Running Martin Gale

Running Martin Gale

Running martingales consist of two rings through which the reins are threaded. The rings are held on a strap that attaches to the breast collar. Adjust the strap so that when the horses’s head is in an acceptable position, there is no downward pressure, but if the horse raises his head and neck, the rider can apply some rein pressure and the rings will direct the pressure downward. The rider, by tightening or releasing the reins while riding, can control how much and how long the pressure from the martingale is applied. Running martingales are usually used with direct pressure bits such as snaffles.  Also, always use rein stops with a running martingale. If the snaps on the reins become hooked on the sliding rings, a horse could panic and fall or rear. Adjust the martingale so that it only comes into play if the horse’s head is extremely high.  Designed to create a steadier feel of the bit in the horses mouth even with head movement and attempts at evading the feel of the bit.  Helpful for green animals who have yet to learn to seek the bit and feel comfortable with steady contact.  Encourages a steady head carriage and gives the rider a bit more control during disobedient sessions.
