Is it safe to use a running martingale when riding cross-country?

The running martingale is a training device used to 'set' the horse's head and aid in the horse bending at the poll and/or keeping him on the bit and not avoiding it. As long as a snaffle bit is used the type of saddle doesn't matter. When used the running martingale make sure to use rein stoppers so the rings on the martingale won't tangle with the bit.

What is better for a horse a martingale or a breastplate?

A breastplate is designed to hold a saddle in the correct position, preventing it from sliding back on a horse during exercise. A martingale can attach to a breastplate or to the girth (with a neck strap to align it) and runs from up to the nose band (standing martingale) or to the reins (runnning martingale). Both designed for "improved" control of the horse and the position of it's head. Trainers may use one method or another based on the difference in how pressure is applied to the nose or reins using either the "stand alone" style of martingale or the type that attaches to a breatplate. In my experience, the primary reason that people use a martigale that runs directly to the girth is that it is much less expensive than a breatplate plus the martingale attachments, especially if you have multiple horses with vastly differing body types.

What are Martingale dog collars used for?

AnswerA martingale is a piece of tack used on horses to control head carriage. It is seen in the jumping disciplines: show jumping, eventing, and hunter seat riding, as well as in polo. Martingales are not allowed in the sport of dressage.The two most common types of martingale, the standing and the running, are used to control the horse's head, and to prevent the horse from throwing his head so high that the rider gets hit in the face by the neck. When the horse's head gets above the point of control, the martingale places pressure on the head so the horse cannot raise it higher.When first using a martingale (or any piece of tack), it is appropriate to ride in an enclosed area until the rider is certain that the horse is under control.AnswerMartingales are used to control head tossing. There are two types of martingales. A standing martingale (English) and a tie down(western) both use a solid strap anchored from the breast plate to a nose band. The second type is called a running martingale. A strap is attached to either the breast plate or girth and splits into two straps, each with one circular ring at the end. The reins are passed through the rings and to the riders hands. when the rider pulls the slack from the reins it stops the horse from tossing his head.
