I am doing the novice ridden coloured horse class and I was wondering whether we need to wear a snaffle bridle for the ridden novice class? Also will the judge ride the novice horses?

The ruling for all Equifest classes - unless stated otherwise in the schedule - is "any suitable bridle" - so you do not have to use a snaffle unless you want to. Providing the horse goes well in the bit you will not be penalised. Horses (over 148cms for the natives and exceeding 153cms for the non-natives) will be ridden by the Judge - who is Tracey Southern - and is very experienced. Ponies will do a show in these classes.

Can confirm Tracey is a lovely ride judge, very soft and will give the novices a good ride.

Thankyou! Just double checking! The horse is used to lots of riders so not too worried about that, but did want to double check re correct bridle! See you all next week ;-)

Another vote for Tracey as a lovely rider, and super judge.
