Hi Lisa, The Dressage model should be show legal, or at least, it was designed to be so. I think with the Classic it has to do with the stitching pattern -...
I ride my mare in a "riding halter", and she is so much calmer and more relaxed than she was in a bit. Her stop is better, if anything. I'm enjoying the...
