The uniqueness of this leather fork martingale is designed to be used with a single or double training rein. The position of the button slot on the rein allows the rider to adjust the German styled martingale to help collect and balance the horse. It also promotes athletic carriage by helping the horse round its back while elevating at the wither and poll. Caution should be taken to not encourage flexion, which allows the horse to tuck his nose behind the vertical.
An alternative to noseband tiedowns. The leather browband applies pressure to the browband to help collect and balance a horse at high speeds. The browband is not designed to promote a low head carriage. Adjust the brow over the orbits of the eye (the bony prominence over each eye).
This quality german martingale allows the neck strap to hold the martingale properly in three different head-setting positions. A great training aid. Available with split or single reins.
