Ideally, the braid will lay flat against your horse’s forehead, without impeding the fit of the bridle. In this blog post, we cover how to properly french braid a forelock for the show ring.

A Lesson in Perseverance

Anu’s blog is a chronicle of her dressage journey with Achates and Basilio while serving as a platform to showcase the diversity of the equestrian community. “I wish more people understood that horses are for everyone, regardless of their background or abilities. Horses are the most incredible animals that help us to learn so much about ourselves. I think that anyone who wants to have a relationship with a horse should be able to,” Anu explains. Anu also began the hashtag #EveryRiderHasAStory to continue to connect with equestrians around the world and learn more about their individual backgrounds.
