Hi,

i have just started out with horses, i know a few things,

but others i dont,

i help look after 2 horses and two ponies,

the only tack i know is,

saddle
gerth
bridle
bit
stirrups
curry comb
soft brush
hard brush / dandy brush
hoof pick
lead rope
head collar

what else am i missing, please tell me names and what this tack does,
i know this looks like im stupid but its not hard, everybody has to start someplace.

i also would like info on what types of horses there are and how big they get, also i wanna know simple things, hints and tips xx

I am 5'4 so for you I would look at 14hh-15hh. 20GBP is pretty good.
