Mats Sweet iron Loose rings - Fager

It is here, the dressage legal version of the popular bit Claudia! Mats is a sweet iron double-jointed bit, designed with the sensitive horse in mind. Mats offers that extra bit of everything, just when you need it! Designed to follow the natural shape/contour of the mouth. It breaks towards the outside of the tongue, softening excessive pressure to the center of the tongue, allowing a more consistent feel across the mouth. Using Mats for a horse with a sensitive tongue you will discover that they become more willing to accept the contact and start to enjoy their work. It's a good option for horses that can get on and off in the contact, stiff and a little bit heavy but at the same time sensitive. Mats even suits horses whose mouth conformation has a low palate combined with a big tongue; this combination being extremely difficult to find suitable bits for.

Loose Rings are designed to move independently to the mouthpiece. This allows the horse more freedom to use his tongue, allowing them to place the pressure from the mouthpiece either higher or lower, whichever they prefer. Loose Rings are a good choice for a horse that can be slightly stiff or hard in the mouth.
