So that’s a halter. It’s used for moving the horse around on a lead rope. A bridle is used for riding. Leaving a halter on when a horse is turned out is personal choice/safety thing. I leave hers on at the barn she’s currently at because she can’t really get it caught on anything there, and it’s easier to take her in if it’s already on. She’ll be moving to a new barn in a couple of weeks and she’ll have things around that the halter can get caught on, so it’ll get taken off there. Some people take halters off to keep them in good condition. I know someone with a $200 halter, so they always take that one off lol
