$\"LightRider$ <\/a>All LightRider Bitless Bridles work the same way with ‘sidecue’ action and a unique releasing chinstrap.<\/p>\n
While any bridle could be used for any activity on a well-educated horse, some styles are more suited and look more appropriate for different pursuits.<\/p>\n
This chart will help you choose the best options for your preferred style of riding, equine sport, or your horse’s level of education.<\/p>\n
If you are still not sure which is the most appropriate bridle for your horse, you are welcome to contact Cynthia<\/a> for advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
