Sweet Iron Loose Ring Gag Eliptical Blue 145 mm

The loose ring gag stimulates the horse to bring its head up. It is often used with horses that run behind the bit and don't follow the hand as much as necessary. The bit can be used with one or two reins or with pelham straps. In most cases, the bit is used with two reins, one is normally attached to the bit and the other rein to the end of the gag straps. This bit is not suitable for the inexperienced rider. The Sweet Iron bits are made of steel and have a recognisable blue color. Sweet Iron will rust when it comes into contact with (air) humidity, the surface rust tastes sweet and naturally stimulates the saliva production. This will cause the horse to salivate more, which in turn will encourage a better acceptance of the bit.
