“It’s a new world … It’s a new day!”
That’s the theme song that played as these young riders showed how well school horses can behave in a Nurtural bitless bridle. Maybe it truly is a new day – when people realize all they can do with horses … by removing the bit!
These girls are students from the River Ridge Riding Stables in Milton Ontario. Laura Colgan, the coach and owner, made the dramatic move of changing all her school horses to bitless bridles after one of her students started using a Nurtural Bridle from last year’s Royal.
Three times a day, from Sunday Nov 5th to the end of the Fair on Nov 12th, these young riders and horses put on amazing shows in the Spirit of the Horse Ring at Toronto’s Royal Winter Fair!
Laura directed them through all the basic moves that you want a horse to do: walk, trot, canter, turn circles, perform figure 8’s, do transitions, halt, back up — and even go over a 3 foot jump!
These are school kids, most with only 1-2 years riding lessons. These are school horses who had only ever been to one show. Zeus is a 7 year off off-the-track thoroughbred who has only been at River Ridge since July. Polar is a five year old pony, who is much happier in a Nurtural bitless bridle. Even 5-6 year old beginner riders took part in the show – to demonstrate that they could stop the horses in a bitless bridle.
