Suitable for horses that:
-
Are forward going and need an immediate, clear signal
-
Compete in speed events and must come back quickly
-
Are trained and being reminded of aids they already know
How it works
Mouthpiece. 14mm, double jointed, with curved cannons angled forward to follow the shape of the tongue. The lozenge lies flat on the tongue rather than standing upright between tongue and palate, so tongue pressure is spread across the width of the tongue. There is no nutcracker action and nothing reaches the palate.
Cheek piece. The mouthpiece runs on the centre ring rather than being fixed to it. The first part of the rein aid slides the bit up the ring and raises it in the mouth before the cheek has finished rotating, so the horse is given a clear signal before the full pressure arrives. The lift raises the shoulders and brings the horse back onto its hocks, with poll pressure following behind it. A backstrap should always be fitted, as it stages the action and keeps poll pressure controlled.
