breaking in soon so I haven’t actually used it yet. As soon as I saw it on the website I loved the design features, in particular the location of the jaw strap and anatomically shaped & padded headpiece. I already have two other bitless bridles which I’m not quite happy with and the Amalia was exactly what I was looking for.
Before purchasing the bridle, I contacted Cynthia to ensure I was making the correct choice for my horse. Cynthia watched 12 months worth of training videos of my brumby from day one before I could even touch her. She agreed I had chosen the right bridle as my brumby is always calm and responsive during her training.
When the bridle arrived it was so soft I thought Cynthia had accidentally sent me a leather one. It’s so much softer than my PVC bridles and I’m very happy with the quality.
Customer service is absolutely outstanding!
