The Petros mouthpieces rotate preventing the horse taking hold of the bit and can be combined with any 3 piece bit. Often good for a horse that leans or tries to take hold of the bit. The Control Plate is set at 45° to follow the contour of the horses tongue. Consequently, a horse who uses his tongue as a means of pushing against the bit and therefore taking control, will draw back and tuck his chin in, coming back to a better point of control. This differs from a Dr Bristol which sits horizontlaly with the edge of the plate on the tongue.
The Loose Ring allows for immediate release and relief from tongue and bar pressure which will reset the bit in the horses mouth.
All our bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:
* oxidises easily
* encourages salivation
* helps bit acceptance
* is warm and sweet
Please note the blue will fade with use.
