Abrown leather standing martingale, cob or full size. I like the ones with the elastic. Think it's going to be a fixture while we hack out, and am currently using a running one threaded through. Thank-you.

Sorry, I don't. But R is a head flinger and I have used the RearStop (like a harbridge I think?) from StopThatHorse on him and it's been fantastic - and super cheap.

Does he wear it all the time, hacking and schooling? Obviously it works, looks quite loose on the picture, kinder than a martingale then I guess?

Well, when I first got it he wore it everywhere (hacking and schooling - he is worse out hacking) and especially to stop him rearing which was ruddy scary! But very very quickly he got the idea that it was not nice for him to be naughty and has stopped. Now the teenager rides him in a running martingale.
The RearStop is there in the background if we need to put it back on him but (fingers crossed) we haven't for months. I think the fact that it attaches to the bit (but I'm no expert mind!) taught him very quickly that it was not in his interests to chuck his head around all the time. (I've had his teeth done, obviously.)
