I am in a need for a breastplate or a breastgirth for the first time in my horsey experience and, after lots of reading and consulting other riders, I've come to probably choose a breastgirth, like this one:
Shires Blenheim Elastic Breastgirth
However, I've read on numerous occasions that breastgirths should not be used on horses with low-set necks, even in online tack shop breastgirth descriptions. As I'm not entirely sure, I'd like your opinion on whether or not my gelding has his neck low-set? If it is, I guess a traditional hunter breastplate is the logical choice? (I don't really like the look and the bulk of the 5-points)
