I'm not so sure for dressage these days as there is no novice presentation. Spare bits of harness are always useful (you should have them on the lorry if not on the carriage) but stating the obvious make sure that they are suitable for the harness that they are spare for!! I suggest you talk to some members of your club and see what they carry and then decide what you might need. Everyone is different. |

You can buy spares kits that look very smart in the dressage phase. However, using this (unless you can find a water/mud proof covering for it) in the marathon phase won't help it stay smart for very long!! Black tape, good binder twine, a knife and a lead rope for the pony are the most essential things in a spares kit for the marathon. |

As we are coming into the outdoor season, I am putting together my spares kit. As we havent been driving long, I have no spare bits of harness that I might need! Can anyone help? Anyone got an old harness kicking around that they dont want/use? Dont really want to buy new to go into a spares kit that might never be used!! |
