About this piece

Sometimes horses will not tolerate a standard leather flash, but the rider feels that the horse needs something to add a bit more control. An elastic flash has helped in many cases. Lots of customers had great results using the elastic flash straps designed by Master Saddler Kate Hardt, and given us wonderful reviews. Event rider Tyler Cassells uses these on his horses and loves them. The flash attachments are available separately and are NOT included in this listing.

Sizing and fit

Bridlework comes in Pony, Cob, Full and Extra Full. Not sure which? Measure your horse's current bridle from buckle hole to buckle hole and send Kate the numbers. Browbands are measured end to end, between the loops.

Looking after it

Wipe off mud and sweat with a damp cloth, let it dry naturally away from heat, then feed with a good leather balsam. Kate uses and stocks Jeffries leathercare. Leather looked after this way lasts for decades.
