About The Worshipful Company of Loriners:
A Loriner makes and sells bits, bridles, spurs, stirrups and the minor metal items of a horse’s harness, together with the saddle tree. Therefore, the connection with horseracing seems a natural fit and Racing Welfare is extremely grateful for the support of The Worshipful Company of Loriners.
