What should you compare when choosing between a running martingale and a standing martingale?

When choosing between a running martingale and a standing martingale, consider the horse’s specific needs, riding style, and discipline. A running martingale is often used for horses that tend to pull or run away, while a standing martingale is commonly used for horses that need help maintaining proper head carriage. We recommend consulting with a professional trainer or equine expert to determine the most suitable option for your horse.

How to know if a horse needs a martingale?

Does a martingale slow a horse down?
