"Hi, this is Mara Keith-Hunter for Expert Village. Today I would be talking about how to tack up a horse. Now adjusting the bridle and it has a flash. We are going to start with just the same basics making sure that everything is in the right place. We just don't have the 2-3 wrinkles from the bit. Now to put the nose band on you want to make sure that the nose band is really pretty snug cause that is where the base for the latch. You want to make sure that nose band is tighter or as tight as the flash. If the flash is tighter then the nose band it would pull the nose band down. So I could still fit a finger through here and you just check by sticking your finger in. Make sure that the nose band is tighter this looks good. Tucking in all the pieces into the keepers and again putting your throat latch on making sure that it is a little tight. Making sure you can fit your fist in there and then tucking each piece in. "
