Description
Dr Cook Bitless Bridle, Brown Beta – large with medium noseband – good used condition
Beta synthetic bitless bridle, brown – used but in very good condition with many years of use left. The beta synthetic combines the strength of nylon with the easy care of vinyl – just dunk in a bucket of water, or machine wash (max 40 deg C) to clean. It is soft and kind to the horse whilst being very easy to maintain.
You can attach any reins to a Dr Cook bridle, so reins are not included. We do have brand new Dr Cook reins to match.
The price of a new beta bridle is around £75, however these are no longer available in the UK, and you will almost certainly have to pay import duty & carriage on top of that, so a used beta bridle makes perfect sense, especially in the current economic climate.

To measure your horse
Measure 1½” to 2” (approx 3 – 5 cm) up from the corner of the horse’s mouth. From that point, measure the circumference of the horse’s nose (noseband).
From that same point (1½” – 2” (3 – 5 cm) up from the corner of the horse’s mouth), run your tape measure up the side of the face, around the poll (behind the ears) to the same point on the other side of the face (headstall).
Another way of getting the headstall measurement is to measure (from 1½” – 2” [3 – 5 cm] up from the corner of the horse’s mouth) to the very top of the poll (to the point right between the ears) and double that measurement.
