For instance, unless one is running a training stable, most horse owners are reluctant to invest a lot of money in occasional-use tack, like a surcingle, a training aid consisting of two wide, adjustable bands with a variety of metal rings on the sides.
When placed around the horse's girth area, this device can be used as a bitting rig, for longing, ground driving or to simply help keep a stable blanket in place.
While this type of surcingle might not be stout enough, nor recommended for, breaking colts, retraining problem horses, or actual driving, it is serviceable for introducing youngsters to the feel of the cinch and for use on horses that are already being ridden.

 DEFRA allows freeze-mark IDs - Horse&Hound online
Until 30 June, a freeze-mark certificate, including a silhouette drawn at the time the mark was applied, can be accepted as ID. Owners producing this document can have this scanned into the passport, avoiding the extra cost of having the silhouette re-drawn.
Although the deadline for owner-certified silhouettes has now passed, the backlog of applications means that many owners who applied before the deadline have still to receive their passports.
Alison Reeves, head of the horse passport and national equine database team, explains: "Where the application process was clearly underway before 1 February and the applicant has a legitimate expectation that an owner-signed silhouette will be accepted, such cases can be regarded as having met the deadline."
