• A Running Martingale is used on a horse to give a rider extra control by preventing a horse from raising its head above a point where it can be controlled. The rule of thumb length for a running martingale is that it should be about the same height as the withers, it is not meant to pull a horses head down. A running martingale acts by adding leverage through the bridle reins to the bit on to the bars of the horse's mouth. This action is applied by a running martingale when the horse raises its head too high causing the martingale to put pressure on the reins. This pressure encourages the horse or pony to lower its head.
