This bit lies very still in the horse‘s mouth as the cheeks prevent the bit from being pulled through the mouth. It avoids inconvenient pressure on the back teeth. The mouthpiece remains in the correct central position, letting the rein aids work perfectly with the horse‘s mouth. The cheeks are most helpful with turning aids, especially with young horses. The gentle pressure against the face on the outside of the turn supports the rider‘s aid, making turns much easier for the horse to understand and for the rider to carry out. The upper part of the cheeks are curved outwards away from the horse to avoid uncomfortable pressure on the jaws.
