I have an almost new (used about 2-3 times) New Cavalry bridle for sale. This is a higher end bridle, comparable to Beval and Edgewood. It sales for $269 new and the reins are $129. I'm looking to sell both the bridle and reins for $200. The reins have been used more than the bridle, but not much more. It is a square raised bridle and is nice thick leather. I have photos. The color is Newmarket and I can't remember the size. It fits Forest fine who has a normal TB head, and we put it on a QH that has one of those huge Hippo heads. The browband was a little snug on the Qh, but everything else was fine. All of the keepers are on the bridle. There is a spot on the noseband where the horse rubbed it on something. It is on the left side, and cannot be seen unless you are 6 inches from the bridle, even then you wouldn't notice it unless you knew it was there. You can feel it though. It doesn't show up in the pictures even though I tried to get a close up of it, it's just not enough of a difference to show. I might even throw in a bit. Would consider reasonable offers as well.

Lynn- New Cavalry is the brand name. It's just a really nice Hunter bridle. They are popular on the A circuit.
Michelle- It's not fancy stitched. I do have a ton of pics, but I can't post pictures. I can e-mail them to you though.

OK, email away! FlyACK1@aol.com. I was just looking for a bridle for Porter then stopped b/c I can't ride him forever now, but...I loff New Calvery bridles! I had a snake skin one made for Shorty. It had snakeskin inlay on the noseband and browband. Very cool. Too bad I can't get it sweaty, wet, or clean! Kinda an expensive opps! Ah, live and learn, and go to work to pay for these horses ;D

SENT!
I read about Porter, poor guy. At least he has someone who is willing to make sure he is taken care of properly. I hope he gets better soon!
