A running martingale is used to help prevent a horse from carrying its head too high, offering the rider more control over the horse's head carriage.
The neck strap should be adjusted so it lies flat against the horse's neck, with enough space to comfortably fit two fingers between the strap and the horse's neck. It should not be too tight or too loose.
Yes, the martingale rings are detachable. They can be removed when the martingale is not needed, and the leather fork can still be attached to the girth.
The LeMieux Kudos Running Martingale is crafted from exceptionally soft European leather.
It is recommended to clean the leather with a suitable leather cleaner after each significant use and apply a conditioner regularly, depending on frequency of use and weather conditions, to maintain its quality.
The silver attachments are designed for a sleek appeal. Like most metal hardware, they may require occasional polishing to maintain their shine, but are generally durable.
Ensure the rings are clean and free from dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of leather oil or a mild silicone lubricant to the clipping mechanism if necessary, but avoid over-application.
Clean the leather thoroughly and apply a generous amount of good quality leather conditioner. Allow it to soak in, then buff off any excess. Regular conditioning is key.
Check the adjustment of the neck strap and ensure the padded wither piece is sitting correctly without digging in. Slightly loosening the neck strap may help, provided it doesn't compromise function. Ensure the fit is appropriate for the horse's conformation.
Setup: Attach the martingale to the girth via the martingale fork. Adjust the neck strap so that it lies comfortably flat, with enough room for two fingers between the strap and the horse's neck. The martingale rings should then be attached to your reins. Ensure the martingale rings clip on and off with ease. When not in use, the detachable rein attachments can be removed.
Compatibility: This running martingale is designed to be compatible with standard bridles and reins. It is suitable for a wide range of horse types and sizes due to its adjustable nature.
Care: Clean the leather regularly with a suitable leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain its suppleness and longevity. Avoid excessive soaking. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Polish silver attachments as needed.
